casestatus.in Summary

Summary of Pune Cantonment Board v. M.P.J. Builders (1996) The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and upheld the GOC-in-Chief's cancellation of a time extension for building construction. The builders' original sanction (1981) expired in 1983, but no construction had begun by 1985 despite intervening building bye-law restrictions. The Court found the Cantonment Executive Officer's extension order (1986) lacked jurisdiction and reasoning, violated statutory limits on extensions, and arbitrarily disregarded changed circumstances. However, the Court permitted the builders to retain and complete the partially constructed structure. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
