casestatus.in Summary

Summary of Meharban & Ors. v. The State of U.P. & Ors. (1997) The Supreme Court partially allowed appeals by landowners challenging land acquisition compensation determinations for Meerut City development. The Court revised compensation rates upward: Rs. 175/sq.yard for Quasimpur Nagla Tashi (from High Court's Rs. 75) and Rs. 85/sq.yard each for Mukarabpur Palhera and Dantal villages. The Court held that sale deeds without witness examination were inadmissible and based compensation on the finalized Rs. 70/sq.yard award (for comparable lands acquired in 1980), adjusting for reasonable price appreciation over time given Meerut's development as an industrial-commercial city. Claimants were awarded 30% solatium, interest at 9% (first year) and 15% (thereafter), and additional compensation under Land Acquisition Act Section 23(1-A).
