Case Summary: Meharban & Ors. v. The State of U.P. & Ors. Court Decision: The Supreme Court allowed appeals by landowners and set aside the High Court's compensation reduction, modifying reference court awards upward. For Quasimpur Nagla Tashi (235.95 acres), compensation was increased to Rs. 175/sq. yard; for Mukarabpur Palhera (416.5 acres) and Dantal (105.23 acres), to Rs. 85/sq. yard, plus 30% solatium, interest at 9-15% per annum, and 12% additional amount under Section 23(1-A). Key Reasoning: The Court rejected unauthenticated sale deeds as evidence but relied on a final award of Rs. 70/sq. yard from similar land acquired nearby as the base value. Considering Meerut's rapid development, proximity to highways, and building potential, the Court applied reasonable price appreciation over the years between notification and judgment dates.
