Lead case: C.A. No. 9702/2024
Summary: C.A. No. 009705/2024 (Byramjee Jeejeebhoy Pvt. Ltd. v. MCGM) Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed appeals by writ petitioners who had surrendered reserved land and constructed amenities (development plan roads) at their own cost. The Court set aside dismissals based on delay and laches, holding that such delays do not bar compensation claims in land acquisition matters. The Mumbai Municipal Corporation is directed to grant additional FSI/TDR to applicants within three months based on the Godrej & Boyce I precedent. Key Holding: Delay and laches cannot be invoked to deny compensation (in FSI/TDR form) for amenities developed on surrendered land, as compensation rights constitute vested constitutional rights under Article 300-A. The Court rejected the Corporation's argument that the 2016 regulation amendment had retrospective effect. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
