DELHI DEVT.AUTH. vs LOW INCOME FRIENDS COOP.H.B.ST.LTD.&ORS. — C.A. No. 4664/2013

On 14 May 2013, the Supreme Court granted special leave and set aside the High Court's judgment directing the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) to allot land to 88 members of the Low Income Friends Cooperative Housing Society. The Court found the High Court had insufficiently examined whether land acquisition and formal applications were prerequisites for allotment, relying solely on a 1989 Lt. Governor order without legal analysis. The matter was remitted to the High Court for fresh consideration in accordance with law, with both parties permitted to file additional documents and amend pleadings; no costs awarded.
