Case Summary: State of A.P. v. Vemulapally Sathyam (C.A. 1195/2003) Outcome: Supreme Court allowed the State's appeal, setting aside the High Court and Land Reforms Appellate Tribunal orders that had excluded 2 acres 3 guntas from surplus land in a land ceiling proceeding. The Court held the land transferred under an unregistered 1955 agreement remains part of the original owner's holding under land ceiling law. Next Steps: Matter remitted to the Land Reforms Appellate Tribunal to determine whether the 2.3379 hectares of surplus land should be deducted from lands within the ceiling area retained by the original owner (N. Ranga Rao) rather than from lands transferred in 1955. The Tribunal directed to pass final orders within six months.
