Case History
Summary: SLP(C) No. 16542/2011 - GR. NOIDA Industrial Dev. Auth. v. Raj Bala Devi The Supreme Court dismissed special leave petitions challenging the Allahabad High Court's order quashing land acquisition of 156.903 hectares in Village Shahberi. The Court upheld findings that Greater Noida's acquisition invoking urgency provisions under the Land Acquisition Act, 1894, was colourable exercise of power—the real purpose was allotting land to builders for residential complexes, not industrial development. Over 90 hectares were allotted to builders within months of acquisition. The Court imposed ₹10 lakh costs on the Authority and clarified that investors in builder projects are entitled to refunds with interest.
