CASE SUMMARY: Savitri Devi Nagar v. State of Uttar Pradesh (C.A. No. 002432/2026) The Supreme Court modified the High Court's judgment on land acquisition compensation. The appellants' land was acquired in 2004 under the old Land Acquisition Act, 1894, with writ petitions filed in 2005. The High Court had set the compensation valuation date as 01.01.2014 (when the 2013 Act came into force), but the Supreme Court modified this to 01.01.2020—the date when the Constitution Bench settled ambiguities regarding Section 24(2) of the 2013 Act in *Indore Development Authority v. Manoharlal*. The Court granted appellants the right to compensation calculated based on land value as of 01.01.2020 under the 2013 Act provisions, and extended a six-month period for authorities to decide on utilizing the acquired land, after which appellants may seek revival of proceedings if unused.
