SPL.RAHSILDAR(LA) UNIT-IV TNHB vs POONGOTHAI — SLP(C) No. 13054/2011

The Supreme Court dismissed multiple Special Leave Petitions filed by the Special Tahsildar (Land Acquisition), TNHB against the Madras High Court's judgment, which had reduced the market value of acquired land from Rs. 7,000 per cent to Rs. 6,000 per cent. The Court found the petitioner's explanation for the delay of 222-303 days unsatisfactory and upheld the High Court's concurrent findings on land valuation, rejecting the petitioner's arguments. The Court directed state authorities and the Tamil Nadu Housing Board to pay compensation to respondents within three months and imposed costs of Rs. 25,000 on each petition, to be deposited with the Madras State Legal Services Authority within one month.
