casestatus.in Summary

On 01-10-2002, the Supreme Court heard Civil Appeal No. 1707 of 1999 (along with related appeals 1708-1711/1999) filed by Omprakash's legal representatives against the Union of India regarding land acquisition compensation. The Union of India failed to appear despite notice. The Court found the appellants' claim for interest on compensation sums under Sections 23(1-A) and (2) of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 was well-merited and covered by the Constitution Bench judgment in Sunder v. Union of India (2001 (7) SCC 211). The Court modified the impugned judgment to grant interest entitlement and disposed of the appeals with no order as to costs, stipulating that any future reduction in compensation quantum by the Union would proportionately reduce interest payable.
