Case Summary: MEHARBAN & ORS. v. THE STATE OF U.P. & ORS. (C.A. No. 009004/1995) Court Decision: The Supreme Court allowed the land owners' appeals and enhanced compensation for three villages' land acquisitions for Meerut City development. For Quasimpur Nagla Tashi, compensation was increased to Rs. 175/- per sq. yard; for Mukarabpur Palhera and Dantal, to Rs. 85/- per sq. yard, along with solatium at 30%, interest, and additional amounts under Section 23(1-A) of the Land Acquisition Act. Key Reasoning: The Court applied the principle of determining market value from the perspective of a willing vendee, rejected unauthenticated sale deeds lacking witness examination, and instead used a finalized reference court award of Rs. 70/- per sq. yard as the foundation, adjusting upward to account for reasonable price appreciation over time given Meerut's rapid development and the lands' immediate potential for building purposes.
