https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=282050 Section 25 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 was held not to bar the appellants' claim for additional market value and interest because it only prevents reduction of compensation below the Collector's award and, being substantive, does not apply retrospectively absent clear legislative intent. The Court also found that possession had been retained without the support of a surviving acquisition notification, so the appellants could not be denied monetary relief for the intervening period. Additional interest at 15% per annum was therefore granted for that period, while the remainder of the High Court's approach was left undisturbed. en-us Thu, 17 May 2007 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 19 Jul 2019 15:35:46 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=282050 Section 25 of the Land Acquisition Act, 1894 was held not to bar the appellants' claim for additional market value and interest because it only prevents reduction of compensation below the Collector's award and, being substantive, does not apply retrospectively absent clear legislative intent.
