Present: Counsel for applicant.
Arguments heard on the application u/s 152 r/w
Section u/s 151 CPC.
Main file has been received. Record perused.
Perusal of record shows that vide Judgment dated
14.05.2025, Ld. Predecessor of this Court had adjudicated the
market value of A Category land of village Ghoga acquired
through award No. 05/1998-99 as Rs. 11,92,000/- per acre. The
land of petitioner in the present case is of B category also. Hon'ble
High Court of Delhi in a case titled as
Jai Singh Vs. UOI, LA
No.266/08, decided on 23.08.2011 (Delhi High Court) had
adopted/ used a formula for determination of fair market value of
Category B as well as Category C land vis-a-vis land of Category
'A'. In Jai Singh's case fair market value of Category B land was
adjudicated to be 2.5% less than fair market value of Category A
land and fair market value of C category land was adjudicated to
be 2.5% less than fair market value of Category B land. I find no
impediment in adopting/relying upon the formula adopted by
Hon'ble High Court of Delhi in said case. In fact this court is under
an obligation/duty to follow the orders passed by Hon'ble High
Court of Delhi as well as Hon'ble Supreme Court of India. On
applying the formula adopted/used by Hon'ble High Court of Delhi
in Jai Singh's case (Supra) the fair market value of category B land
of village Ghoga acquired by same Notification is calculated to be
2.5% lesser than the market value of category A land. Hence, the
market value of category B land of Village Ghoga acquired by
