First Appeal No.230/2017 with

:: 5 ::
Heard learned counsel for the parties. The dispute
pertains only to the date from which the interest is to be
awarded. The Reference Court has granted it @ 9% p.a. from
the date 20/8/2004 i.e. on which the Notification under
Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act was published. The
learned counsel are at one to submit that, in view of the
judgment in the case of State Vs. Kailash Shiva Rangari [2016
(3) Mh.L.J. 457], the interest ought to have been awarded
from the date of award. In the present case, the date of
award is 3/10/2013. To that extent, the impugned award
passed by the Reference Court needs to be modified. Hence
the order :
ORDER
(i) In clause 5 of the impugned award dated 3/10/2013,
the date 20/8/2004 be replaced with 17/4/2006. To that
extent, the award stands modified. Rest of the terms of the
award to stand unaltered.
(ii) The amount in deposit with this Court/ Reference Court
be paid to the claimants in terms of the modified award and
the balance amount be paid back to the acquiring body.
