revenue record mutating the name of

legal heir of Vijayaben-daugher of

Jasmatbhai Bhikhabhai namely Samubhai

respect to the land bearing Survey No.497

admeasuring 4 Acres and 24 Gunthas and Survey

No.499 admeasuring 3 Acres in favour of

Dinanath Poonamchand. In the sale-deed it was

mentioned that there was a mistake in the

measurement of Survey No.497 and process was

going on for correction of the same and the

seller received the whole consideration. Heirs

of deceased Samubhai Kanjibhai i.e. Valiben,

Laxmiben and Dinbandhu Dinanath signed the

sale-deed as witness. Revenue Entry No.1097

dated 12.09.1980 was entered into the revenue

record recording the registered sale-deed

No.1965 dated 31.03.1980. It appears from the

record that Revenue Entry No.1251 dated 20th

September, 1984 was mutated showing the Survey

with respect to the Survey No.497 recording

that Uttamram Bhagwandas is having the half

share in the property as per the application

resurvey took place in the year 1992-93 and

3.7. Town Planning Scheme No.7 (Vesu-Magdalla)

was made applicable to Survey No.320 as per

the public notice dated 02.07.1994 in the

Newspaper.

3.8. As per Form F prepared under the Town

Planning Scheme No.7 (Vesu-Magdalla), the

Survey No.497 was showing 30,166 Sq.Mtrs.

3.9. Dinanath Poonamchand passed away on

07.04.2000 and Revenue Entry No.2390 dated

03.05.2000 was mutated in revenue record in

names of legal heirs of Dinanath Poonamchand

namely (i) Pravinaben-widow of Dinanath

Poonamchand (ii) Dinbandhu Dinanath and (iii)

Deepikaben @ Dimpleben Dinanath.

3.10. Uttamram Bhagwandas relinquished his

rights in land bearing Survey No.320 in favour

of legal heirs of Dinanath Poonamchand and

Revenue Entry No.2558 dated 17.05.2001 was

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

entered into revenue record deleting his name.

3.11. On 19th January, 2010, legal heirs of

Dinanath Poonamchand made an application for

entering the names of Anupamaben Dinbandhu

Dinanath-widow of Dinbandhu Dinanath, minor

Abhishek Dinbandhu, minor Yashswi Dinbandhu

and minor Dharmapal Dinbandhu in revenue

record and Mutation Entry No.5809 dated

27.01.2010 was made in revenue record

recording the same. Pravinaben Dinanath

Poonamchand passed away on 22.04.2011. Before

her death, she executed a registered Will

whereby, her share was bequeathed in favour of

Dinbandhu Dinanath and Revenue Entry no.6814

dated 14.06.2012 was made in revenue record to

that effect. Objections were raised with

regard to Mutation Entry No.6814 dated

14.06.2012. The Mamlatdar registered the case

as RTS/Objection Case NO.100/2012. By order

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

dated 15.01.2012 passed by the Mamlatdar, the

objections were allowed with a direction not

to certify Mutation Entry No.6814 dated 14th

June, 2012 with respect to Survey No.320.

3.12. Thereafter, Mutation Entry No.6821 dated

15th June, 2012 was entered in revenue record

entering the names of legal heirs of late

Pravinaben-widow of Dinanath Poonamchand

namely (i) Dinbandhu Dinanath and (ii)

Deepikaben @ Dimpleben Dinanath whose names

were already on record. Therefore, the name of

Pravinaben Dinanath was deleted.

3.13. In the meanwhile, application dated

17.02.2010 was made by legal heirs of

Lakhiben-widow of Gandabhai Devabhai namely

Thakorbhai Gandabhai and others through their

power of attorney Shaileshbhai Dhanubhai

Chowdhari to the Deputy Collector, City Prant,

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

Surat stating that land bearing Survey

No.499/3 admeasuring 1 Acre and 5 Gunthas and

Kharabo land admeasuring 09 Gunthas, total

admeasuring 1 Acre and 14 Gunthas was in name

of Lakhiben-widow of Gandabhai Devabhai.

However, it appears that during resurvey, the

land bearing Survey Nos.497 and 499 merged

together to form a New Survey No.320 and by

mistake, Survey No.499/3 admeasuring 1 Acre

and 14 Gunthas was not separated. Therefore,

the application was made to do the measurement

with respect to Survey Nos.320 comprising Old

Survey Nos.497 and 499 and separate the land

bearing Survey No.499/3 admeasuring 1 Acre and

14 Gunthas out of the Survey No.320.

3.14 The Deputy Collector, City Prant, Surat

called for relevant record from the Office of

the District Inspector Land Record (for short

'the DILR') and reports/opinions from all the

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

undefined

concerned departments. As per the report sent

from the Office of the DILR dated 19.10.2011,

it was stated that the land bearing Old Survey

No.497 was 4 Acres and 33 Gunthas from 1955-56

to 1972-73 but as per the Mutation Entry

No.1251 dated 20th September, 1984, the Survey

No.497 is showing 28,025 Sq.Mtrs instead of

19,526 Sq.Mtrs without there being any record

or order regarding the change of such

measurement on the basis of the Hissa Form 4.

3.15. Considering the submissions of all

parties, reports from the Office of the DILR

and original record from the year 1948-49 till

the year 2014, the Deputy collector came to

the conclusion that name of Lakhiben-widow of

Gandabhai Devabhai has not been entered into

the revenue record from the year 1955-56 with

respect to Survey No.499/3 admeasuring 1 Acre

and 14 Gunthas and therefore, by order dated

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

undefined

11.12.2014 directed the Mamlatdar to enter the

name of Lakhiben with respect to land

admeasuring 1 Acre and 14 Gunthas in resurvey

No.320 and further stated that since T.P.

Scheme is applicable to this land, OP number

and FP number will be decided by the Urban

Development Officers.

3.16. In the meanwhile, Dinbandhu Dinanath

filed Regular Civil Suit No.210 of 2012

against Dimpleben Dinanath with respect to

Survey No.320 before the 14th Additional Civil

Judge, Surat. Valiben Dahiyabhai and Laxmiben

@ Lakhiben Kantibhai filed application Exh.29

for joining as party defendant which was

rejected by order dated 4th March, 2014 on the

ground that they have no right or interest

with respect to Survey No.320. The said order

was challenged by preferring Special Civil

Application No.7871 of 2014 before this Court

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

which was withdrawn on 22.08.2014 with a

liberty to file substantive Suit. However, no

such Suit has been filed till date.

3.17. In view of the order dated 11th February,

2014 passed by the Deputy Collector, Revenue

Entry No.7640 was mutated on 19.12.2014

showing the name of Lakhiben-widow of

Gandabhai Devabhai with respect to the land

admeasuring 1 Acre and 14 Gunthas out of

Survey No.320. The said entry was certified on

31.01.2015. Being aggrieved and dis-satisfied

by order dated 11.12.2014 passed by the Deputy

Collector, City Prant, Surat, Valiben

Dahiyabhai-daughter of Samubhai Kanjibhai and

others preferred Revision Application No.70 of

2015 before the Collector along with an

application for stay. By order dated

13.10.2017, the Collector rejected the

application No.70 of 2015 confirming the order

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

dated 11.12.2014 passed by the Deputy

Collector. Revenue Entry No.8604 dated

02.11.2017 was entered into the revenue record

giving effect to the order dated 13.10.2017

passed by the Collector. It appears that in

the meanwhile, registered sale-deed was

executed on 08.05.2017 by Shantiben Babubhai,

Naginbhai Gandabhai Patel, Sumenben,

Champaben, Bhanuben, Sonalben and Dinesh

Thakorbhai Patel in favour of Devenbhai

Mafatlal Patel.

3.18. Valiben Dahiyabhai-daughter of Samubhai

Kanjibhai and others filed Revision

Application No.124 of 2017 before SSRD

challenging the order dated 13.10.2017 passed

by the Collector. Dinbandhu Dinanath also

preferred Revision Application No.130 of 2017

before the SSRD challenging the same order.

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

3.19. The SSRD by common order dated

18.02.2019 quashed and set aside the order

passed by the respondent No.2-Collector and

directed him to make an inquiry afresh and

till then, directed the parties to maintain

status-quo. Being aggrieved by order dated

18.02.2019, Special Civil Application Nos.7947

of 2019, 2454 of 2022 and 26539 of 2022 are

filed.

3.20. It appears that before implementation of

the order dated 18.02.2019, Revenue Entry

No.9898 was mutated in revenue record upon

death of Naginbhai Gandabhai, one of the legal

heirs of Lakhiben and names of his survivors

Babliben Naginbhai and others was mutated.

3.21. Thereafter, an application was made to

implement the order dated 18.02.2019 by

Devenbhai Mafatlal Patel who purchased the

land admeasuring 5,463.25 Sq.Mtrs vide

registered sale-deed No.141 of 2015 of Survey

No.320 as stated above. The Collector passed

an order dated 11.03.2022 cancelling the

Mutation Entry No.9898 in view of the order of

status-quo passed by the Revenue Secretary

till the inquiry was conducted and further

directed to give effect to the order dated

18.02.2019 in the revenue record.

3.22. Therefore, the Mamlatdar passed an order

dated 25.03.2022 by mutating Revenue Entry

No.10074 deleting the name of Devenbhai

Mafatlal Patel as registered owner and only

names of Dipikaben and Dinbandhu Dinanath

continued in the revenue record without

issuing any notice to the Devenbhai Mafatlal

Patel. The petitioner therefore filed a review

application before the Collector to clarify

that name of petitioner be restored to record.

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

The Collector by order dated 17.06.2022

allowed the application. Dinbandhu Dinanath

challenged the said order by preferring an

application before the Collector being

Application No.25/2022. The Collector by

impugned order dated 02.11.2022 cancelled the

order dated 17.06.2022 by allowing the

application with further direction to

Mamlatdar, Surat City, Majura not to pass any

entry till the final disposal of the remand

case. It was also observed that the outcome of

Special Civil Application No.7947 of 2019 and

Special Civil Application No.2454 of 2022

pending before this Court shall be binding to

all the parties.

3.23. Devenbhai Mafatlal Patel has preferred

Special Civil Application No.24341 of 2022

challenging the order dated 02.11.2022 passed

by the Collector. Civil Application No.1 of

NEUTRAL CITATION

5. The facts of the case are in very narrow

compass. The SSRD after considering the facts

and submissions of the respective parties has

remanded the matter back to the Collector vide

order dated 18.02.2019 on the ground that

proper inquiry was required to be made with

regard to the measurement of Old Survey

Nos.497, 499 and 499/3. The SSRD has also

considered that bogus Hissa Form was made and

thereafter, registered sale-deed is executed

and ownership cannot be obtained on the basis

of the possession. It has also observed that

on perusal of the map, the land was without

any survey number belonging to the Government

without there being any order by mutating the

ademesurement as 6 Acres and 37 Gunthas of

Suvey No.497 which was actually 4 Acres and 24

Gunthas. The SSRD has therefore rightly come

to the conclusion that proper inquiry is

required to be made with regard to the land in

NEUTRAL CITATION

C/SCA/7947/2019 CAV JUDGMENT DATED: 07/10/2023

question and the Deputy Collector and

Collector could not have ordered to mutate the

name of Lakhiben and Valiben in respect of the

land admeasuring 1 Acre and 14 Gunthas in

absence of the inquiry. The SSRD has therefore

rightly remanded the matter back to the

Collector by quashing and setting aside the

order dated 13.10.2017 passed by the Collector

and directed to reconsider the entire matter

while adjudicating the appeals arising out of

the order dated 11.12.2014 passed by the

Deputy Collector and ordered to maintain the

status-quo qua the land in question till such
