RFCTLARR Act, Section 30 | Market Value at Preliminary Notification Date Mandatory for Compensation; Fraudulent Consent Voids Acquisition : Andhra Pradesh HC
Andhra Pradesh HC rules that compensation under the RFCTLARR Act must be calculated based on market value as of the preliminary notification date, not suppressed rates. The court also invalidated consent obtained through misrepresentation of compensation structure, holding it void due to fraud. Landowners facing acquisition disputes can now challenge compensation awards based on post-notification market fluctuations or fraudulent consent.
