Rental Compensation Mandatory Under State GRs for Pre-Acquisition Possession | Bombay HC Upholds Landowner Entitlement Regardless of Public Purpose
Bombay High Court rules that landowners are entitled to rental compensation under State Government Resolutions when possession is taken before formal acquisition, even without statutory backing. The court mandates 6% interest on delayed payments and clarifies that entitlement applies irrespective of the public purpose, reinforcing promissory estoppel principles.
