Kuriakose, J.\n<\/p>\n<p>     All these appeals are preferred by claimants who are<\/p>\n<p>dissatisfied by the re-determination of compensation for<\/p>\n<p>their lands under acquisition by the Subordinate Judge&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>Court,     Pathanamthitta.      The     properties     were      in<\/p>\n<p>Enadimangalam Village of Adoor Taluk. The purpose of the<\/p>\n<p>acquisition was establishment of a Food Processing Park for<\/p>\n<p>KINFRA, the 2nd respondent.          The relevant Section 4(1)<\/p>\n<p>notification was published on 19-12-2003.              The Land<\/p>\n<p>Acquisition Officer categorized the lands under acquisition<\/p>\n<p>into four. Included in category No.1 where important lands<\/p>\n<p>having direct frontage of Panchayat Road,               for these<\/p>\n<p>properties the L.A.Officer awarded land value at the rate of<\/p>\n<p>Rs.4600\/- per Are. Included in category 2 where properties<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                               -2-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>enjoying direct frontage of estate road, for these properties<\/p>\n<p>the L.A. Officer awarded land value at the rate of Rs.4,400\/-<\/p>\n<p>per Are.        Included in category No. 3 where properties<\/p>\n<p>having access through G-plots only, for these properties the<\/p>\n<p>L.A. Officer awarded land value at the rate of Rs.4200\/- per<\/p>\n<p>Are.   Included in the 4th category where lands without any<\/p>\n<p>road frontage and for these properties the L.A. Officer<\/p>\n<p>awarded land value at the rate of Rs.4000\/- per Are. The<\/p>\n<p>learned Subordinate Judge under the various judgments<\/p>\n<p>which are impugned in these appeals re-fixed the value of<\/p>\n<p>lands included in category- 1 at Rs.10,000\/- per Are<\/p>\n<p>evaluating the evidence which was adduced by the parties.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly the value of lands included in category Nos. 2,3<\/p>\n<p>and 4 were respectively re-fixed at Rs.8000\/- per Are,<\/p>\n<p>Rs.7000\/- per Are and Rs.6000\/- per Are. According to the<\/p>\n<p>appellants the enhancement granted is grossly inadequate.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the appellants have raised a grievance that the<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                -3-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>courts below did not award any enhancement towards the<\/p>\n<p>value of the improvements which existed           upon the<\/p>\n<p>properties under acquisition.       The improvements were<\/p>\n<p>mostly rubber trees. The appellants point out that in LAA.<\/p>\n<p>Nos. 1073\/07, 644\/09 and 620\/09 corresponding to LAR.<\/p>\n<p>Nos. 13\/04, 64\/05 &amp; 66\/05, considerable enhancement was<\/p>\n<p>granted      by     the reference  court towards  value  of<\/p>\n<p>improvements. According to the appellants, the court below<\/p>\n<p>having granted enhancement in those cases towards value<\/p>\n<p>of improvements was not at all justified in disallowing any<\/p>\n<p>enhancement towards value of improvements in the other<\/p>\n<p>cases.\n<\/p>\n<p>     2. We have heard the submissions of Mr.T.K.Koshy,<\/p>\n<p>learned counsel for the appellants, Mr.G.S.Reghunath,<\/p>\n<p>learned counsel for the requisitioning authority and the<\/p>\n<p>learned senior Govt. Pleader Mr. P.K.Babu.<\/p>\n<p>     3. Mr.Koshy would argue that the court below has<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                -4-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>excluded relevant evidence adduced by the claimants from<\/p>\n<p>consideration while fixing market value of the lands under<\/p>\n<p>acquisition.        According to him, under Ext.A6 common<\/p>\n<p>judgment the very same court had re-fixed land value at<\/p>\n<p>Rs.16,426\/- per Are. According to him, the lands involved in<\/p>\n<p>Ext.A6 and the lands under acquisition in these cases were<\/p>\n<p>similarly situated and had several potentialities and<\/p>\n<p>improvements. He would further argue that grave injustice<\/p>\n<p>has been caused to the appellants in that they were not<\/p>\n<p>awarded any enhancement towards value of improvements.<\/p>\n<p>Attention was drawn by him to those judgments where the<\/p>\n<p>court below had awarded considerable increase towards<\/p>\n<p>value of improvements.          Sri.G.S.Reghunath per contra<\/p>\n<p>would oppose all the submissions of Mr.Koshy. According to<\/p>\n<p>him Ext.A6 judgment could not have been a basis since that<\/p>\n<p>was in respect of acquisition pursuant to a different<\/p>\n<p>notification.       He would also submit that the properties<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                            -5-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>covered by Ext.A6 were superior in the sense that even in<\/p>\n<p>1996 a much higher value than what is awarded by the L.A.<\/p>\n<p>Officer in 2003 to the properties under acquisition in these<\/p>\n<p>cases had been awarded. According to Mr.Reghunath, there<\/p>\n<p>is no warrant for granting any further enhancement to the<\/p>\n<p>claimants. Meeting the argument that the court below had<\/p>\n<p>adopted different standards in the matter of awarding<\/p>\n<p>enhancement towards value of improvements Mr.Reghunath<\/p>\n<p>submitted that the additional value of improvements has<\/p>\n<p>been awarded only in cases where there was evidence in the<\/p>\n<p>form of acceptable commission reports. The claimants in<\/p>\n<p>those cases where there is no acceptable commission report<\/p>\n<p>cannot aspire for award of more value towards value of<\/p>\n<p>improvements.\n<\/p>\n<p>     4. Mr.Reghunath also referred to LAA. Nos. 510\/07,<\/p>\n<p>1073\/07, 1742\/08 and 1341\/07. He pointed out that those<\/p>\n<p>were all cases involving more than 1 hectare of land. Citing<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                             -6-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the judgments of the Supreme Court in Haryana State<\/p>\n<p>Electricity Board and another v. Maha Singh and another<\/p>\n<p>(AIR 1997 SC 2553), <a href=\"\/doc\/870840\/\">Niranjan Umesh Chandra Joshi v.<\/p>\n<p>Mrudula Jyothi Rao and others (AIR<\/a> 2007 SC 614) and<\/p>\n<p>Gajjan Singh and another v. State of Punjab (AIR 1998 SC<\/p>\n<p>2417) Mr. Reghunath submitted that the acquisition in the<\/p>\n<p>above appeals will have to be treated as whole sale<\/p>\n<p>acquisition and therefore the market value which is being<\/p>\n<p>awarded in other case involving small extent &#8211; retail<\/p>\n<p>acquisition cannot be awarded. According to him in whole<\/p>\n<p>sale acquisition at least 20% of the total price determined<\/p>\n<p>by this court towards market value of land should be<\/p>\n<p>deducted. The learned senior Govt. Pleader would support<\/p>\n<p>all the submissions of Mr.Reghunath. According to him,<\/p>\n<p>there is no warrant at all for interference in the impugned<\/p>\n<p>judgment.\n<\/p>\n<p>     5.      We have very anxiously considered the rival<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                -7-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>submissions addressed at the Bar. We are unable to accept<\/p>\n<p>the argument of Mr.Koshy that Ext.A6 judgment ought to<\/p>\n<p>have been followed and the enhancement of the market<\/p>\n<p>value granted under Ext.A6 should have been fixed for the<\/p>\n<p>properties under acquisition included in category- 1. A6 was<\/p>\n<p>not an acquisition pursuant to the very same notification or<\/p>\n<p>for the same purposes. It has come out in evidence that A6<\/p>\n<p>property unlike the properties under acquisition were<\/p>\n<p>situated within Adoor Municipality and that A6 properties<\/p>\n<p>were enjoying the direct frontage of Kodumon &#8211; Parakode<\/p>\n<p>PWD Road.          It is apparent that A6 properties were far<\/p>\n<p>superior to the properties under acquisition since even in<\/p>\n<p>1988 when A6 properties were acquired for the purpose of<\/p>\n<p>Water Authority the acquisition officer had awarded much<\/p>\n<p>higher value to those properties than the value awarded to<\/p>\n<p>properties in category-1 in these cases. According to us, the<\/p>\n<p>learned Subordinate Judge was perfectly justified in not<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                 -8-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>placing reliance on Ext.A1.\n<\/p>\n<p>     6. If Ext.A6 is eschewed, then the tangible evidence<\/p>\n<p>available before the learned Subordinate Judge for fixing<\/p>\n<p>market value of the properties under acquisition was the<\/p>\n<p>basis document, oral evidence of the claimants and the<\/p>\n<p>reports of the Commissioner available in some of the cases<\/p>\n<p>which were to the effect that the properties were situated in<\/p>\n<p>a relatively important locality. To the oral evidence adduced<\/p>\n<p>by the claimants, counter evidence was not adduced in most<\/p>\n<p>of the cases.       It is evaluating the oral evidence and the<\/p>\n<p>evidence other than Ext.A6 that the learned Subordinate<\/p>\n<p>Judge fixed the market value of the lands in all these cases.<\/p>\n<p>     7. We have made a reappraisal of the evidence and we<\/p>\n<p>feel that on a better assessment based on the evidence<\/p>\n<p>available in these cases other than Ext.A6 the market value<\/p>\n<p>of the lands under acquisition can be re-fixed in the<\/p>\n<p>following manner:<\/p>\n<pre>\n\nLAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                              -9-<\/span>\n\n\n     Category - 1     : Rs.11,000\/- per Are\n\n     Category - 2     : Rs.8,800\/- per Are\n\n     Category - 3     : Rs.7,500\/- per Are\n\n     Category - 4 : Rs.6,400\/- per Are\n\n<\/pre>\n<p>Accordingly, in modification of the awards passed by the<\/p>\n<p>reference court we re-fix the market value of the lands<\/p>\n<p>which were included in category No. 1 by the L.A. Officer<\/p>\n<p>(lands for which the L.A. Officer awarded Rs.10,000\/- per<\/p>\n<p>Are) at Rs.11,000\/- per Are.     Similarly, for properties of<\/p>\n<p>category No.2 (for which L.A. Officer awarded Rs.8000\/-<\/p>\n<p>per Are) we award Rs.8,800\/- per Are. For category Nos.3<\/p>\n<p>and 4 (for which L.A. Officer awarded land value at the rates<\/p>\n<p>Rs.7000\/- and Rs.6000\/- respectively per Are) we re-fix at<\/p>\n<p>the rate of Rs.7,500\/- per Are and Rs.6,400\/- per Are.<\/p>\n<p>     8. We notice elements of genuineness in the grievance<\/p>\n<p>voiced by those claimants who were not awarded any<\/p>\n<p>enhancement by the reference court towards value of<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                           -10-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>improvements. May be, it is true that in cases other than<\/p>\n<p>the cases covered by LAA. Nos. 1073\/07, 644\/09 and<\/p>\n<p>620\/09 (LAR numbers respectively 13\/04, 64\/05 and 66\/05)<\/p>\n<p>there was no good evidence to grant enhancement towards<\/p>\n<p>value of improvements. At the same time, it is not seriously<\/p>\n<p>in dispute that the nature of improvements in these<\/p>\n<p>properties were somewhat similar to the nature of<\/p>\n<p>improvements in the other cases. Rubber trees standing in<\/p>\n<p>these properties were somewhat similar and we feel that<\/p>\n<p>based on the evidence adduced by the claimants uniform<\/p>\n<p>enhancement by 30% over what was awarded by the L.A.<\/p>\n<p>Officer towards value of improvements in his award can be<\/p>\n<p>awarded in all the appeals except LAA. Nos. 1073\/07,<\/p>\n<p>644\/09 and 620\/09. Accordingly, all the appellants other<\/p>\n<p>than appellants in LAA. Nos. 1073\/07 644\/09 and 620\/09,<\/p>\n<p>we award 30% of the amount awarded to those appellants<\/p>\n<p>by the L.A. Officer towards value of improvements as<\/p>\n<p>LAA. N0. 107\/07 etc.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                              -11-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>additional compensation towards value of improvements.<\/p>\n<p>     9. As noticed already, the cases relating to LAA. Nos.<\/p>\n<p>510\/07, 1073\/07, 1341\/07 and 1742\/08 involve acquisition<\/p>\n<p>of more than 1 hectare of land. Following the principles laid<\/p>\n<p>down by the Supreme Court in AIR 1997 SC 2553, AIR 2007<\/p>\n<p>SC 614 and AIR 1998 SC 2417 the acquisitions in these<\/p>\n<p>cases have to be treated as whole sale acquisition. It is trite<\/p>\n<p>that the whole sale price will be lesser than retail price.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore even as market value of the lands under<\/p>\n<p>acquisition in these appeals are re-determined on the basis<\/p>\n<p>of the rates re-fixed in this judgment, a uniform deduction<\/p>\n<p>of 10% on the total market value of land will be made in<\/p>\n<p>these appeals. But no such deduction need be made from<\/p>\n<p>the compensation awarded towards value of improvements.<\/p>\n<p>      All the appeals are allowed as above. It is made clear<\/p>\n<p>that all the appellants will be entitled for statutory benefits<\/p>\n<p>admissible under Sections 23(2), 23(1A) and 28 of the Land<\/p>\n<p>LAA.
