R-2 and R-3 produced by the appellant-State.<\/p>\n<p>According to the learned counsel       for the appellant-State that the land<\/p>\n<p>measuring 24 kanals 13 marlas was sold vide sale deed dated 01.9.1982<\/p>\n<p>(Ex.R-2) for a consideration of Rs.9500\/- which comes to Rs. 3084\/- per<\/p>\n<p>acre and land measuring 33 kanals 4 marlas was sold vide sale deed dated<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> RFA No.758 of 1991 (O&amp;M)               3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>21.7.1982 (Ex.R-3) for Rs. 16,000\/- which comes to Rs. 4000\/- per acre.<\/p>\n<p>Learned counsel for the appellant\/State contended that value of Gair-<\/p>\n<p>Mumkin land arising out of the sale deeds Exs. R-2 and R-3, is more than<\/p>\n<p>the award of the Collector, as such there is no justification for the learned<\/p>\n<p>Reference Court       to   award compensation @ Rs. 14,000\/- per acre for<\/p>\n<p>Bhood land. It is also submitted by the learned counsel for the State that<\/p>\n<p>while    relying upon a post notification sale deed Ex. P-2, the learned<\/p>\n<p>Reference Court has erred in applying only a cut of 50%, although cut to<\/p>\n<p>the extent of 86% deserves to be applied. In this regard, reliance has been<\/p>\n<p>placed   upon     a   decision   of   the   Apex   Court   in   the   case   of<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/doc\/1394810\/\">K.S.Shivadevamma and others           v. Assistant Commissioner and Land<\/p>\n<p>Acquisition Officer and<\/a> another, (1996) 2 Supreme Court Cases 62<\/p>\n<p>             While arguing for the cross objections filed by the<\/p>\n<p>landowners\/claimants and countering the appeals filed by the State of<\/p>\n<p>Haryana, Mr. Parbodh Mittal, learned         counsel   for the objectors has<\/p>\n<p>vehemently contended that the learned Reference Court has committed<\/p>\n<p>an error on two counts, firstly the cut of 50% has been illegally applied to<\/p>\n<p>the sale deed Ex.P-2 and secondly, only 5% damages have been awarded<\/p>\n<p>on account of severance. He also relied upon a decision          of Supreme<\/p>\n<p>Court in the case of Atma Singh (died) through LRs &amp; Ors. v. State of<\/p>\n<p>Haryana &amp; Anr. AIR 2008 Supreme Court 709 requesting this Court to<\/p>\n<p>reduce the cut of 50% to 10%.\n<\/p>\n<p>             I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have perused<\/p>\n<p>the record with their assistance.\n<\/p>\n<p>                Insofar as the sale transactions Exs. R-2 and R-3            are<\/p>\n<p>concerned, both are post notification sale deeds as the notification under<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> RFA No.758 of 1991 (O&amp;M)             4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Section 4 of the Act was issued on 14.12.1981 and the sale deed Ex.R-2<\/p>\n<p>is dated 1.9.1982 and sale deed Ex.R-3 is dated 21.7.1982. Secondly,<\/p>\n<p>learned State counsel has contended that the value arising out of two sale<\/p>\n<p>deeds is Rs.3000\/- or Rs. 4000\/- which is more than the award of the<\/p>\n<p>Collector, awarded @ Rs.3000\/- for gair-Mumkin land,this should have<\/p>\n<p>been considered.\n<\/p>\n<p>              I have perused the sale deeds Exs. R-2 and R-3 but I could<\/p>\n<p>not find the nature of the land mentioned in the sale deeds, therefore, it<\/p>\n<p>cannot be equated with Gair-Mumkin land. No compensation has been<\/p>\n<p>awarded by the learned Reference Court in respect of gair-mumkin land.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the price of lands involved in sale deeds Exs. R-2 and R-3 is less than<\/p>\n<p>the compensation awarded by the Land Acquisition Collector, as such, the<\/p>\n<p>same cannot be taken into consideration in view of Section 25 of the Act<\/p>\n<p>and have to be ignored.\n<\/p>\n<p>            The second argument of the learned counsel for the State is in<\/p>\n<p>respect of the application of cut of 50%. The judgment of the Apex Court<\/p>\n<p>in K.S.Shivadevamma&#8217;s Case (Supra) is not applicable on the facts of<\/p>\n<p>these cases because in the cited case, it was observed that under the<\/p>\n<p>Building Rules 53% of land     is required to be   left out and another 33-<\/p>\n<p>1\/3% is required to be deducted for the purpose of providing amenities. In<\/p>\n<p>the present case, however,     neither the land    has been   acquired    for<\/p>\n<p>commercial or residential purposes nor any building rule applies, therefore,<\/p>\n<p>in my view, the ratio of law laid down in the case of K.S.Shivadevamma<\/p>\n<p>(Supra) does not apply.\n<\/p>\n<p>             Now coming to the contention raised by learned counsel for<\/p>\n<p>the respondents\/objectors who has submitted that 50% cut is on the higher<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> RFA No.758 of 1991 (O&amp;M)              5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>side and has relied upon a decision of the Supreme Court in Atma Singh&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>Case (Supra) and submitted that 10% cut should have been applied. Even<\/p>\n<p>this judgment is not applicable because in that case the land was acquired<\/p>\n<p>for construction of a co-operative sugar mill.      It was observed by the<\/p>\n<p>Supreme Court that if an industry is established on the acquired land, if runs<\/p>\n<p>efficiently, earns money, or makes profit every year. The return from the<\/p>\n<p>lands acquired for the purpose of Housing Colony, or Offices, or Institution<\/p>\n<p>cannot even remotely be compared with the land which has been acquired<\/p>\n<p>for the purpose of setting up of a factory or industry. After all the factory<\/p>\n<p>cannot be set up without land and if such land is giving substantial return,<\/p>\n<p>there is no justification for making any deduction from the prices exhibited<\/p>\n<p>by the exemplars even if they are of small plots. It is possible that a part<\/p>\n<p>of the acquired land might be used for construction of residential colony<\/p>\n<p>for the staff working in the factory. Nevertheless where the remaining part<\/p>\n<p>of the acquired land is contributing to production of goods yielding good<\/p>\n<p>profit it would not be proper to make a deduction in the price of the land<\/p>\n<p>shown by the exemplars of small plots as the reasons for doing so assigned<\/p>\n<p>in various decisions of this Court are not applicable in the case under<\/p>\n<p>consideration.   Under these circumstances,     a cut of 10% was applied.<\/p>\n<p>Learned counsel for the appellant was at pains to submits that even colony<\/p>\n<p>is also an industry. I afraid that this argument cannot be accepted. So far<\/p>\n<p>as the second argument is concerned that the learned Court below has<\/p>\n<p>committed an error in awarding 5% of compensation on the market value<\/p>\n<p>on account of severance of the land, I rely upon the decision of this case<\/p>\n<p>passed in RFA No. 1337 of 1991 (Surjit Singh etc. LRs of deceased Nasib<\/p>\n<p>Singh and others v. The State of Punjab through Land Acquisition<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> RFA No.758 of 1991 (O&amp;M)             6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Collector) decided on April 09,2008 and I hold that the cross-objectors<\/p>\n<p>are entitled to 50% compensation\/damages on account of severance on the<\/p>\n<p>market value of the acquired land.\n<\/p>\n<p>            In view of my above discussion, the appeals filed by the State<\/p>\n<p>of Haryana are dismissed whereas the Cross Objections filed by the<\/p>\n<p>landowners\/claimants are partly allowed to the extent that they shall be<\/p>\n<p>entitled to 50% of severance charges on the market value of the acquired<\/p>\n<p>land with all statutory benefits in terms of the provisions of the amended<\/p>\n<p>Act.
