Mr. Ashish Kapoor, addl.A.G.Haryana for the State. Ms. Vandana Malhotra, Advocate for HUDA. ----- Adarsh Kumar Goel,J.: 1. This petition seeks quashing of demand notices for additional amount of compensation. 2. Case of the petitioners is that they were allotted industrial plots in the year 1989 by the Haryana Urban development Authority. One of the allotment letters is Annexure P.2 dated 9.8.1989. Compensation for the land from which the plots were allotted was enhanced by the Court vide judgment dated 3.1.1997, Annexure P.3 on account of which demand for additional price has been raised. One of the notices is Annexure CWP No.7498 of 2002 P.4 dated 11.4.2001 which was followed by Show Cause Notice dated 27.7.2001, Annexure P.5. The petitioners opposed the demand by making representation Annexure P.8 but no response was received to the representation. 3. Notice was issued and this petition was ordered to be heard alongwith CWP No.20016 of 2001. 4. In the reply filed, the stand taken is that in terms of letters of allotment, as per condition No.9, the petitioners were liable to pay the enhanced price. Development works had been duly completed. Demand of additional price was also justified under Regulations 2(b) and 10 of the Haryana Urban development (Disposal of Land and Building) Regulations, 1978. 4. We have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record. 5. It is not disputed that the matter is covered by order of this Court dated 6.1.2004 in CWP No.20017 of 2001 wherein it was noticed that substantial development works had been done and the steps will be taken to remove the grievances of the petitioners. As regards liability to pay enhanced compensation, it was observed that no interest was payable prior to notice issued to the petitioners as held in CWP No.1270 of 1985 (Charanjit Bajaj v. State of Haryana). The respondents were to provide a statement of account 2 CWP No.7498 of 2002 to the petitioners showing the calculation under which enhanced compensation was payable within two months, by associating the petitioners with the calculation, on which the petitioners were to deposit the amount within two months. 6. In view of above, this petition is disposed of in terms of order dated 6.1.2004 in CWP No.20017 of 2001 (Krishan Lal and Others v. Haryana Urban Development Authority and another).
