Having gone through the impugned judgment, we are of the view that though the learned Sub Judge has not relied on any of the documents produced by the claimant in full and has refixed the market value of the acquired property based on guess work, it is more or less a good guess which has been made by the learned Sub Judge. According to us, it is more or less the correct market value of the acquired property at the relevant time which has been arrived at by the learned Sub Judge. We notice that total stakes involved in this appeal is also not much. For all these reasons, this appeal will stand dismissed. PIUS C.KURIAKOSE,JUDGE K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JUDGE dpk
