Delay is condoned and the appeal is considered for admission. This appeal is directed against the judgment of the reference court enhancing compensation from Rs. 7876/- per Are to Rs.17,297/- in an acquisition for the purpose of the appellant KSIDC. It is stated by the learned counsel for the appellant that enhancement at the rates granted by the reference court has been approved by this court and by the Supreme Court in identical cases. Under the above circumstances, this appeal will stand dismissed in limine. (PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE,JUDGE) dpk
