KURIAKOSE & K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JJ. ------------------------------------------------------------ LAA. No. 175 of 2005 ----------------------------------------------- Dated this the 17th day of September, 2009 J U D G M E N T Pius C. Kuriakose, J. On going through the impugned judgment, it is seen that the rate of enhancement granted by the reference court is only 18% over what was granted by the L.A. Officer. According to us, there is no legitimate reason for the requisitioning authority to be aggrieved. At any rate, market value of the property at the relevant time is at least the amount now fixed under the impugned judgment. This appeal will stand dismissed. No costs.
