By way of present application, delay of 257 days in filing the present appeal is being sought to be condoned. Admittedly, in the case at hand, appeal against the impugned award dated 21.02.2024 is to be filed under Section 74 of the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 (hereinafter for the purpose of brevity referred to "the Act). Section 74 of the Act reads as under:-

Explanation. - For the purposes of this section, "High Court"

In terms of the provisions of Section 74 of the Act, appeal has to be preferred within 60 days from the date of award.

However, in terms of proviso to Section 74(1) of the Act, on showing sufficient cause, appeal can be filed within further period not exceeding 60 days. Since, in the case at hand, delay beyond the prescribed period of 120 days in terms of Section 74 of the Act is being sought to be condoned, therefore, sustenance is being sought of Section 29(2) of the Limitation Act. The same is being reproduced herein below:-

The 2013 Act came into force w.e.f 14.09.2015 and the award passed in the present case on 8.10.2014. Thus, the award came to be passed subsequent to the 2013 Act came into force, thereby automatically the provisions of Section 24 (1)(a)of the 2013 Act are applicable. Once the SLAO determines the compensation under the 2013 Act, the aggrieved party may request the authority to make reference to the authority as contemplated under Section under Section 64.of the 2013 Act for determination of market value for the acquired land. Once the reference authority determines the compensation under section 69, then the aggrieved party has to file an appeal under section 74 of the 2013 Act within the time stipulated.

On an analysis of the section, it is clear that the provisions of Sections 4 to 24 will apply when:

There is no dispute that the Act is a "special law" and that Section 74 provides for a period of limitation different from that prescribed under the Limitation Act . The question then is - is such exclusion expressed in Section 34 of the Act?

It is not essential for the special or local law to, in terms, exclude the provisions of the Limitation Act . It is sufficient if on a consideration of the language of its provisions relating to limitation, the intention to exclude can be necessarily implied.

Another very important aspect of the case is that 60 days is the period of limitation, and a further period not exceeding 60 days is provided only if sufficient cause is made out for filing the appeal within the extended period. Applicability of Section 5 of the Limitation Act would render otiose the second time-limit of 60 days, which, in my considered view is peremptory in nature.

Reference can be made to the decision of the Hon'ble High Court of Bombay, passed in Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai Vs. Anusaya Sitaram Devrukhkar and Ors., on 07.01.2025, in Interim Application No.13254 of 2024 in First Appeal(St.) No.24058 of 2024 and decision dated 21.10.2022, passed by the Hon'ble High Court of Karnataka in Review Petititon No.328 of 2021, title Deputy Commissioner and Special Land.....Vs. M/s S V Global Mill Limited.

In view of the foregoing discussion, I have no hesitation in holding that beyond the total period of 120 days as stipulated in .

Section 74(1) [read with its proviso] of the 2013 Act, this Court has no power to condone the delay. Since, admittedly in the facts of the present case, the application [seeking condonation of delay] filed by the Appellant is beyond the total period of 120 days, the application seeking a condonation of delay is hereby dismissed.

Advocate, for the appellants.

Mr. Y.P. Sood, Advocate, for the respondents.

The present application has been filed seeking recalling of order dated 18.12.2022, whereby an application bearing CMP No.11900 of 2022 filed for seeking interim order in the present appeal, has been dismissed, as not pressed.

Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the pleadings.

The sole contention urged on behalf of the non-

applicants/respondents is that the application is not duly supported by an affidavit of the appellant, in the case at hand.

The applicants, in the case at hand were the defendants before the trial Court. The non-applicants have filed a suit seeking a decree of permanent prohibitory injunction and a decree of mandatory injunction. The suit so filed by the non-applicants had been decreed, whereas the appeal preferred thereof had been dismissed.

Being aggrieved of the same, present appeal has been filed. On filing the present appeal, an application being CMP No.11900 of 2022 had been filed under Order 41 Rule 5 of the Civil Procedure Code seeking grant of stay of operation and execution of the judgment passed by the Courts below. An appropriate order staying the operation and execution of the judgments and decree passed by the Courts below had been passed, on 30.08.2022. The pleadings in the same were ::: Downloaded on - 23/07/2025 21:27:31 :::CIS completed and the matter, vide order dated 13.12.2024, insofar .

as an interim application being CMP No.11900 of 2022 was concerned, was ordered to be listed for consideration on 18.12.2024.

Perusal of the record shows that on 18.12.2024, the application for interim order filed under Order 41 Rule 5 of the Civil Procedure Code was dismissed as not pressed by the applicants/appellants/defendants, in the case at hand.

r The present application, duly supported by an affidavit of a counsel, has been filed seeking restoration of order dated 18.12.2024.

In the facts and attending circumstances of the case at hand, it is evident that withdrawal of application filed under Order 41 Rule 5 of the Civil Procedure Code seems highly improbable and contrary to the interests of the applicants/appellants. In the present application, it has categorically been averred that no instructions to the extent of withdrawal of the Order 41 Rule 5 application, i.e. CMP No.11900 of 2022 had been imparted to the counsel by the appellants, in the case at hand. Besides the aforesaid, it cannot be expected that a counsel would act contrary to the interests of the party who has engaged him. Non filing of an affidavit by the appellants along with the present application is of no consequence as the present application is duly supported by an affidavit of the counsel and for the aforesaid reasons.

Keeping in view the aforesaid, present application seeking recalling of order dated 18.12.2024 is allowed. The application being CMP No.11900 of 2022 is restored to its original number ::: Downloaded on - 23/07/2025 21:27:31 :::CIS and position. List the application (CMP No.11900 of 2022) for .

For the reasons stated in the application, the same is allowed. The delay in re-filing the appeal, is condoned. The application stands disposed of.

In filing of the present appeal, there is a delay of 132 days.

The same has been duly explained in the application filed for condonation of delay. Even otherwise, while dealing with an application for condonation of delay filed by the State, one has to be conscious of the bureaucratic delays, impersonal nature of the governmental functioning, institutional interest and hence a justice oriented liberal approach has to be taken while dealing with such applications.

In this respect, it would be appropriate to refer to decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court passed in State of Manipur and others vs. Koting Lamkang , 2019 (10) SCC 408. The relevant extract of the same is being reproduced herein below:-

19.06.2025 Present: Mr. K.D. Sood, Senior Advocate with Mr. Vivek Singh Thakur, Advocate, for the applicant.

Mr. Bimal Gupta, Senior Advocate with Mr. Trigun Singh Negi, Advocate, for the respondent.

Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the pleadings.

The applicant, in the case at hand, was the appellant before this Court in the Regular Second Appeal. On account of having suffered a judgment and decree by both the Courts below, during the pendency of the appeal before this Court, a sum of Rs.90,392/-

being decretal amount along-with interest has been deposited by the present applicant/appellant on 07.01.2009 in the Registry of this Court.

The non-applicant/respondent in the Regular Second Appeal had moved an application for release of the amount so deposited.

Vide order dated 27.08.2010, the amount deposited by the present applicant was ordered to be released in favour of the non-applicant/ respondent. However, the release was subject to the non-applicant furnishing a requisite security. The needful was done and thereafter the money was released.

However, subsequent to the allowing of the Regular Second Appeal in favour of the present applicant/appellant, the non-

applicant had deposited the amount withdrawn along-with interest accrued thereupon, on 27.11.2024.

Since the appeal has now been allowed in favour of the present applicant/appellant, therefore, based on the security so ::: Downloaded on - 23/07/2025 21:27:33 :::CIS furnished in terms of order dated 27.08.2010, the present applicant .

is entitled to release of amount, qua which a security had been furnished by the present non-applicant/respondent.

The claim for any amount over and above the amount secured by way of a security furnished by the non-applicant can only be made by the present applicant by way of an application for restitution.

In terms of law laid down by the Apex Court in State Bank of Saurashtra vs. Chitranjan Rangnath Raja and Anr. , AIR 1980 SC 1528 and on a bare reading of Section 144 of the Civil Procedure Code, it is evident that where a decree or an order of a trial Court has been set aside in an appeal or revision, it is only the Court of first instance, which has been given a power to order restitution.

In view of the aforesaid, it is made clear that the applicant in the present application is only entitled to release of amount secured by the security furnished by the non-applicant in terms of order dated 27.08.2010. For any over and above amount, in view of the settled position of law stated here-in-above, an application for restitution would only be maintainable before the trial Court.

The amount so deposited on 27.11.2024 along-with interest accrued thereupon be released in favour of the applicant. The amount be remitted to the bank account, details whereof have been given in Paragraph-8 of the application, subject to proper verification. The application stands disposed of.

No reply is intended to be filed on behalf of the non-

applicants. The non-applicants have no objection, if in case, the application is allowed and the legal heirs of deceased respondent No.1, are brought on record as is being sought in the application.

23.05.2025 Present: Mr. Parvinder Singh, Mr. Ibadat S. Randhawa and Mr. Ganesh Barowalia, Advocate, for the plaintiff.

Mr. Adarsh K. Vashista and Mr. Shivom Vashista, Advocates, for the defendants.

Heard learned counsel for the parties. Perused the pleadings and the record.

The suit, in the case at hand, has been filed for specific performance by the present applicant. Admittedly, in the case at hand, the sale consideration is Rs.1 Crore 17 lacs, out which Rs.48 lacs stands paid by the applicant to the non-applicants.

The sole contention raised on behalf of the non-applicants for rejection of the present application seeking interim order is that the applicant, in the case at hand, is a non-agriculturist and does not have a specific permission under Section 118 of the Himachal Pradesh Tenancy and Land Reforms Act, 1972 to buy property within the State of Himachal Pradesh.

The contention raised by the present non-applicants is no longer res integra in lieu of the law laid down by this Court in Rahul Bhargava vs. Vinod Kohli and others , (2008) 1 SLC

385. The extract of the same reads as follows:-

Provided that alienation of orchards to the extent of four .

kanals only in favour of one or more persons for residential purposes shall not need any permission.

(b) .... .... .... Considering the aforesaid section, it is apparent that prohibition on transfer of orchards is not absolute and the question of obtaining previous permission as contemplated under Section 3(1)(a) would arise at the time of execution of the sale deed on the basis of decree for specific performance. Section 3 does not bar the maintainability of the suit and permission can be obtained by filing proper application after the decree is passed. Therefore, it cannot be stated that decree for specific performance is not required to be passed.

Further, under Section 3 of the J&K Prohibition on Conservation of Land and Alienation of Orchards Act, 1975, prohibition on transfer is limited. Firstly, the proviso makes it clear that alienation of orchards to the extent of four kanals only in favour of one or more persons for residential purposes will not require any permission. Secondly, for more than four kanals of land, previous permission of the Revenue Minister or such officer as may be authorized by him in this behalf is required to be obtained. Dealing with similar contention, this Court in Bai Dosabai v. Mathurdas Govinddas [1980 (3) SCC 545 ] observed that even if the Act prohibits alienation of land, if the decree is passed in favour of the plaintiff, it is required to be moulded suitably."

15. On the point of alienation/ transfer of land after permission Section 3 of J&K Act noticed above and Section 118 of the Act in substance are similar. There is no absolute prohibition, under Section 118 of the Act on transfer of land to nonagriculturist and transfer can be made in favour of nonagriculturist with permission of Government under Section 118 of the Act. This question at the most will arise at the time of execution of sale deed on the basis of decree for specific performance. Section 118 of the Act does not bar the maintainability of the suit for specific performance and injunction on the basis of agreement. The respondent No.1 had earlier obtained ::: Downloaded on - 23/07/2025 21:27:35 :::CIS permission from the State Government for purchasing the property vide permission Ex. PW 3/A. .

16. It has been submitted that learned District Judge has passed the decree in infinity by ordering that the appellant (defendant No.1) would execute the sale deed in respect of the suit property in favour of respondent No.1 within one month of the renewal of the permission, under Section 118 of the Act. The execution of decree of specific performance is also governed by law of Limitation and, therefore, the plea of learned counsel for the appellant that learned District Judge has passed decree in infinity is not tenable. The learned District Judge has rightly appreciated the material on record. No case for interference has been made out. The substantial questions of law No. 1 to 3 are decided against the appellant and in favour of respondents No.1 and 2. The impugned judgement, decree do not require any interference."

In the suit for specific performance what is sought to be specifically enforced at is the Agreement dated 17.12.2022 entered into by the parties. Clause 11 thereof, which speaks of specific performance, reads as follows:-

In view of above, during the pendency of the suit, the non applicants, their agent, representatives are restrained from encumbering, alienating, transferring, creating third party interest over the suit property.

The application stands disposed of.

List for admission and denial before the Registrar concerned, on 23.06.2025.

M/s Hand Corner Stone LLP vs. Sankalp Gupta and others Civil Suit No.18 of 2025 .

23.05.2025 Present: Mr. Parvinder Singh, Mr. Ibadat S. Randhawa and Mr. Ganesh Barowalia, Advocate, for the plaintiff.

Mr. Adarsh K. Vashista and Mr. Shivom Vashista, Advocates, for the respondents.

Heard learned counsel for the parties. Perused the pleadings and the record.

The suit, in the case at hand, has been filed for specific performance by the present applicant. Admittedly, in the case at hand, 85% of the sale consideration stands paid by the applicant to the non-applicants. The sole contention raised on behalf of the non-applicants for rejection of the present application seeking interim order is that the applicant, in the case at hand, is a non-

agriculturist and does not has a specific permission under Section 118 of the Himachal Pradesh Tenancy and Land Reforms Act, 1972 to buy property within the State of Himachal Pradesh.

r to Relevant portion of the same is being "6.4 An identical question came to be considered by this Court in the case of P. D'souza (supra) and after considering the earlier decision of this Court in the case of M.L. Devender Singh Vs. Syed Khaja (1973) 2 SCC 515, this Court observed and held that where the sum named is an amount the payment of which may be substituted for the performance of the act at the election of the person by whom the money is to be paid or the act done, the Court may refuse to pass the decree for specific performance. In the present case, the condition specifically stipulates that in case of failure on the part of the seller to execute the sale deed within the stipulated time the buyer shall be entitled to double the amount given as an advance. Therefore, the sum is specifically named i.e., double the amount of advance paid. Though, the High Court has relied upon the decision in the case of P. D'souza (supra), the aforesaid aspect has not been considered by the High Court, more particularly, the observations made in paragraph 31 in its true perspective."

In the filing of the present appeal, there is a delay of 515 days. The same has been duly explained in the application filed for condonation of delay.

In this respect, it would be appropriate to refer to decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court passed in State of Manipur and others vs. Koting Lamkang , 2019 (10) SCC 408. The relevant extract of the same is being reproduced herein below:-

Notice in the aforesaid terms.

The applicants, in the case at hand, have filed a claim petition under Section 166 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. The said petition has been filed on account of death of husband of petitioner No.1-Shri Satish Kumar in an accident. One of the facts to be ascertained in the claim petition is the income of the deceased. Despite best efforts on the part of the applicants, the employer of the deceased husband of petitioner No.1, could not be produced and the evidence of the applicants was closed on 26.06.2024.

Prima facie, from the contents of the application filed under Order 7 Rule 14(3) of the Civil Procedure Code, whereupon the impugned order was passed, it is evident that a good cause has been projected to satisfy the Court qua the non production of evidence earlier with respect to the income of the deceased. In support of his contentions, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners has placed reliance upon the decision of the Madras High Court, in S. Rathinaswamy & Others vs. Smt. S. Bhanumathi & others , AIR 2006 Madras 221.

In view thereof, further proceedings pending before learned Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Sundernagar, District Mandi, .

In the filing of the present appeal, there is a delay of 272 days. The same has been duly explained in the application filed for condonation of delay. Even otherwise, while dealing with an application for condonation of delay filed by the State, one has to be conscious of the bureaucratic delays, impersonal nature of the governmental functioning, institutional interest and hence a justice oriented liberal approach has to be taken while dealing with such applications.

In this respect, it would be appropriate to refer to decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court passed in State of Manipur and others vs. Koting Lamkang , 2019 (10) SCC

408. The relevant extract of the same is being reproduced herein below:-

In the case at hand, the matter had been referred to mediation, however, the mediation had failed. Based on the concessions made at the mediation, present application has been filed by the applicant/appellant/plaintiff.

In view thereof, present application stands disposed of.

Appeal No.19- S/10 of 2024, titled as Bhagu Devi vs. Vinod Gazta, decided on 16.05.2024. The judgment of the trial Court and the 1 st Appellate Court was confirmed by this Court on 02.01.2025.

The present application has been filed for compounding of the offence, in the case at hand, as the present applicant has brought a Demand Draft for the balance compensation amount to be paid to the complainant/non-applicant. The Demand Draft so prepared has been handed over to the counsel for the complainant/non-applicant.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the non-applicant does not intend to file reply to the application. He has no objections, if in case, the present application is allowed, subject to litigation costs. As per the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the applicant, out of total compensation amount, Rs.3,00,000- ::: Downloaded on - 23/07/2025 21:27:40 :::CIS (Rupees Three Lacs) stands deposited before the learned trial .

Revision No. 332 of 2021, titled Naresh Kumar vs. Trilok Chand , decided on 01.03.2023, wherein it was held that this Court can proceed to compound offence punishable under Section 138 of N.I.Act even after upholding the judgment of conviction and order of sentence recorded by the learned trial Court.

Consequently in view of aforesaid, this Court finds no impediment in accepting the prayer made on behalf of the applicant-petitioner through instant petition for compounding of the offence and the same is allowed. Order dated 02.01.2025 passed in Cr. Revision No. 486 of 2024 is recalled. Matter is ordered to be compounded inter se parties. Impugned judgments of conviction and order of sentence passed by both the learned Courts below are quashed and set aside. Accused is acquitted of the offence punishable under Section 138 of the N.I. Act.

In terms of judgment passed by the Hon'ble Apex Court in Damodar S. Prabhu vs. Sayed Babalal H. (2010) 5 SCC 663, the applicant petitioner shall pay compounding fee i.e. 15 % of the cheque amount as costs. The same shall be paid to the H.P. State Legal Services Authority, Kasumpati, Shimla, H.P. within two months from today. It is made clear that the setting aside of ::: Downloaded on - 23/07/2025 21:27:40 :::CIS the conviction and order of sentence in the case at hand is .

State of HP and others vs. Sachin Kumar CMP(M) No.1836 of 2024 .

06.03.2025 Present: Mr. B.N. Sharma, Additional Advocate General, for the applicants/appellants-State.

Respondent though served, but there is no appearance on his behalf. Hence, he is proceeded against ex parte.

In the filing of the present appeal, there is a delay of about 122 days. The same has been duly explained in the application filed for condonation of delay. Even otherwise, while dealing with an application for condonation of delay filed by the State, one has to be conscious of the bureaucratic delays, impersonal nature of the governmental functioning, institutional interest and hence a justice oriented liberal approach has to be taken while dealing with such applications.

In this respect, it would be appropriate to refer to decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court passed in State of Manipur and others vs. Koting Lamkang , 2019 (10) SCC 408. The relevant extract of the same is being reproduced herein below:-

Other than the aforesaid, it would also be appropriate to refer to judgment dated 09.10.2023, passed in Civil Appeal No.5867 of 2015 titled Sheo Raj Singh (deceased) through LRs. and others vs. Union of India and another . The relevant extract of the same is being reproduced herein below:-. r "37. Having bestowed serious consideration to the rival contentions, we feel that the High Court's decision to condone the delay on account of the first respondent's inability to present the appeal within time, for the reasons assigned therein, does not suffer from any error warranting interference. As the aforementioned judgments have shown, such an exercise of discretion does, at times, call for a liberal and justice- oriented approach by the Courts, where certain leeway could be provided to the State. The hidden forces that are at work in preventing an appeal by the State being presented within the prescribed period of limitation so as not to allow a higher court to pronounce upon the legality and validity of an order of a lower court and thereby secure unholy gains, can hardly be ignored. Impediments in the working of the grand scheme of governmental functions have to be removed by taking a pragmatic view on balancing of the competing interests."

Hence, for the reasons/sufficient cause stated in the application & the aforesaid position of law, delay in filing the present appeal is condoned. Application stands disposed of.

Ms. Meera Devi, Advocate, vice Mr. Deepak Gupta, Advocate, for the petitioners.

Mr. Atul G. Sood, Advocate, for the respondents.

CMP No.4708/2024 in Civil Revision No.2 of 2016 The present application has been filed under Order 1 Rule 10 read with Section 151 of the Civil Procedure Code seeking impleadment of the applicant. The impleadment is sought on the ground that during the pendency of the proceedings, a share has been purchased by the applicant in the property in question, on 29.12.2007 and 30.11.2021.

Admittedly, in the case at hand, proceedings were instituted on 27.05.1998. The petition had been filed on the ground of bona fide requirement and cease to occupy. The present application has been filed by one Sh. Kartik Kumar, who seeks to be impleaded in the present proceedings by virtue of the present application. In this context, it would be appropriate to mention that a similar application had been filed by Sh. Kartik Kumar before the learned trial Court. The said application had ::: Downloaded on - 23/07/2025 21:27:43 :::CIS been dismissed by the trial Court on 22.12.2009. The said order .

has attained finality as the same was never challenged.

The well-settled principles, as to what has to be adjudicated in a rent petition, have been succinctly enumerated in case reported as 2018 (2) SCC 352, titled Kanaklata Das & Ors.

Vs. Naba Kumar Das & Ors. The relevant extract, whereof, is being reproduced herein below:-

From the aforesaid, it is evident that all that is to be determined in an eviction petition is the existence of relationship of landlord and tenant between the parties and the ground on ::: Downloaded on - 23/07/2025 21:27:43 :::CIS which the landlord has sought eviction under the Rent Act . The .

question of title is not germane to the eviction suit.

On filing of eviction petition rights of the parties have been crystallized on the date of the eviction suit and the entitlement of the co-owners to seek ejectment must be adjudged by reference to the date of institution of the suit. The only exception being when by virtue of a subsequent event the entitlement of the body of co-owners to eject the tenant comes to an end by act of parties or by operation of law. One co-owner filing a suit for eviction against the tenant does so on his own behalf in his own right and as an agent of the other co-owners. Having purchased the property pendente lite, the applicant cannot be allowed to take a stand contrary to one taken by his predecessors-in-interest and to the prejudice of the landlord whose rights the applicant has not purchased. In this respect, reference can be made to decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court in India Umbrella Manufacturing Co.

and others vs. Bhagabandei Agarwalla (dead) by LRs. Savitri Agarwalla (Smt) and others, 2004 (3) SCC 178.

Other than the aforesaid, the landlord is the dominus litus and he cannot be forced to add parties against whom he does not seek any relief, unless it is the compulsion of any rule of law. The judgment passed, in the case at hand, is the judgment in personam and not a judgment in rem. The same pertains only to the parties to the suit and not to persons who are not parties to the suit. Besides the aforesaid, the presence of the applicant is not necessary to enable the Court to effectively and completely adjudicate the question which arise for consideration.

In view of the aforesaid, there is no merit in the present .

application and the same is dismissed.
