A.S. Krishnamurthi vs Revenue Divisional Officer on 3 January, 1970

16. The further questions are whether such interest should be granted whether claimed by the interested person or not; and whether even if claimed this Court is bound to grant it notwithstanding the non-payment of Court-fee thereon in accordance with law. According to the Supreme Court in Raghubans Narain Singh v. Government of Uttar Pradesh (1967) 2 S.C.J. 214 : A.I.R. 1967 S.C. 465, the grant of interest under Section 28 of the Act raises a question of law and it can be considered by the High Court even when the referred Court has not granted the same.

State Of Maharashtra vs Shrimant Govindrao Narayanrao ... on 3 February, 1983

In fact, but for Raghubans Narain v. Government of Uttar Pradesh, A.I.R. 1967 S.C. 465, we would be inclined to think that the power under section 28 should not be read in any way differently from the power under section 34, notwithstanding the use of the word 'may' in section 28. Anyway, the discretion contemplated by section 28 is judicial discretion which naturally cannot be exercised arbitrarily. Once it is found that a claimant is entitled to a sum of money and for its payment on or before the date of delivery of possession and there is a default, he will, more often than not be entitled to interest thereon. There may, however, in a few cases, be circumstances which may indicate that the claimant is not entitled to interest. It is perhaps for this reason the Supreme Court was inclined to think that the power under section 28 was discretionary. Even so, we think that in the absence of special reasons, where excess compensation has been awarded by the Court, interest thereupon cannot reasonably be denied. In our opinion, interest under section 28 is not awarded as part of the compensation for acquisition of land, but only as interest on the amount of compensation for the said land, which the owner is entitled to payment when possession is taken but which the Collector has failed to pay on the due date."

Chandramallika Suppliers Private ... vs The State Of West Bengal & Ors on 5 October, 2016

In Digamber & Ors v. State Of Maharashtra & Ors, reported in 2013 (14) SCC 406, it was held, inter alia, to the effect that the acquisition of the land - whether for commercial purpose or not - should be the relevant criteria for determining the market value while applying the principles laid down in Atma Singh (supra). In other words, for ascertaining the market value of the land, the potentiality of the acquired land should also be taken into consideration.

The Union Of India (Uoi) vs Lalit Kumar Mukherjee And Ors. on 6 May, 1992

In support of his argument he has referred to and relied upon the decision in the case of Raghubans Narain Singh v. The Uttar Pradesh Government (supra). In the reported case the District Judge held that Referring Claimant is entitled to interest under Section 28 of the Land Acquisition Act, but allowed interest at 3% per annum observing that since the acquisition was for educational institution, interest at that rate was proper. The Supreme Court has held that it is the discretion of the Court whether it would allow interest or not, that once such discretion has been exercised, there is no further discretion and that interest if awarded has to be awarded at the rate as mentioned in Section 28 of the said Act. So in view of the aforesaid decision of the Supreme Court we hold that once the Arbitrator has exercised his discretion to allow interest on the amount of compensation, he has no further discretion and that the interest as directed to be paid by him is to be paid at the rate as provided in Section 28 of the Land Acquisition. Act. It has not been disputed that at the relevant time the rate of interest as payable under Section 28 of the Land Acquisition Act was 6% per annum.

Mehtar And Anr. vs The Collector, Durg And Ors. on 19 August, 1974

12. Our examination of the transactions proved by the Government was equally unfruitful. Surprisingly. the Officer-in-charge of the litigation, chose such transactions which were effected by or in favour of the claimants and it was reasonable to expect that the claimant s would not speak anything against their own interest but would rather endeavour to demolish the Government's case. This is exactly what happened. The claimant-witness was not inclined to produce his sale-deed, compelled the Government to lead secondary evidence and instead of supporting the transaction to be one of sale, something was said to construe it as a conditional mortgage. The trial Court was. therefore, inclined to reject all the sale-deeds.
