Air India vs Cochin International Airport Ltd on 31 January, 2000
24. Mr. Mukul Rohtagi, learned Senior counsel appearing for
Respondent No.5 HLDPL first pointed out that NOCs have been
issued by both the ADM as well as the MCD for the transfer of its
shares in October 2006 and February 2007. Half the land had already
been sold pursuant to the NOCs. The land allotted to the DC was no
less valuable than the land which was earlier available to it. A large
amount of moneys had changed hands during these transactions and
therefore it would be unjust to put the clock back by declaring all
these transactions illegal. He also pointed out that government
officials were themselves responsible for bringing out the situation
and it would be unfair to blame the subsequent purchasers who had as
part of the due diligence and exercise obtained the NOC and clarified
that there was no encumbrance of the property. He finally submitted
that the MCD has already sanctioned the plan for building a motel and
HLDPL had already spent Rs.68.06 lakhs. Of the 5 bighas and 18
biswas of its land which forms part of the disputed land, 2 bighas and
6 biswas have been taken away for widening the road and only 3
bighas and 12 biswas of land remains. Any interference at this stage
would be inequitable. Reliance is placed on the decisions in Oil &

in the eye of law. Such a judgment, decree or order -- by the first
court or by the final court -- has to be treated as nullity by every court,
superior or inferior. It can be challenged in any court, at any time, in
appeal, revision, writ or even in collateral proceedings.

M.I. Builders Pvt. Ltd vs Radhey Shyam Sahu And Others on 26 July, 1999
In fact it is shocking that Smt. Ramesh
Kumari and her family members persisted with the sale transactions
notwithstanding this litigation. None of the interim orders in her

favour could have created any equity in her favour, much less in the
subsequent transferees. These are not cases where the court should
grant equitable relief to the transferees. As pointed out by the
Supreme Court in M.I. Builders Pvt. Ltd. v. Radhey Shyam Sahu
(1999) 6 SCC 464, in the context of unauthorised constructions by
builders, "a discretion cannot be exercised which encourages illegality
or perpetuates an illegality......judicial discretion cannot be guided by
expediency."
