delay in bringing ha how many days Lord there is a Del of 33 days 333 days my what has happened application has been preferred by the a myot but there is a Meer objection therefore it was dismissed for default therefore lordship I file MCA and there is a delay of 330 days in MCA then what is the status of the sca not it is pending and it is going on myot it is coming before myot on ear earli before two days my now it is at on in month of so then cond please in filing the restoration application please restoration application in C yes yes number main matter is already pending huh number 11 next yes M okay let him be here number 12 this pertains to Grant of regularization to part-time employees in similar matter your leadership have issued notice notice returnable when are those matters coming up coming on third October for respond number one my for one and for Okay order I the bank order imp of the learn Dr Mumbai I me just give a brief facts on 9123 learned Dr dismiss the appeal of the borrower on the ground of delay 241 2023 the same they prefer Lear Dr 7th March 24 auction takes place on symbolic position the property is sold on 7th May 2024 the order which your office will find on page 83 yes is a conditional order by the Lear Dr granting stay in the favor of the borrower according to me there are not sufficient reasons recorded because Lo are well aware the section 18 the predeposit is of 50% in order to reduce 50% to a lesser amount learned D is obliged to give reasons to be recorded in writing is my case is not recorded So happily word it that as it may on 28th May the very same month despite the order of 7th May the borrower fails to make the predeposit so 28th May order is there which your losses will find on page 87 yes by virtue of which the appeal stands dismissed on page 87 because the condition of free deposit has video order dat 7th May is not comped correct now my case starts from here the borrow did not move for extension of time also corre he could have moved for extension of time before to learn a Dr for so and so reasons though order was passed on 7 may I could not deposit the B does not does so on 12th June the notice is issued by the concern Authority Under section 14 to take physical position on 30th June laes will remember that the O has already taken place yes now when on 12th June the notice is ised which your will find on page 88 and the date to take physical person is depicted on page 88 as 38 June yes so on 20th June the borrower moves to the Dr by filing an application for restoration of the appeal and undertakes to make the payment that payment is also made there is no issue on the aspect of payment but the issue is the Imp order is on page 12 the core question for the consideration of The Honorable court is when the appeal is dismissed for non-compliance and not for non prosecution I can understand yes if he had not appeared he could have restored it correct kindly appreciate the timeline the borrower sits over the matter 7th May the condition order is passed 28th May the appeal is dismissed he has not moved to the Dr for extension of time and when POS notice is issued on 12th June thereafter he files an application for restoration which the Le de restos on 20th June so my notice to take place on 30th June is frustrated correct and for which time was given for one month or so he eventually ends up getting six months time so for some time the borrower can app the entire Mischief borrower does not move the V on time does not file an application for seeking access of time also and when the notice is issued at the and moves to the DI and what otherwise the D would have given one month or two months time for payment he ends up getting more time correct so the question for loses consideration is on page 12 page 12 and the relevant portion starts from para 4 onwards which theable court will find on page 14 whether the Learned Dr has the power to restore the appeal which is dismissed for non- compliance I can quite see my L is dism for non prosecution the learn negatives the arent of the bank and says ultimately whether it's non prosecution or non- compliance what are the same things but kindly appreciate the effect of by while restoring the what is the direction so the order of 7th May is restored huh appeal is restored back to the original file 7th May order will revive they just stay order against me 7th May order May order your losses will find on page 83 then that the conditional order and state conditional deposit order page in a moment 7th May 83 it starts from page 83 the relevance for The Honorable code will be page 86 when he was directed to make the P make the payment so then he has made the payment earlier not but now he has now he has made the payment then how was that payment accepted if there was no appeal before that canly see page6 I see because there was no appeal was dismissed for want of prosecution or for non-compliance of the directions please once it was dismissed it was not on the file file of the learning Dr now if it was not on the file of the Dr then the could not have accepted the payment no it would not number of times unless it is on the file once I restore a petition only then it would be reflected for that purpose honorable kindly go to page 15 my lord5 yes and it starts from page 14 bottom my lords page 14 bottom the Imp order in the instant case par five page 14 in the instant case the app were directed to deposit the some of rupes 35 LHS as predeposit for entertaining the appeal he essentially paid only some of 5 lakhs and the balance sum of 30 lakhs was directed to be deposited in cres which he defaulted and therefore as per the order order the appeals to dismiss for default of non-compliance now with this application the appellant are depositing the entire amount so he comes on 20th June just two days prior and says I'm making the payment so what he has not gained by 7th May order by this Mischief I POS a question to myself whether that's why lar can restore it back so for non-compliance corre otherwise every borrow will sit at the fence and when will isue the notice then only we'll go and then we'll take the advantage of 6 months8 months time there is there would the statute provides any time section 18 for the Moment by section 18 the statute says at the time of appeal he has to make the payment section 18 second unnumbered provisor second unnumbered provisor appended to section 18 runs th provided further that no appeal shall be entertained unless the borrower is deposited with the app tribunal 50% of the amount of Deb due from him as claimed by the secal creditors or determined by the DRT whichever is less and then the third unnum Proviso provided also that the app May for the reasons to be recorded in writing reduce the amount to not less than 25% of date referred to in the second provisor so legally D cannot entertain the appeal but procedurally what happens is when I file an appeal I move an application of wer I keep that application of w also pending for months together when the bank issues notice I go to the Dr and kindly pass the order of reducing the amount correct and if he's able to successfully pursu the authorities not to take the position he will allow the order to also live his own life and then when the second notice comes like this in this case then he will go over the process entirely circumventing the public money Rec they kindly appreciate my predic property sold in March 2024 I have to give to the purchaser today who is the worst affected is the purchaser not the bank bank has pocketed the money he get a stay order heard Mr vishwas Kish the learn advate of heing the applicant by of present petition the petitioner hearing is

Outsourcing agency which is against the order passed by this honorable court so what happened was in the year 2006 and 2012 they passed a government resolution for outsourcing the the services of part- timers against which some part-timers approached this court court and the Court held that Outsourcing policy is bad in law all right which is why the gr of 16 2019 came into place Min giving minimum but you are prayed that the wages of from March 20124 that is the limited why right now in the Civil application that is what they not paying the wages they are saying that we will give you we will start paying you if you start working through an Outsourcing so if I accept work through Outsourcing my prayers for regularization my prayer for minimum wages everything then if you don't work we are working we are working they taking work from us but they want to pay us through an Outsourcing agents so while you are working you are not uh you are not accepting the payment that is made by them no no it is not that we are not accepting we are not accepting working through and Outsourcing I follow your B all right you take instructions huh Mr Muna I'm sure let notice be heard Miss STI the Learned Advocate appearing for that isue notice making it returnable on next Friday a copy of the notice issue okay and the main matter will also go on next number this Mr call Mr ra the serial after second in the second half I dictation no but for me I'm yes Mr yes but on the last hearing I had pointed out factual details correct I may very shortly summarize those details yes Surat Municipal Corporation had granted lease to the respondent society on 18th of April 1968 for a period of 50 years yes that lease came to an end on 17th of April 2018 therefore the society textile Cooperative societies moved the application before Surat Municipal Corporation for renewal of Le and stated that whatever amount you fix it would be acceptable with some negotiation so there is mot we are the members the corporation has mot increase the prices of the lease amount so disproportionately Mal which is M according to the petitioners it is M contrary to the settle principles of and the details of the same if your lots are pleased to consider they are initially malot total land area is 18,41 square met and annual rent of the land was 38852 now my lords according to our calculations my lords May kindly see what is the effect of and whether it would be open to a whether it will be open to a public body like Municipal Corporation to charge this amount your L May kindly see M this is the table which I have prepared there are three lease dates of the Year 1968 at the that is 18th April 1968 5th of November 1969 23rd of July 1970 these M total area is my Lord 24435 and total amount annually is 51313 PES so Municipal Corporation was charging 51,000 from textile Society every year for this 24435 square meter now my Lord what is the new uh new Arrangement rent amount for one year it was previously 24435 so that is maintained then pre premium is taken at the jentri price which comes to malot 12 89 uh 1 28 lakh 96,2 rupees so what was my Lord previously 51,3 rupees it is now Mal 1 28 lakh 96,2 rupees for the same area per an for the same area yes cor so it is this small and this amount P which is fixed by Surat Municipal Corporation is approved by the state government and this liability comes upon the members because my Lord members who were otherwise paying my Lord at the rate of 51313 now my Lord are asked to contribute one 29 lakh 2,685 every year for 10 years mot yes yes I follow so this is malot so you are agreed by the new agreement agree by new agreement this these are the factual details Lord for which my Lord on previous occasion I had brought your lordship's kind attention that this is not open to a local body body which is not to charge such exor amount of lease from the parties so this is M the issue which is subject matter of challenge in this repetion followed m Lord in support of my submissions M Lord that this is not at all permissible at the end of the Surat Municipal Corporation and by the confirmation by the state government my submission which I had M Lord on the last occasion briefly pointed out M Lord I would just again summarize it Lord what is done this time is the base of jentry price is taken for the purpose of determination of renewal of lease that is contrary to the settle principle of law what has been done is take the case mot that in this area jentry price is 10,000 rupees per square meter so 10,000 is taken based for the purpose of determination of malot the lease amount it is not a sell it is not a sell transaction even thenot 10,000 rupees is taken for the purpose of determining the lease amount yes so the very principle applied what the purpose of determination of the Le amount itself isot contrary to setal principle of I had further pointed out Lord that under the rent act Lord rent Act is between the private landlord and the Tenant to the state government and Municipal Corporation these land laws regulations do not apply rent does not apply so I do not bring malot that it Municipal Corporation is the landlord Municipal Corporation is the less or the respondent society is the Lessing but if it would have been owned by a private party and it would have been governed under rent act maximum permissible increase in rental amount is 4% every year so a private person who leses out his property for the purpose of earning for the purpose of profit or for the purpose of return better return of his property who lets out the property my Lord if he has given M Lord a premises on lease by way of rent to the tenant and say for month every month he's required to pay rupes 100 next year my Lord maximum amount of Rise which the landlord can have is 4% so next year M he can have 104 rupees increase the one who is letting out the premises for the purpose of profit or for a better return from his property here the state government namely Municipal Corporation a Public Authority Under article 12 has defied all all the Notions and all the established Norms with respect to the lease amount I had further submitted to your laips that concept of Premium is alien to the fixation of these amount because my Lord it is not that the land is being sold to the party the right to occupy is given to the society and not mot the permanent ownership rights and here is a case M Lord where before 50 years Municipal Corporation had given Baron land to the textile Society only land was given then this Society M creating the funds from its own resources has built up a shopping center which was which is considered to be one of the finest uh trading center in city of su now it has M its value has been increased considerably and M Lord as far as trading place is concerned textile Market of Surat occupies a special place but that isot the act of the society not of Surat Municipal corporations it is the society who built up the shopping mall mot shopping centers mot shops the Traders have come and they have made a big name of this textile Society textile Market as far as corpor option is concerned it contribution is nothing Beyond Grant of the land so if that is the case M such a charging of the amount which is now ultimately the burden is like a tax burden is on the taxpayers same those Society has agreed the burden is upon the members like the petitioners therefore they are agreeed correct my further submission to a lordship is mord that there is a post office mord in the area where the rental increase is not that way I have pointed out those figures of post office case and here Lord such a astronomical amount is determined The Honorable Supreme Court head malot considered the aspect about the charging of the amount when the state or state Authority is the owner of the land or the building and my Lord where the underlying principle is that state or state authorities is not a private landlord who should engage itself into profit earing or charging of high amount and its decision should be packed by reasons in support of my submissions I propose to site couple of judgments to youres First in point of time is dadas maras case orted in 1989 3 SEC page 293 I would uh humbly and respectfully urge your LS to see paragraph 16 on page 303 our attention was also drawn by Mr chinai learned counil for the appellant to the observations in administrative law by which fifth edition at page 355 it was stated therein as follows statutory power conferred for public purposes is conferred as it were upon trust not absolutely that is to say it can validly be used only in the right and proper way which Parliament when conferring it is presumed to have intended then my lords May kindly turn to paragraph 23 next page mod page 304 yes the contractual privileges are made immune from the protection of the rent act for the respondent because of the public position occupied by The respondent Authority hence its actions are amable to judicial review only to the extent that state must act validly for a designable reason not whimsically for any ulterior purpose where any special right or privilege is granted to any public or statutory body on the presumption that it must act in certain manner such bodies must make good such presumption while acting by virtue of such privileges judicial review to oversee if bodies are so acting is permissible then my lords May kindly turn to paragraph 27 on page 306 we are inclined to accept the submission that every activity of a Public Authority especially in the background of the Assumption on which such Authority enjoys immunity from the Rus of the rented must be informed by reason and guided by by the public interest all exercise of discretion or power by public authorities as the respondent in respect of dealing with tenants in respect of which they have been treated separately and distinctly from other landlords on the assumption that they would not act as private landlords must be judged by that standard if a government policy or action even in contractual matters fails to satisfy the test of reasonableness it would be uncons stitutions then Lord honorable Supreme Court has referred to certain judgments this was a case Lord where Bombay for TR act has redetermined the lease charges and the lease holders were agreed by the very high rise made by Bombay public trust with respect to those lands and premises that was a case which had gone to the honorable Supreme Court and honorable Supreme Court in those facts my have made these observation say that public bodies they do not are they are not subject to the provisions of L rent act yes therefore they must act with reasonable reasonable man pleas Lord I propose to rely upon another judgment Lord 20043 Supreme Court cases page 214 this also arose from Bombay malod with respect to the provisions uh with respect to the properties of Bombay Port first the L malot referred to dwarkadas Marfa which I just now read yes in paragraph 14 yes but I would respectfully urge your LS to see paragraph 16 to paragraph 19 paragraph 16 starts at from page 235 the position of law is settled that the state and its authorities including instrumentalities of the state have to be just fair and reasonable in all their activities including those in the field of contracts even while playing the role of a landlord or tenant the state and its authorities remain so and cannot be heard or seen causing displeasure or discomfort to article 14 of the Constitution of India it is common knowledge that several rent control legislation exist spread around the country the emergence whereof was witnessed by post World War scarcity of accommodation often these legislations exempt from their applicability the properties owned by the government semi-government or public bodies government on corporations trust and other instrumentalities of the state what is the purpose do the legislature intend to leave such entities absolutely unbridled and uncontrolled as landlords from the operation of the rent control legislation or do they do so with some hope and trust in such institution in dadas Marfa and Sons a few decisions and authorities were cited before this call the observation of Chief Justice chaga as His Lordships then was in Ram prad J versus Dominion of India where with approval stating that while enacting rent control legislation the government seeks to achieve the object of protecting the tenants and preventing the rent from being increased and people from being ejected unreasonably then it cannot be assumed that the very government would itself be indulging in those very activities which it was proposing to prevent by enacting such laws the underlying assumption behind granting exemption from the operation of the rent control legislation was that the government would not increase rents and would not eject tenants unless it was necessary to do so in public interest and a particular building was required for the public purpose it was also pointed out that the government or local Authority or the board would not be actuated by any profit making motive so as to unduly enhance the rents or eject the tenants from their respective properties as private landlords or are like lik ly to be this court in babur ra Mo versus Bombay housing board recognized that the basis of differentiation in favor of public authorities like Bombay Port trust was on the ground that they would not act for their own purpose as private landlords do but would act for public purposes the cult held in dardas Marfa that the public authorities will enjoy the benefits without being hidebound by the requirements of the rent act must act for public benefit where they fail to do so they render themselves as amenable to adjudication under civil review jurisdiction of the Court a division bench of the Bombay High Court prided over by Mrs sujata Mano as her lordship then was held in rataj paloni Capia versus state of Maharashtra that the exemption from the provisions of the rent control law cast an obligation on the state and its instrumentalities and authorities to comply with the public policy of ensuring a Fair return of investment without charging exor button rates based on the prevailing market price of the land thus a balance has to be struck between ensuring a fair return on investment and charging exor rates based on the prevalent market prices of land which would be of utmost relevance to any other land the state government in order to justify a steep increase in rent cannot plead exploitative increases in prices of lands reference in this connection may also be made in Kumari sria viari versus state of up where in this Court held that while acting in the field of contractual rights the personality of the state does not undergo such a radical change as not to require regulation of its conduct by article 14 it is not as if the requirements of article 14 and contractual obligations are alien concept which cannot coexist our constitution does not envisage or permit unfairness or unreasonable in state action in any sphere of activities contrary to the propes ideals in the Preamble exclusion of article 14 in contractual matters is not permissible in our constitutional scheme in PJ Irani versus state of Madras the Constitution bench observed that the tenant in a building owned by the state or its instrumentality is not liable to eviction Solly because the tency has terminated the existence of R control legislation though not applicable to such building is suggestive of the state policy of protecting tenants because of the great difficulty of their obtaining alternative accommodation in our opinion in the field of contracts the state and its instrumentalities ought to so design their activities as would ensure Fair competition and non-discrimination they can augment their resources but the object should be to serve the public cause and to do public good by resorting to fair and reasonable math the the state and its instrumentalities as the landlords have the liberty of revising the rates of rent so as to compensate themselves against loss caused by inflationary Tendencies they can and rather must also save themselves from negative balances caused by the cost of Maintenance payment of taxes and cost of administration the state as the landlord need not necessarily be a benivolent and good charitable sarian the felt need for expanding or s stimulating its own activities or other activities in the public interest having once a reason the state need not hold its hand from seeking eviction of its lesses however the state cannot be seen to be indulging in R renting profiteering and indulging in Whimsical or unreasonable evictions or Bargains a balance has to be struck between the two extremes having been Exempted from the operation of rent control legislation the courts cannot hold them tied to the same shackles from which the state and its instrumentalities have been freed by the legislature in their wisdom and thereby requiring them to be ruled indirectly or by analogy by the same law from which they are exempt otherwise it would tent amount to defeating the exemption Clause consciously enacted by the legislature at the same time the Liberty given to the state and its instrumentality by the statute enacted under the Constitution does not exempt them from honor ing the Constitution itself they continue to be ruled by article 14 the validity of their actions in the field of landlord tenant relationship is available to the tested and not under the rent control legislation but under the Constitution the rent control legislations are temporary if not seasonal the Constitution is permanent and all time at all time honorable Supreme Court M has reiterated the same principle and has mot followed vadas Mar to which my Lord I had made reference on previous occasions yes in that judgment Bombay High Court's judgment is referred to yes honorable Justice suata manohar's judgment my Lord in jump that case Lord this judgment my Lord which is my Lord explained later on in another judgment Lord and another view is taken but this judgment of division bench of Bombay High Court dated 23rd April 1992 Lord comes very closely to the facts of the case and M Lord with your L's permission I would read M Lord first to Lord have the proper my Lord uh appr appreciation of the effects kindly turn to paragraph two I would very quickly read the facts of this petitions paragraph two all this petition pertain to 48 plots land situated in Mount Mary pandra Bombay the respondent state of Maharashtra is the owner of these plots of land the state had executed long-term Lees in respect of these plots of land in favor of private parties from 197 onwards the petitioners in this R petitions are the present lasses of these 48 plots of land from the state government they have challenged in this R petition a decision of the state government dated 14th March 1986 under which the state government has increased the lease rent in respect of residential plots of Landing question to 25 times what the petitioners were paying as lease rent prior to 1st January 1981 while reviewing the lease of the petitioners for a period of 10 years from 81 to 91 although the rent has been so increased from 81 the decision in this regard has been taken only on 14th March 86 and is intimated thereafter to the petitions a few of the petitioners were informed of this increase as late as in 1991 for the first time that my lords May kindly turn to paragraph 8 we have to examine whether the government resolution of 14th March 86 under which lease period of 48 plots is extended at a revised lease rent for residential plot at the rate of 25 times the rent prevailing as on January 1981 and for commercial plot at 50 times the rent prevailing prior to 1st January 1981 can be considered as fair and reasonable one looking to all the circumstances or whether the action of the state government is arbitrary and unreasonable follow paragraph 10 relevant is last three lines of paragraph 10 this according to the state government itself would be exerimental and unreasonable hence in order to Liston the burden on the lesses the state government took a policy decision recorded in the order of 14th March 86 to charge only 25 times or 50 times the existing Lee rent as the case may be then Lord paragraph 11 refers to stand of the state government then my lords May kindly turn to my Lord the reasoning part malot final paragraph Yes on paragraph 26 yes in this circumstances the petitioners are entitled to succeed we set aside the government resolution of 14th March 1986 and the consequent orders and the notice of demand which have been issued on the petitioner hearing and direct the respondents to renew lies a fresh on terms and conditions based upon principles set out early till such time as new Lee rents are fixed by the state government in accordance with law and the leases are renewed for a reasonable period the petitioner shall continue to pay the existing rent for the period commencing from 1st January 81 onwards until such time as new lease rent is fixed by the state government in accordance with law then lot further uh directions are given Lord honorable Judge Malon in paragraph 20 16 and 19 malot have dealt with these aspects Lord paragraph 14 Lord then I would respectfully urge your Lordships to see paragraph 16 kindly see M this is paragraph 16 it was urged by the respondents that in increasing Lee rent they have not acted unreasonably unfairly or in violation of principles of rent control legislation because they are not seeking to charge rent on the basis of the current market value of the land they have only charged 25 times the previous rank but the respondent do seek to establish that charging 25 times or 50 times of the previous rent is reasonable by referring to what they would have charged for the plot had it been an open plot leased out for the first time now by comparing the new proposed rent with the lease rent based on the current market value of rent the very Norm for comparison is a wrong norm and increase in rent by adopting such standards of comparison would be contrary to the policy underlying rent control legislation otherwise every landlord can justify rent increases in this man all right followed Mr grateful then lastly yes Lord then in Kumari honorable Supreme Court in 191 1 SEC page 212 paragraph 23 24 and 26 I would uh read uh Place stress on those judgments those paragraphs paragraph 23 paragraph 21 and 22 M also deals with the same aspects the principles which have been previously I have read it then paragraph 23 and 24 and finally my Lord paragraph 26 where the honorable Supreme Court refers to my Lord judicial review and contractual powers of public authorities and there the honorable Supreme Court mord reads the principles of article 14 and principles of equality and F since this judgment Lord refers to Lord deals with the same principles for the sake of bravy I rely upon the same but I would not take your lordship's time M again to read M the same principles yes it is relied upon by in the yes yes yes yes then M Lord recently M Lord Bombay high court has Mal though on a different point the petition is not entertained of the petitioners but on the point about how to fix the lease rent Mal yes paragraph 54 may be seen the findings m Issue Number Eight can the government fix the lease rent for lands leased by the government to the petitioners yes by taking into account the value of the land what we say jentri price Lord as for the ready Rea Lord honorable Bombay High Court Mal has referred given findings on this point at paragraph 57 wherein The Honorable court malot has referred to the Judgment of Bombay high court of RTI paloni kapia and other judgments then Lord honorable Bombay High Court mot refers to Jamshed V's case M which I had just uh State brought it to your lordship's kind notice your lordship May yes yes Bombay High Court Ms the findings final findings are in paragraph 67 yes and I would point out that what has been done held by The Honorable Supreme Court it does not rule out taking into consideration the value of the land but to the extent of 25% that was the issue here it is 100% hence to conclude on this issue we are of the opinion that rati paloni kapia does not in any way completely prohibit the government from taking into consideration the value of the land while fixing the lease rent as mentioned earlier by the impat the government has not taken into consideration the full value of the land but has been mindful of the fact that there are sitting Lees on the S land and hence decided that the lease rent would be calculated on the basis of 25% of the value of the land so Le D is that is considered on the basis of 25% okay here it is 100% so would have been 25% the petitioners may be face with this principle that Bombay high court has taken the view I would respectfully submit that anything fixed Beyond 25% would be arbitrary and would fall F of my Lord the principles laid down by honorable Supreme Court in dadas Maria's case in jamshed's Cas and in s yes as far as other submissions M Lord against the petitioners there are two major submissions which are broadly one could I could find it out one is your I would deal with it in the rejoiner but kindly see mot the array of respondents in this petitions in this present petition present petitions respondent number two is the E Surat Municipal Corporation H who is the owner of the land and with whom respondent number four Surat textile Market Cooperative Society has entered into the agreement the stand of Surat Municipal Corporation and respondent number four is that the privity of contract is between Surat Municipal Corporation and Sur textile Market Cooperative Society yes and you are the members therefore you are the members if you have any dispute you go to another po but I have no dispute with Sur textile Cooperative Society therefore the Forum under Section 96 of Gujarat Cooperative societies Act I do not want to go there because I do not have that dispute with next time what I am disputing is M the manner in which Surat Municipal Corporation had fixed the Le amount of such astronomical amount which is agreed by respondent m correct true so in my respectful submissions the petitioners are questioning the decision of Surat Municipal Corporation and and the decision of the state government wherein the resolution of Surat Municipal Corporation is confirmed or approved by the state government so the petitioners are malot challenging this decisions which would be outside the scope and Ambit of section 96 of Gujarat Cooperative society's act because I as members of respondent number four Cooperative Society cannot go to nominees cour against Surat Municipal Corporation or against state of Gujarat saying that you have very at a very high price or very astronomical rate you have fixed the lease be therefore only Forum available to the petitioners is this R petition wherein I the petitioners would raise M the contention that even if the respondent number four has agreed it was the duty of respondent State Surat Municipal Corporation and the state government to see that there is no exploit ation of the members because it is not the society which is to pay the amount Society has transferred the liability to all the members true so what we were otherwise paying my Lord say 3,000 rupees every month or every year now it is my Lord in Lex so that is the area M Lord which is pinching to the petitioners m Lord which is affecting the rights of the petitioners and therefore the petitioners are questioning the decision of Surat Municipal Corporation and the state of Gujarat which is which has approved the state decision and therefore my Lord only course of action available to the petitioners is the jurisdiction of these further calculation is made M this is the last Point yes wherein if M 4% principle of increase would have been made for 50 years if is turn to next page turns the page mode it would be 36467 instead of that it is 1 26 lakhs minimum main amount so if there is 4% increase every year every year compound first year is it is so that increase is also added into the next year youres may kindly see 51315 4% so it comes to 252 so it is 53367 next year that is the I'm grateful to your yes yes Mr P you would be CR cross the the society is also it is a society right the society Busy Body I strongly disapprove that petition it's a busy body the petition he's a public interest spirited so it is filed by this textile Market he's not our member he is out to spoil our matter no but he so he's not the society no he's not the he challenging entire he says that he has no Locus to inter into our internal office followed yes yes I am a uh elected corporator yes corporator yes my in opposition now I have challenged I have Council and corporator if my lords may see article four 243 W of constitution of India that will suffice my Locust okay and that will also uh I'll will also demonstrate the powers and duties which the the municipality is bound under constitution of India correct all right yes 243 W yes Powers Authority and responsibility of municipalities Etc if I please subject to provisions of this constitution the legislature of state may by law Ando a the municipalities with such powers and Authority as may be necessary to enable them to function as institution of self-government and such law may contain Provisions for Devolution of powers and responsibility upon municipalities subject to such condition as may be specified here in with respect to now these are the points which municipalities has do there to pre of preparation of plan of Economic Development and social justice now the commercial aspect which I'll point out this will fall under preparation of plan two performance of functions and implementation of schemes as may be interested to them including those in relation to the matter listed in 12th schedule B the Committees with such powers and authorities as may be necessary to enable them to carry out responsibility conferred upon them including those in relation to the matter listed in 12 schedule now I being an elected I am Duty bound under subclause B correct to ensure the responsibility conferred in relation to the matters in the 12th schedule the my lords may have the 12 12 schedule yes the D schedu are there are 18 points urban planning including town planning regulation of land use and construction of buildings planning for economic and social development now others are there mainly will be roads and bridges that there everything will be main water supply for domestic commercial nine will be seen safeguarding the interest of weaker section of society including the handicaps and mentally in all there are other promotion burial cattle and public amenities there is no uh specific to develop any commercial activity only the the municipality is obliged to plan so municipality has has in in the arguments they have stated that the particular land is been an year marked for commercial activities yes now I won't repeat all the resolution which my learned friend has read only just to summarize in 1967 the land was allotted to the society for 50 year Le now this the the regulation under which the current uh resolutions were passed that is the regulation it has a regulation uh which says Gujarat town planning Urban Development act the urban area Development Authority reg uh disposal of land regulation now that regulation came in 2002 in my um submission once the regulation are enforced the corporation has to restrict itself is bound by the Bound by the regulation they cannot go beyond the regulation you are right now uh page 19 of my petition is the first resolution resolution one uh resolution number first resolution which says TP scheme number Revenue survey number so and so final plot 141 y Jag tender jat haraj deposit of land and other property regulation resolutions are passed under regulation 13 if my Lord may see page 33 of my petition I have I have already annexed the entire regulation the regulation 13 is important allotment of land site development rights or special cases The Authority may receive an offer from institution charitable trust educational and research Institution societies religious trust for development of an institution of a deaf and dump or blind person sports complex and any other such development which would be beneficial to general public and the society as a whole in such cases Authority May apply to the government for permission for recommendation for allotment of plot land in particular or the decision of government shall be final yes so this is the main Crux of my matter that that regulation says that only on the specific cases where it is for the uh develop it is for the development and beneficial to general public and a society as a whole now I'll just point out what the exact what the respondent society is doing respond Society initially land was given on that on that land respondent Society built up a shopping complex now this shopping complex ongoing they have uh leased out the those offices and complex hotels there are banks there is post office which my L has read get their post office and everything now these falls under commercial activities even the shops there is no social activity carried out on this land only business activities are carried out now when commer activities are there then regulation 13 won't be applicable it will fall under regulation 8 page 31 mys yes it says development and disposal of commercial area or neighborhood plots commercial land shall be disposed of by auction and inviting trender through prominent daily newspapers the premium price shall not be less than the prevailing Mark or the reserve price whichever is more follow now resolution which was which is in under challenge that is based on jentry value not the market value on that count also since it is for commercial activities this resolution ought not to have been passed and deserves to be cost and satisfied now on the building part page 87 building an 87 is an representation by the society if my lords may come to page 88 that this is the letter was extensively read through it it talks about the taex and the pending rent which is to be collected if my lords may see number number one number two number two ta refund 42 number four the amounts are not sub even the commercial activities are not a small commercial activities where it goes beyond it's a full fled business Hub correct if my lords may see page 90 what Society has to say to the condition of the building itself the building itself is 50 years old my lords have day in day out there are Redevelopment petitions 30 years old are are to be redeveloped this building is itself 50 years old oh you are there you are right I was there on the last date of hearing yes so in my submission the building also is old okay so then you come to the main point how are you agreed I am agreed because under Artic I am I have to see that the uh society as whole and the rules are being followed okay I have stated I have gone through the schedule so you you are a corporator I am a corporator so you must be a member of the general body indeed ma'am tamaru objections and I have raised objection even you are the sole person no there are other objections which were raised I have attached all the objections raised at the relevant point of time but why are you coming in if there is some development l in the city how is it prejudicial in your according to you for the development for those members who are residing or are who are having their shops it's a commercial complex it appears that since 1965 there is a lease which is continuing it must have come to an end and in view thereof minute you want them you want that there should be some new development should take place and they should be dislocated what is your intention mind and this it's year mark for commercial activities commercial activities permissible the process is followed here the land is only sold land is only leased not the shops shops they have constructed and they are earning in profit on that one has the right to one's livelihood how are you concerned livelihood Al be doing some business no my St my say is regulations ought not to have molded to that effect to give privilege to certain class of people but that uh no certain class of people why what is what is that privilege that is here there is a member who is agreed by that they have agreed but the amount in my hum submission is very low 50,000 is the market I have Ed in my application also per shop 50,000 while they have considered the jentry rate by which Mr Jan's clients are agreed according to you it should be auction very good and auction it cannot mold no other objection my only objection that that the rate of market value there is loss to public X Checker because of that that I have a in my petition because only lost to public a checker since it is not sold not given as per the regulation hence I am before my lords regulation eight eight if my lords may see I have in my application it's regulation eight is at page 31 31 regulation eight of the this in fact for each and every uh gondra there are different regulation seven is for playground eight is for commercial nin is for educational 10 is for medical 11 is for residential 12 is for employees of the authority 13 is specifically for the class of person who are literally affected which are Duff and D blind Sports Complex for the benefit of general public at large so 13 cannot be molded to benefit certain class of people for commercial activities but in the present casee whether there was any option no no option there was no so option under such circumstances then tenders are required to be called for two prominent Daily newspaper and then naturally it would the premium price it should not be less than the market price market price the market price will in the present case there is no option there is no option they have molded they have molded 13 to use 13 and without auction given on lease otherwise they have to for if the procedure is followed they have to give a public auction and in that the society may also apply everyone can apply correct for commercial it's for commercial activity only the land cannot be used for residential purpose as of now this is my only because the loss which I have stated in my petition that counting 60 uh 50,000 per office per per shop there is a appro monetary loss of 61 CR to the public ex Checker 10% loss at 99 years and and another Point only land is given Not Just J okay the market value yes my clients have not joined I may point out this I know out of 120 there are 120 Municipal corporators and here is the petitioner number only petitioner before your La shs who is agree that is one secondly petitioner is not Municipal Corporation Municipal Corporation is different my learned friend refers to mot constitutional provisions and says that these are the Constitutional Provisions in relation to municipality but my learn friend is not municipality he does not satisfy the taste and definition of municipality he's only one living individual out of 120

action of the respondent authorities in issuing notice dated 3rd July 2023 an ex now this is important whereby The respondent Authority has issued a notice to so and so flat owners of including present petitioners families who have been served with notice to demolish the premises IE sikander so and so aasa beura noted by the central government constructed by the Urban Development Urban housing department my lords May oblige me by coming directly to the said notice at page 108 yes so the petitioner understanding of the notice at page 108 third July 2023 it is a demolition this my lords is a notice under Section 265 of the gpmc corre if I may read the second unnum correctc so and so I have not called for demolition correct so the premise that the petition is built on is a is a misgiving there is no endeavor on part of the corporation to demolish this petition was filed almost one year ago yes we have not demolished in fact after this prior to the monsoon of 2024 we have issued a fresh public notice and similar notice to the petitioners which is not challenged my lords May for a moment have the gpmc yes by gpmc yes yes okay and lot ships may please have 265 yes it

notice require the owners of any building to get building inspected at such interval and in such manner as may be prescribed in the bylaws the owner shall within two months I may skip that and four a report of every inspection under subsection two shall forth with be submitted to the commissioner expense in Cut shall be paid by owner this is the notice I have issued yes my learned friend's petition is premised on 268 my lords may have 268 which I have not issued cor despite a year of the notice dated third July having been issued so the only thing that I have sounded the petitioners off and this was if my lords may please oblige me again by having page 108 and reference may be seen prior to this notice being issued in fact I issued a public notice yes on 6th June 2023 correct and there after the present impune communication I have no intention of demolishing I have only sounded the petitioners that it is high time that they take care of their structur and therefore in my

which are on record they appear to be Dil ped it appears that if this photograph is a correct photograph at page 138 if a building is U constructed and if it was a building which is constructed before 10 years under such circumstances the quality of the building is such that how would one reside and if it is under somea submission my learned friend relies on the regulations of 200 h regulation for residential Township the first of the regulations that is relied on is 12.10 12.10 is in connection with infrastructure yes which is can you give it to the sure sir def my lords may have regulation 3.9 yes regulation 3.9 defines infrastructure yes infrastructure shall include Road Street Open Spaces Parks playgrounds recreational ground water electricity Supply and in that context if now regulation 12.10 which is cited by my learned friend is SE yes this is uh a misunderstood reference because 12.10 would not apply to the facts of the case 12.10 is for peripherial infrastructure yes that's submission number one submission number two my learned friend relies on regulation 19 grievance redressal huh which is the prescribed Authority under these regulations yes and that prescribed Authority is the state level screening committee yes and thereafter another Authority which is in the nature of an appell body correct my learned friends contentions come for the first time 12 years after the units are allotted to the petitioners and only after I issue notice under 265 the structures in question are in a slightly hazardous condition because of unauthorized en unauthorized extensions done by these petitioners today if my learned friend does not press prayer 9B as he has made a statement then 9 C is a connected relief that is 9 D and D are reliefs in the which can either be pursued in suit Remedy or before the prescribed Authority Under This Very regulation that my learned friend relies on correct so if he's relying on these regulations then the remedy lies under for the prescribed Authority underation 19 therefore Reliance is placed on these regulations then the remedy lies under 19 19 therefore since my friend has now forone 9B yes and we are left with CDE C is also was and set aside now so DND is before prescribed Authority and therefore I started by saying that there was no cause of action because the apprehension was without reading the notice at page 108 they said this is a demolition notice this is a notice under 265 therefore in my respectful submission this petition does not deserve to be entertained and at best it is always open for the petitioner to go before the prescribed Authority I'm grateful heard Mr the learc Mr G the learing for the respond you would be appearing for the corporation would be appearing for 3 five and six State

the service for is number six last time I obje now you can take ready ready reference I make a one table regarding difference of the two apps H so I'm giving the yes the prary object is yes yes hello hello hello yes six of my return submission yes I'll make table regarding difference of the two Society register register under the different acts yes now first The Cooperative Housing Society register under provision section 9 of the Gujarat Cooperative societ act in flat ownership act Cooperative housings there must be a Cooperative housing service Society under flat owners not a Housing Society a Cooper housing service Society registered under provision of section 10 of the Gujarat owners flat act second in the Cooperative Housing Society register under section under act 1961 there are two types of the Housing Society I already arue argue on that point L yes that I'm conscious been as per section 10 of the Gujarat flat ownership act in case of the Cooperative Society registered under the Act of 1973 the promoters first purchase the land and construct the building and sell its own on ownership basis and after that the promoter shall within the prescribed period submit an application to the register for registration of the organization of the person who take the flats as a Cooperative Society or as Cas may be as a company and the promoter shall join in respect of the flat which have not been taken in such application for membership of a Cooperative Society or as case may now third not yes third point in case of Cooperative Housing Society is classified under section 12 of the Gujarat Cooperative societies act 1961 there must be a classification under section 12 of a Cooperative Society correct uh in that onip act there is no classification of the society now fourth there is no chapter of Cooperative Housing Society registered under the Act only the biologos is registered and the same is looking into the matters of the poerty Housing Society in flat ownership act the various section I already argued L last time yes you are right yes I remember so my respectful submission is that section 41 A is only in relation to the G society which registered under Section 10 of the black ownership act there is no definition of the Housing Society is given in the flat ownership act that's right so this is the preliminary cond preliminary objection first objection I have raised that my appeal is pending and I have already CED Judgment of the Supreme Court and the statutory tribal is there yes then you are the app I'm the and now Lord in latest what have you challenged what have you challenged in I have challenged that my possession cannot be taken I have already challenged that the Redevelopment discrimination of Redevelopment is challenged a both things are tell let us no now in latest lordship the lordship has given one judgment on 16th August 2024 so far as the alternative remed is concerned now here is section5 of the yes there 10 it is submitted by the respondent in this matter it it is I Mark marking yes it is open for the petitioner hearing to prefer revision application under section5 of the Cooperative societies act which is an alternative remedy correct it is submitted so here my case is that I have applied statutory remedy available under tribunal correct as a statutory appeal correct if this directly they came here without uh before the tribunal approach he has to approach the tribunal to decide the appeal as early as possible correct true but to file this petition directly corre so if this petition is entertain allowed huh then my rights statut right of appeal May beiz true and therefore I requesting lordship yes to give a direction to the tribunal yes to decide my appeal as early as possible with stipulated timeses so I have ra two point regarding preliminary objection it's requires to be allow right okay another another yes three judgment I have cited and I have narrated in my WR submission so I'm not taking more time okay it is on relation to that the court cannot add The Words which are not in the Statue and another judgments are there the all the other judgment is delivered by this court is are for incum looking to the section looking to The Cooperative societies act and looking to the flat ownership act the I have cited those Judgment of the Supreme Court also all those judgments are for including I'm I'm saying that in in those judgment judgment this different is not decided this is my sub okay the suit which is filed by the board of nominees huh is only for the purpose of getting four BK flat he has not challenged the development hode page 140 the finding of board of nominees one of the my Lord page 139 13 number six and honorable Cod this this judgment is before the division appeal before tribunal there is no stay granted my Lord question is my Lord now he says I am enti of for B FL suppose entire appeal is allowed tribunal then he get four bhk flate but he cannot stall the entire development today say 2020 these are this F round before this cour this cour they came before this cour faiv application I they fil they lost LP they lost the code director decide Board of

Lord we are recurring everyday expenses he's only not vacating then we are only vacating Everyday expenses suppose my tribunal decides then only he will get only entire four bhk only my he's not otherwise going to set aside the scheme therefore my Lord now L has taken number of I don't want to site because Lord taken a number of view in development considering Gujarat copy act redevelopment act redevelop the government has provided the mechanism for redevelopment of act it does not change the coper structure it does not change the rights also my Lord they may remain member but it is his contention that everything all the earlier judgments are for in now for he has to has to go for division divion confirm the lordship you my Lord that is therefore now cannot be taken by him my Lord he has to carry the matter the Supreme Court M therefore no no but there is a point which is taken yes find out my therefore what is his submission that Cooperative is classified in section 12 there is no classification in flat ownership m Housing Society only bylaw is registered to flat but why is that comparison I don't understand it not this a Cooper 61 but Redevelopment has been provided in the flat ownership act by government SE 41A so that those flight or 30 years old flight they can go Redevelopment and members will get new flight man and additional carpet area therefore there by Lots by passing the order the courts are not affecting the rights of members and 1961 act nor code is change structure of SC Society it as it is my Lord true the rights are not changed they get new flat my Lord everything they get and this is the M and M provided by government so that the person who cannot afford to have a new flat or renovate the flat by these way they get new that is and that is L one more Judgment of your lot yesterday I was reading has taken all this contention taken care of it par 11 par 17 1822 M that is all taken care of M paragraphs par 11 is 41A yes how we have considered

Cooperative Society yes yes wherein they are registered Cooperative soci yes yes yes Kamar you are also yes yeset that section 41 A is not withstanding anything in that yes therefore all every therefore not withstanding not missing anything my Lord that is why we consider this yes yes L section starting is not missing anything contained in this act any work in L to Redevelopment of a

fall or in any way dangerous to any person occupying restoring to passing by such structure or any other structure or place in the neighborhood thereof so L has and that is on lordship judgment par 11 Mal then honorable Court may have par 17 and 18 M yes yes yes it is also opposite so and so so and so having extensive LP judment Mal correct we have relied on the yes ratio laid down by honorable and Par 18 second LPA judgment Mal the contention of my the there is no provision gujatat foring sum so and so like provision contain housing so and so so and so so and that court is over the court has held that it is not an eviction in terms of transer yes it is not eviction it is temporary shifting yes from one place to other and after comple get facility a new new construction and 22 yes in light of the for the ratio has refer above is number 7 8 15 16 32 are the member society and lose their IND right to and dec of society for an accept through the the petition is compliant of the condition of section 41 of act in the facts of pres case the buildings are constructed in the year 85 this building is 1960 our building is 74 ining more than for 30 years or 36 the structure engine report so and so so and so and there is a consent of more than 7 98% has given consent only 99 1% left out Mal the OB chra chra Lear appear respond that Society has failed to follow process in has been SED without following process of law that is why I asked you to transpose yes that suppose if we find something yes yes and then immediately I accepted the honorable Court suggestion then honorable Court

Redevelopment is accepted conscent by more than 75% so this is my contention by the court in this judgment referred my then honorable Court par 22.3 this court has also con effect the while civil Su bearing number so and so filed by the number 12 and the another civil being in by is pending before the compu court is independent proceeding initiated by respond against the society for which the relment in the opin of this code cannot be stall in line in line with the ratio Ben I followed that ratio because the honorable division bench held that it can't and for the prayers that have prayed
