Issues Involved:
1. Modification of a court order regarding possession of a property and payment of interest. 2. Clarification on the entitlement to receive possession without paying dues. 3. Claim of interest on consideration paid and responsibility for delay in possession. Analysis: 1. The judgment addresses the modification of a court order related to possession of a property and payment of interest. Respondents sought modifications to the order passed earlier, which required payment of the balance consideration for handing over possession. The court considered the background facts of the case, including previous legal challenges and decisions related to the property in question. The Supreme Court had upheld the abrogation of the purchase order due to non-compliance with statutory provisions, leading to the property reverting to the vendor. The appropriate authority was directed to issue a declaration under section 269UH(2) of the Act and deliver possession to the vendor within a specified timeline. 2. The judgment clarifies the entitlement to receive possession without paying dues. The vendor sought clarification that the order did not entitle the vendees to receive possession without settling their dues. The court clarified that once the order of pre-emptive purchase was abrogated, the vendor's rights under the agreement to sell would prevail without any impediment. It was specified that the vendor could not charge interest on the balance sale consideration received during the legal proceedings. 3. The issue of claiming interest on consideration paid and responsibility for the delay in possession was also addressed. The appropriate authority sought interest on the amount paid to the vendor for the period it remained unpaid. The court, after considering the equities of the matter, concluded that neither the appropriate authority, the vendor, nor the vendees could be held solely responsible. It was determined that the vendees were within their rights to challenge the purchase order, and equity did not warrant them to pay interest. The judgment emphasized that the rights and liabilities of the parties would be governed by the original agreement to sell, once the purchase order was abrogated. In conclusion, the judgment provided a detailed analysis of the issues raised by the parties, clarified the legal implications of the previous court orders, and balanced the interests of all parties involved in the dispute over possession and payment of interest related to the property in question.
