A. As per the new Land Acquisition Act, to provide just and fair compensation to those whose land is taken away for constructing roads, buildings or factories etc.The Act, meant for bringing transparency to the process of acquisition of land, provides for generous compensation and rehabilitation of those affected by the takeover.

B. Generally, The Special Land Acquisition officer or Collector would be fixed compensation as per the market value. Hence, If you are not satisfied regarding compensation, you can approach the court to get more compensation against the decision of the land acquisition officer or collector.

C. Additionally, The Collector cannot pass an award unless entered into agreement with Land Owner. Hence In the 2004 case, the Supreme Court had held that when the award is made by the collector, the proceedings before him stand terminated as soon as the award is made. The provision of entering into an agreement is attracted only if the collector has not passed the award and the proceedings before him were still subsisting, the apex court had held.

Hi,

If you feel your compensation is not as per the expectation, please approach a court and file a suit, the calculation varies depending on the assessment by the officers in the revenue department concerned according to the existing rules. it is certainly not on the double amount market rate and the 100 % solatium is not guaranteed, hence it is always better to dispute the amount awarded by the revenue officer/collector and approach the court . no one will be able to tell you the exact amount as always the Office concerned uses its discretion in deciding the amount depending on different parameters.

Hello,

The Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013 is an Act of Indian Parliament that regulates land acquisition and provides laid down rules for granting compensation, rehabilitation and resettlement to the affected persons in India. The Act has provisions to provide fair compensation to those whose land is taken away, brings transparency to the process of acquisition of land to set up factories or buildings, infrastructural projects and assures rehabilitation of those affected. The Act establishes regulations for land acquisition as a part of India's massive industrialisation drive driven by public-private partnership.

The Act as amended in 2013 provides:The market value would be multiplied by a factor of, at least one to two times the market value for land acquired in rural areas and at least one times the market value for land acquired in urban areas. The Act stipulates that the minimum compensation to be a multiple of the total of above ascertained market value, value to assets attached to the property, plus a solatium equal to 100 percent of the market value of the property including value of assets.
