Dear Client,
In the case of land acquisition by NHAI, you can object to the compensation given earlier by making a plea to the Arbitrator (who is generally the District Collector) as per Section 3G(5) of the National Highways Act, 1956. Although land records are significant, when it comes to the valuation of land, Indian courts pay attention to the actual user of the land, as per the RFCTLARR Act, 2013. To get the compensation based on the market rates, even without a land conversion order, you will have to provide strong supporting documents that prove that your fuel outlet has been operational since 2005. Such supporting documents include PESO explosives licenses, agreements with oil companies for dealership, local trade licenses, and commercial tax receipts. It is advisable to consult a land acquisition lawyer for formal representation in court. I hope this answer helps. If you have any further query kindly do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you
First of all, submit an application to the District Magistrate of that area, after that if no action is taken then UApply for compensation in the court of the same District Magistrate and if even then it does not come, then you can file a petition in the High Court by taking a verified copy of all the applications.
