Court Fees Act – Market Value Does Not Become Decisive Of Valuation Merely Because Litigation Involves Immovable Property
Case: Bharat Bhushan Gupta v. Pratap Narain Verma And Anr.
Corum: Justices Dinesh Maheshwari and Vikram Nath
Case No.: Civil Appeal No. 4577 of 2022
Court Observation: “…market value of the suit property was around Rs.1.8 crores at the time of the filing of the suit. It is apparent thus, that the valuation of the suit for the purpose of Court Fees and jurisdiction at Rs.250 for each of the reliefs of injunction is wholly arbitrary.”
