Nature of Litigation

Remedy Sought

Interim injunctions to restrain Defendants No.4 and 5 from creating third party rights over suit land and to stay the General Body Resolution of the Society dated 24-12-2011.

Filing Reason

Plaintiffs claim exclusive entitlement to allotment of land based on a 1981 agreement for sale and a 2008 Supreme Court order, alleging that the society's resolution and potential third-party transactions would prejudice their rights.

Judgment Excerpts

This dispute pertains to a substantial tract of land admeasuring 94,861.30 sq.mts., roughly 23 acres, at Village Versova, Taluka Andheri in the Mumbai Suburban District. Situated as it is in a prime area in Mumbai’s suburbs, the property is undoubtedly of considerable value. The Plaintiffs claim to be exclusively entitled to an allotment of this land along with Defendants Nos. 61 and 62. 1 This claim is made on the basis that the ten Plaintiffs and Defendants Nos. 61 and 62 are all members of the Apna Ghar Cooperative Housing Society Limited, the 5th Defendant (“ the Society ”), of which the 1st Plaintiff, Ashok Dattatraya Kulkarni (“ Kulkarni ”), is said to be the Chief Promoter, a position he says he has held since the very beginning. The allotment is claimed on the basis of an agreement for sale of 1981 followed by an order of the Supreme Court in 2008. The motion seeks injunctive reliefs restraining the Defendant No. 4, a partnership firm of builders and developers, one Samartha Development Corporation (“ SDC ”) and Defendant No. 5, the Society, from creating any third party rights in respect of this land. A stay is sought of a resolution dated 24th December 2011 passed by the General Body of the Society at a Special General Body Meeting.
