It approached the respondent to grant licence for erection of unipole hording on his land. Both of them, agreed for terms of licence, and through agreement, dated 11.03.2008, the consideration was agreed to be Rs.19 lakhs per annum payable in monthly instalments, after deducting the income tax at source. Enhancement thereof is provided at 5%, per annum.
