( 1 ) BOTH these appeals under the Land Acquisition Act. in which parties are the same may be disposed of by one order. The only point for consideration is the amount payable as compensation. The properties are buildings situated in Mysore near sayyaji Rao Road at the extremity of Lansdowne Buildings. One case relates to those numbered by the Municipality as 77 to 83 and the other to what bore the number 83/1. The claim regarding the latter for increasing the amount paid by the lower Court may be first dealt with. This is said to have been a residential building facing a lane behind a row of shops. The structure was old, its doors and windows were in a decayed condition and at the time of acquisition was not in occupation of any one but used as a godown. The lower court has accepted the value of this at es. 925 but increased the value of the ground from Es. 2 to es. 10 per square yard. This appears to be fair and appellant's counsel has not pointed out anything to hold it otherwise. E. A. No. 142 of 51-52 is therefore dismissed with costs.
