IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY
SANDEEP V.MARNE
Abdul Aziz Bharmar – Appellant
Versus
Vinod Anand – Respondent
JUDGMENT :
SANDEEP V. MARNE, J.
1. The Petition raises an interesting issue of Plaintiff’s right to claim ownership in flats constructed on non-suit land owned by a third party by use of TDR generated from the suit land, in which Plaintiff claims ownership.

A developer cannot claim benefits under new regulations without fulfilling the necessary conditions stipulated, and a writ cannot be issued to establish a non-crystallized legal right.
Point of Law : Right to property although is no longer a Fundamental Right after 42nd Amendment to the Constitution, it is constitutionally secured.
