Reasonable Time for Final Notification - The KIAD Act mandates that the final notification for land acquisition should be issued within a reasonable period after the preliminary notification, typically within one year, as per the legislative intent and judicial interpretations. Failure to do so results in lapsing of proceedings. Several sources emphasize that delays beyond this period lead to the acquisition lapsing unless extended by court orders or stay SMT.

Lapse of Acquisition Proceedings Due to Delay - Courts have consistently held that inordinate delays or failure to issue the final notification within the prescribed timeframe causes the acquisition process to lapse, rendering proceedings null and void. For instance, delays exceeding one to two years, without valid extension, lead to the proceedings lapsing, as seen in multiple judgments SMT.

Legal Framework and Time Limits - The Land Acquisition Act, including the KIAD Act, prescribes specific timeframes for issuing final notifications—generally within one year from the preliminary notification. If these are not adhered to, the acquisition process is deemed to have failed, unless courts extend the period based on exceptional circumstances Chaluve Gowda alias Chikkonu VS State of Karnataka - Karnataka, K.

Judicial View on Delay and Lapsing - Courts have underscored that the exercise of power must be within a reasonable period, and delays beyond this are unjustifiable, leading to lapse of proceedings. The courts have also noted that proceedings are considered lapsed if the final notification is not issued within the stipulated period, typically one year, and this lapse cannot be remedied retrospectively SMT.

Implications of No Final Notification - The absence of a final notification results in the nullification of the entire acquisition process, as the proceedings are considered incomplete and invalid. This is reinforced by judicial rulings which hold that the acquisition lapses if the final notification is not issued timely, unless extended by proper orders SMT.

Analysis and Conclusion:
The consensus across the sources is that the KIAD Act requires the final notification to be issued within a reasonable time, generally one year, after the preliminary notification. Delay beyond this period leads to the lapse of land acquisition proceedings. Courts have consistently held that inordinate delays violate the principles of reasonable exercise of power and procedural fairness, resulting in the nullification of acquisition processes. Therefore, to ensure validity, authorities must issue the final notification within the prescribed timeframe, failing which the proceedings automatically lapse SMT.
