Bombay City (Inami and Special Tenures) Abolition and Maharashtra Land Revenue Code (Amendment) Act, 1969, (Maharashtra) Section 17

Title: Amount of Compensation to Be Payable in Transferable Bonds

State: Maharashtra

Year: 1969

The amount of compensation payable under the provisions of this Act shall be payable in transferable bonds carrying interest at the rate of four per cent. per annum from the date of the issue of such bonds, and shall be repayable during a period of twenty years from the date of the issue of such bonds by equated annual installments of principal and interest. The bonds shall be of such denominations and shall be in such forms as may be prescribed. NOTES Under the existing section 17 of the Bombay City (Inami and Special Tenures) Abolition and Maharashtra Land Revenue Code (Amendment) Act, 1969 the amount of compensation is payable in transferable bonds repayable by twenty equated annual installments of principal and interest. However, since the number of claims for such compensation are very few and the amount of compensation to be paid is not very large, it is considered expedient to amend section 17 of the said Act suitably to provide that the amount of compensation shall be paid in cash and either in lump sum or in equal installments not exceeding twenty.- Statement of Objects and Reasons.
