Clay, (1914) 3 KB 466: (1914-1915) All ER Rep 882 (888), where the Court of Appeal had to consider the scope of the expression 'open market' occurring in s. 25(1) of the Finance Act, 1910 (10 Edw 7, c 8): The market is to be the open market, as distinguished from an offer to a limited class only, such as the members of the family.

Any addition to the value of the land to the owner whose land is compulsorily acquired which addition is the result of such factors as are unrelated to the open market cannot be regarded as a part of the market value, Union of India v. Shri Ram Mehar, AIR 1973 SC 305: (1973) 2 SCR 720: (1973) 1 SCC 109.Market value means the price that a willing purchaser would pay to a willing seller for the property having due regard to its existing condition with all its existing advantages and its potential possibilities when laid out in the most advantageous manner excluding any advantages due to the carrying out of the scheme for which the property is compulsory acquired, Thakur Kanta Prasad Singh v.

Jensen, 458 NW 2d 391 (1990).This term is generally applied to the equivalent in money of any kind of property. Thus for the payment of estate duty, a valuation of property of all kinds has to be made. Perhaps the most important and the most difficult valuation is that of land. This has almost invariably to be undertaken whenever land is compulsorily acquired. The difficulties that surround this question were fully considered in the case of Re Lucas and Chesterfield Gas and Water Board, (1909) 1 KB 16, in which Lord Justice Moulton in the course of his judgment said (at p. 29):-'The principles upon which compensation is assessed when land is taken under compulsory powers are well-settled. The owner receives for the lands he gives up their equivalent-that is, that which they are worth to him in m...
