@JUDGMENTTAG-ORDER

S.P. Goyal, J.@mdashThe award passed under the Requisitioning and Acquisition of Immoveable Property, Act, 1952, is appealable as such u/s

11 of the Act. The Court fee payable on such appeal is Rs. 5.25. As held by a Division Bench of this Court in Major Trilok Nath Bhargava and

another v. Smt. Jaswant Kaur and Another (1975) 77 P.L.R. 422, the cross objections have to bear the same court fee as would have been

payable if an appeal would have been filed instead of the cross-objections. The court fee payable, therefore, on the cross-objections would be

only Rs. 5.25 and the applicant is entitled to refund of the remaining court fee paid in excess of the said amount. Necessary certificate, therefore,

may be issued to the applicant for the refund of the amount of the excess court fee. In view of this order, Civil Misc. No. 3604-CII of 1978 has

become infructuous and is accordingly dismissed.
