Originates from impugned judgment dated 30‑04‑2026 in WRITC No. 27397/2024 of Allahabad High Court.
Order issued by Supreme Court of India on 10‑06‑2026.
Dispute concerns mutation of property title issued on 10‑05‑2023 under SARFAESI Act.

Petitioner: Himri Estate Private Limited.
Respondents: State of Uttar Pradesh & Anr.; Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) as the administrative authority.
Previous Forum: High Court of Judicature at Allahabad.
Supreme Court Bench: Justice Prashant Kumar Mishra, Justice Atul S. Chandurkar.

Himri Estate purchased the subject property in a SARFAESI auction; sale certificate issued on 10‑05‑2023.
Petition for mutation of title pending before GDA; High Court interim order on 18‑02‑2025 indicated no hindrance to mutation.
GDA refused to mutate the title, causing petitioner loss of statutory clearances and permissions.
The writ petition before the High Court has been listed 34 times without final disposal.

Supreme Court, after perusing the petition papers, observed that mutation should not be withheld pending the final High Court decision.
Recognised the petitioner’s loss due to GDA’s refusal and the prolonged pendency.

The Court directs GDA to mutate the petitioner’s name on the subject property within six weeks of receipt of the order.
The direction is subject to the final outcome of the writ petition before the High Court.
All pending applications, if any, are to stand disposed of.

GDA must complete the mutation process within the stipulated six‑week period.
Parties will be heard before the High Court for any final decision on the writ petition.
