Supreme Court Orders L&T and A.M. Naik to Vacate Pali Hill Bungalow

The Supreme Court of India dismissed Larsen & Toubro's (L&T) plea, directing the company and former chairman A.M. Naik to vacate a nearly one-acre bungalow at Pali Hill, Bandra. The property, leased from the Kothari family and others since the 1940s, saw eviction proceedings initiated in 2001 after lease termination. L&T's claim of co-ownership by acquiring minority shares during litigation was rejected by the Bombay High Court and upheld by the Supreme Court, which ordered the property be handed over to the original co-owners.
