Competent Authority Cannot Decide A Disputed RG Land Share Through Corrigendum: Bombay HC

Bombay High Court ruled a competent authority cannot decide disputed RG land share via corrigendum, as it exceeds limited power to correct clerical errors.

Justice Sandeep Marne set aside the January 12, 2026, order of the District Deputy Registrar and Competent Authority that modified Devendra Co-operative Housing Society Ltd.'s deemed conveyance to specify 463.38 sq m RG share.

The dispute between Shree Rasraj Heights Co-operative Housing Society Ltd. and Devendra CHSL over proportionate RG share arose from differing bases: plot area vs. built-up area.

The court held that determining exact proportionate RG share involves adjudication of disputed facts, which cannot be done through a corrigendum after functus officio.
