Shri Bhupinder Singh Anand, one of the partner of this firm is present before the Committee during the hearing. It is observed that the applicant has applied for conversion from lease hold to free hold and has deposited an amount of Rs.12,24,650/- as conversion charges, however, his case for conversion could not be considered due to ongoing fresh construction at the said premises. After obtaining the approval of Hon’ble L.G., the department has informed the applicant that his conversion application could not be considered at present and he may apply afresh after construction on the plot and start manufacturing activities. Now, the applicant has recommended for refund of conversion charges and while processing the case, it was observed that there is a transfer of share from grand father to grand son which did not fall in the definition of family. However, the applicant states that the shares of Shri Rattan Singh Anand were not transferred directly to his grand son namely Shri Gurmeet Singh Anand and Shri Kanwar Deep Singh Anand. There was a family settlement on 31st March, 1994 and as per this settlement, the share of Shri Rattan Singh Anand were devolved upon Shri Bhupinder Singh Anand and subsequently, Shri Bhupinder Singh Anand has transferred his shares to his son. Therefore, the changes are within family and he should be allowed refund of conversion charges paid by him. The ILMAC, after considering the issue, recommends to allow refund of conversion charges paid by the applicant after ensuring that the changes/transfer in shares are within family as per L.M.G. 2.

Shri Hari Krishan Gupta has expired on 9th May, 2005. However, there is a undated letter received in the Narela Allotment Cell, wherein a request has been made to issue NOC for construction on the plot. The present purchaser Shri Jaspal Singh, in this regard states that this letter is someone mischief as Shri Hari Krishan Gupta has already expired and there is no question of his applying for NOC. He further states that he is a legal occupier of the plot in question other then the GPA and agreement to sell. Apart from the GPA and Agreement to Sell, Shri Jaspal Singh is in possession of the `WILL’ executed by Shri Hari Krishan Gupta in favour of Shri Suresh Kumar Goyal and Shri Laxman Dass Goyal and registered with sub-registrar on 19.5.1999 and another `WILL’ executed by Suresh Kumar Goyal and Shri Laxman Dass Goyal in favour of Jaspal Singh duly registered on 15.10.1999.

The present applicant has not deposited any amount under the impression that the conversion charges paid by the first applicant M/S Navjeevan Associates Pvt.

The format of the lease deed was approved by the Hon’ble L.G. on 6th March, 2009. There are two issues which are to be finalized (i) rate of interest in case of default in payment of lease rent. (ii) Lease rent to be charged on what amount. The ILMAC discussed this issue and decide to recommend that as per order dated 31st Jan., 2008 which clearly stipul ates as under:- “18% simple interest shall be charged on belated payment except in those cases where specific rate of interest has been prescribed in the lease/rent agreement”. This was approved by the Lessor i.e. Hon’ble L.G.. Accordingly, the ILMAC is of the considered view that rate of inte4rest should be charged @ 18% simple where there is a delay in payment of lease rent/ground rent. As regards lease rent is to be fixed, as decided in past in hire purchase case of sheds of Okhla Industrial Estate, actual land cost was the consideration for charging lease rent @ 2.5% of the premium of the value of the plot. Accordingly, in this case also lease rent is to be charged on proportionate land cost of individual flat. As regard restoration and 50% unearned increase, these are futurestic query of accounts branch, which is to be decided under Land Management Guidelines and depending upon the decision under Land Management Guidelines and will be applicant in the relevant cases.

M/s Galtex Industries – The case of M/s Galtex Industries, Application No. 13608 for allotment of industrial plot under relocation scheme was considered by ILMAC. It was informed to the ILMAC that the case of the applicant was rejected on the ground that it is partly covered in H(a) category. The applicant has filed a writ petition in the Hon’ble High Court which has remanded the matter to this Department for re-examining the claim of the petitioner. Accordingly, the appellant had appeared before the then Appeal Committee on 20.10.09 and as per the minutes of the then Appeal Committee dated 13.11.09 his case has not been allowed for allotment of industrial plot considering the existing Relocation policy of not allotting the plot to the unit existing in conforming area as the location of unit in Swaran Park, Udyog Nagar which area is now notified for re-development plan. The applicant met the Commissioner of Industries and accordingly the matter was placed before ILMAC (Appeal Committee) on 15.2.10. Shri Dharam Chand, Partner of the above said unit was also present. He has countered the claim of the department regarding his activity falling in H(a) category on the grounds that he was manufacturing rubber/canvas footwear only and is not carrying any manufacturing activities as on today because his rented premises at Swaran Park, Udyog Nagar was sealed in the year 2000, after which he has vacated the premises and sold the machinery.

Plot No. 131, Narela Industrial Area was taken up in the ILMAC. The applicant and petitioner in the High Court, Mr. Sanjiv Bhatia was also present in the meeting. The matter has been examined and the recommendations of the concerned branch has been considered in this case. The present applicant intimated the DSIIDC and requested for transfer of plot in his name on 25.6.2001. However, a demand letter with regard to the charges payable by the applicant for the Change of Constitution could not be intimated by the Corporation to him at that time because of the dispute raised by the original allottee, Mr. M.B.S. Jain. Now plot is to be transferred in the name of Shri Sanjiv Bhatia in compliance to the orders of Hon’ble high Court of January,2008 and January,2010. The question at this stage is that which date should be taken for calculating the UEI charges. In this case the plot which was allotted in 1992 was first time sold on 18.4.94 and second time on 7.8.1996. The present owner/purchaser, Shri Sanjiv Bhatia acquired it on 3 rd sale on 12.6.2001. After discussion of the matter, the ILMAC is of the view that the charges may be calculated for all the sales/transactions as per the respective date/year of execution of the sale, i.e. April,1994, August,1996 and June,2001 as per provision of Land Management Guidelines. Further, regularization charges for late intimation will be applicable as per clause 2(iii) with of Land Management Guidelines with regard to first and second sale, till June,2001 i.e. when the present applicant intimated the transaction. Subject to the payment of the UEI charges and any other dues as payable in accordance with policy, the branch concerned may process the case for change of constitution in terms of the High Court order today itself. Further, the ILMAC recommends that deadline set by the direction of the Hon’ble High Court be adhered to in order to avoid any contempt. Accordingly, the concerned branch should take necessary action immediately. 6. Plot No. 562, Narela Industrial Area was taken up by the ILMAC. Shri Sunil Charla on behalf of the applicant firm, M/s Ambitious Pen Co. was present. ILMAC has perused the records of the case and heard Shri Sunil Charla.

Charla, the father of Shri Sunil Charla, has been transferred by him in the name of Mrs. Suraksha Charla, Wife of Shri Sunil Charla through a probated will, as according to the Will, the share of Shri K.K. Charla in M/s Stic Pens Ltd. and its sister concern will devolve upon his daughter-in-law, Ms. Suraksha Charla, w/o Shri Sunil Charla. The applicant has submitted a certificate from his Chattered Accountant stating that M/s Ambitious Pen Co. is a sister concern of M/s Stic Pens Ltd. and that there is no outsider having any interest in any matter of M/s Ambitious Pen Co. The applicant has also informed the shareholding of Stic Pens Ltd. Wherein the said company is entirely owned by Shri Sunil Charla, his wife and their children. It is further observed that Mrs. Suraksha Charla has become partner in M/s Ambitious Pen Co. along with Mr. Sunil Charla vide partnership deed executed on 31/7/2002. Further, the Narela Branch has already taken UEI charges for the transfer of 25% share of Shri K.K. Charla to Ms. Suraksha Charla. In view of the above facts, ILMAC is of the view that the branch should effect the change of constitution in favour of Shri Sunil Charla and his wife Smt. Suraksha Charla with the approval of the competent authority as per the Land Management Guidelines and also execute the lease deed, handover the possession and issue NOC for construction as the matter has already very much delayed. An Indemnity Bond should be taken from the firm clarifying the shareholding details of M/s Stic Pens Ltd. and M/s Ambitious Pen Co. and indemnifying the department against any claims/damages in future. 7. The case of M/s Varun India Products, Application No. 31866 for allotment of industrial plot under Relocation scheme was considered by the ILMAC (Appeal Committee) on the basis of recommendations of the Sub-Committee vide its report dated 3.2.10. On the basis of recommendations of the Sub-Committee, ILMAC(Appeal Committee) recommends that the case of M/s Varun India Products may be considered for allotment of industrial plot under Relocation Scheme for an area as per entitlement. Mr. Harish Uppal was also present and informed the ILMAC(Appeal Committee) that he has applied for 100 Sq.mtrs plot only. ILMAC observed that in Column-7 of the application form the applicant has mentioned the requirement of the plot as 100 sq.mtr size and because as per guidelines the minimum area to be allotted is 100 sq.mtr., ILMAC recommends accordingly. 8. Plot No. 201, FIE Patparganj- The case of Plot No. 201for conversion from lease hold to free hold was considered by the ILMAC on the recommendations of concerned branch. The applicant is the subsequent purchaser through chain of GPA and Agreement to Sell which is reported to be complete. Nothing adverse has been reported by the Estate Manager. Accordingly, ILMAC recommends to allow conversion from lease hold to freehold in favour of agreement to sell holder as per recommendations of concerned branch, subject to payment of outstanding dues, if any , as per guidelines. 9. The case of Plot No. M-21, Badli Industrial Estate was considered by the ILMAC in continuation of its earlier recommendations in its meeting held on 1.2.2010 when it was advised to the concerned branch to go through the case and place in the next meeting. The concerned branch has examined the facts of the case and has recommended the same for conversion from lease hold to freehold in respect of the plot in favour of Shri Jagdish Rai in accordance with the opinion of the Law Department and subject to final decision of the Hon’ble High Court in CS(OS)No.505/2007. ILMAC accordingly recommends to allow conversion from leasehold to freehold in favour of the original allottee, subject to furnishing of Indemnity Bond with respect to loss/damage/claim, if any, as arising after final decision of the Hon’ble High Court in CS(OS)NO.505/2007 and payment of outstanding dues, if any, as per guidelines. 10. The case of S-51, Okhla Industrial Area, Phase-II was taken up by the ILMAC in which it was observed that there is no clear recommendation from the concerned branch. It is, therefore, a self contained note along with specific recommendations may be put up in the next ILMAC, i.e. on 22.2.10. 11. Application No. 50955 of Relocation Branch of DSIIDC was placed before ILMAC regarding change of constitution in the company. It is surprising to note that initially the two original directors, Shri V.K. Khanna and Shri Anil Khanna were there. It is observed that the Relocation Branch of DSIIDC has brought some confusion that there is a change of Directorship and accordingly the case was processed from 2004 onwards and ultimately it was found that there is no change of any director and accordingly there is no question of undertaking any change of constitution. In view of this observation the ILMAC strongly feel that in-charges of various land branch shall examine the issue properly and the issues be placed before the ILMAC in a proper perspective rather than placing the issue out of no issue. 12. The case of Plot No. 15, FIE Patparganj for consideration of appeal for restoration of lease deed was considered as per details provided by concerned branch. Since the matter of restoration is the jurisdiction of Hon’ble L.G., ILMAC is of the view that the matter may be placed before Hon’ble LG by the concerned branch giving all the facts of the case and as per direction of the Hon’ble High Court. 13. The case of M/s New Gandhi Optical Industries bearing application No.15527 was considered by ILMAC for change of constitution. Original allottee has expired and now his wife has requested for mutation in her favour as Proprietor of the firm. On the basis of documents submitted by the party the Committee recommends deletion of name of Late Shri Devender Singh and allows induction of his wife Smt.

A meeting of the Industrial Land Management Advisory Committee (ILMAC) was convened on 22.02.2010 at 11.30 A.M. which was attended by the following members:- 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Sh. A.R. Talwade, JCI – Chairman Sh. Vishva Mohan, GM, DSIIDC Sh. M.S. Garg, DCI – Member- Convener Sh. Pradeep Gupta, DCI - Member Sh. S.K. Singh, DCI – Member Sh. M.K. Sharma, F.O. – Member Sh Sh. V.K. Garg, Chief Manager, DSIIDC – Member The cases discussed were as under:1. The lease of plot No.S-51, Phase-II Okhla Industrial Area was determined vide order dated 17 March, 1992. The plot was allotted to Shri Vishnu Kumar. The allottee preferred an appeal before the lessor in the year 1992 itself for restoration of lease. Finally Hon’ble L.G. restored the lease in favour of the allottee vide order dated 1 st August, 1996 subject to payment of restoration charges, payment against authorized subletting etc. to the tune of Rs.6,94,846/-. The allottee did not pay the amount. On dated 28th Dec., 2001, the allottee’s wife Smt. Sunita K. Nigam informed the department that the allottee expired on 9th December, 2001 and the property is required to be mutated in favour of his legal heir (C-304 on file). One Shri Shashi Prakash Chopra on dated 5.6.2002 informed the department that he has purchased the property vide registered power of attorney dated 2nd August, 2001 and agreement to sell also of the same date (C-310 on file). The department wrote a letter to the allottee’s wife to pay the arrears. Shri Shashi Prakash Chopra informed the department that he is also holding registered `WILL’ from the allottee in his favour concerning to the property in question. The department allowed to process the case of transfer in favour of the applicant/buyer as on record at page N/124 & N/145. The branch was of the considered view to seek letter of administration from the competent court in favour of the purchaser as there was claim and counter claim once by wife of the allottee. The issue was placed before the ILMAC and the Committee is of the considered view that the wife of the allottee did not pay the amount towards the restoration and other arrears inspite of informing her vide office letter dated 14.11.2003. Merely filing a letter several years earlier cannot be concluded as a dispute or counterclaim. Moreover, the `WILL’ is also in favour of the purchaser and as per policy circular dated 5.11.2007, the mutation is required to be allowed first subject to the completion of necessary formalities i.e. registered Indemnity Bond, Affidavit etc from Shashi Prakash Chopra. The Committee recommends to allow mutation in favour of Shri Shashi Prakash Chopra in whose favour the `WILL’ was executed (duly registered) by the allottee Shri Vishnu Kumar. 2. Shed No.E-113, Phase-III Okhla Industrial Estate. Smt Abida Khatoon along with Smt. Veena Anand and Shri Mohinder pal Singh are present before the ILMAC. Vide minutes of the meeting dated 25.1.2010, ILMAC desired to call Smt. Abida Khatoon who has executed GPA in favour Shri Mohinder Pal Singh and Shri Joginder Pal singh Anand whereas mutation of the property after the death of the allottee was not made on record in favour of Smt. Abida Khatoon as no documents were submitted regarding here succeeding the property. Smt. Abide Khatoon obtained letter of administration in her favour in probate case No.111/2007 Misc. No.110/2008 in the court of Shri Ashwani Sarpal, Additional District Judge, Tis Hazari. The ILMAC is of the considered view to recommend to allow mutation in favour of Smt. Abida Khatoon thereafter process the case of free hold on the basis of GPA and agreement to sell as submitted by the applicant. Smt. Abida Khatoon who is present before the ILMAC stated that she has no objection to further process the case for free hold in favour of the applicant. 3. The case of plot No.63, Phase-II, Badli Industrial Estate for conversion from lease hold to free hold was considered as per the recommendation of the concerned branch. Shri Suchivart Gupta, the applicant appeared before the ILMAC. It was observed that the construction is reported to the within time as per house tax assessment dated 1.4.1987. Nothing adverse has been reported by the Estate Manager. The GPA and agreement to sell, first agreement and agreement to sell dated 16.2.2004 are registered as per guidelines. Accordingly, ILMAC is recommended to allow conversion from lease hold to free hold subject to payment of outstanding dues, if any, as per guidelines. 4. Plot No.B-50, FFC Jhandewalan. On 21st December, 1998, the department communicated conditional restoration order in pursuance of amnesty granted by Hon’ble L.G. for restoration of allotment in favour of Shri Raj Kishore (the allottee) subject to payment of Rs.10,000/- security deposit and Rs.2,04,095/- towards arrear. The said letter was issued and sent through the respective Industrial Association of FFC Jhandewalan. Subsequent to this recovery notices were issued for recovery of arrears as the said amount of rent and interest was not paid. There was on going court case before the Additional District Judge, Tis Hazari in which the then Inspector of FFC Jhandewalan submitted a statement before the court as below:- “ It is submitted on behalf of the respondents that the suit accommodation in this case has been regularized in the name of the appellant and the letter of Regularization has already been sent to the appellants. I have no objection in case the appellant withdraws the appeal.” The then inspector did not clarify to the court that the regularization was subject to condition of payment of dues against the allottee and depositing of Rs.10,000/- security money. As a result of statement, the petition was allowed to be withdrawn as it become infructuous. Accordingly, the order was issued by the Ld. Additional District Judge vide dated 4.1.1999. Subsequent to this, the department proceeded further before the Estate Officer for eviction proceedings as the above stated amount was not received. Though it was not mentioned whether the conditional restoration order was conveyed to the allottee or not as it was sent through Association. The Estate Officer passed an eviction order on dated 25.9.2003 in which it was clearly mentioned before implementing the eviction order, clearance of Law Department is required to be obtained by the department and clearance should be obtained from the Hon’ble Court with reference to order dated 4.1.1999. the allottee filed suit against the eviction order vide suit No.PDA 61/08 and contempt of petition therein in the matter as to why the department has not implemented the court order dated 4.1.1999 which was on the basis of the statement given by the department that the issue related to regularization. Subsequent to this, the department issued a regularization letter dated 12.2.2010 indicating dues towards rental, interest amounting to Rs.4,04,870/- + utility charges Rs.63,750/-. The allottee was present before ILMAC and he agreed to pay all the dues. Subsequently he has taken a stand in the court that interest is not levyable. The said amount towards rent and interest, after adjusting the amount of Rs.1,82,200/-, recovered through DCO. This order was issued considering the earlier letter dated 21.12.1998 towards conditional restoration was not served by the department to the applicant and amnesty automatically stands extended. The matter came up before the Hon’ble District Judge on 16th Feb., 2010 in which he has clearly directed/ordered as below:- “It has been submitted by the learned Counsel for the petitioner that a letter has been issued regarding regularization/restoration of the premises, subject to payment of certain amount along with 13% interest from the year 1999. The statement for regularization was made and order was passed on 4.1.1999 by the court and therefore, it cannot be said that the petitioner was in default. Under these circumstances, the petitioner was not under any obligation to pay any interest, if he was ready and willing to pay the amount, whatever was payable by him at the time of passing of the order on 4.1.1999.” Going into the details and as per directions of the court, the ILMAC is of the considered view that the demand raised vide letter dated 21.12.1998 is to be adjusted against the payment received through DCO from time to time (letters issued to DCO on dated 5.2.1997 and 29.7.1999). The rent, after the letter dated 27.12.1998, whatever was due, was to be paid by the allottee well in time as the possession of the property was with the allottee and he was generating business on the premises since the date of allotment. Though obligation to pay the rent is on the part of the allottee but department do not accept any rent after cancellation, therefore, no interest is levyable on delayed payment of rent after 21.12.98 to till date. The amount paid by the allottee of Rs.1,82,200/- is to be adjusted against the demand of Rs.2,04,095/- and no further interest is required to be levied against the arrears out of adjustment of Rs.2,04,095. The rent is to be demand as on date which is arrear. 5. Shed No.101, Phase-II, Okhla Industrial Estate – M/s Mohindra Sports Works. The Estate Manager has reported on file that the allottee’s son found working in the same premises, though at no point of time the Estate Manager stated in past that what was the area is occupied by the allottee’s son within the allottee’s premises. Subsequent to this, the allottee expired on 20.5.1991 leaving `WILL”’ that after his death, the property will be equally shared by the three sons. On submission of relinquishment deed from two sons, the department has allowed mutation in favour of Shri Raghubir Singh, one of the son of the late allottee. The ILMAC is of the considered view that since the property remained all alone within the family and allottee and by virtue of `WILL’ the late allottee has given equal right to all his three sons, therefore, no subletting is levyable against the allottee or applicant Shri Raghubir Singh who has requested for free hold in his favour. Shri Raghubir Singh’s name is in the WILL who is one of the beneficiary and is son of the allottee. 6. The case of Shri O.P. Batra & Shri Rajiv Batra, ex-allottee of Flat D-183 & B-82, Flatted Factory Complex , Okhla was taken up by the Committee on 20 .10.2009 and discussed in detail. The brief facts of the case is two Flatted Factory Complex have been allotted to Shri O.P. Batra and his son Shri Rajiv Batra in the year 1982. Both the allottees have not paid any rent and also have not started any manufacturing activities hence department/competent authority cancelled the allotment of flats. Subsequently Estate Officer passed an eviction order in both the cases. Against this decision of the Department the ex-allottees filed a case against the department in the District Court and the District Court withheld the orders of the Estate Officer in respect of Shri O.P. Batra whereas in case of Shri Rajiv Batra the ADJ has ordered to uphold the order of the Estate Officer. Subsequently, in the case where ADJ desired in favour of the Department the ex-allottee i.e. Shri Rajiv Batra preferred an appeal in the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi whereas in case of Shri O.P. Batra the Department preferred an appeal in the High Court against the order of ADJ. Finally, the Hon’ble High Court vide its order dated 12.12.08 has remanded back the case to the Estate Officer as out of two cancelled flats the ex-allottees willing to surrender one of the flat. The Estate Officer after hearing the party passed an order dated 25.06.09 referring back the case to the Department to reconsider the allotment of one of the flat. Shri O.P. Batra also furnished false affidavit to the effect that none of his family members were offered allotment at FFC, Okhla. The matter was placed before the Committee and the Committee desired to call both the ex-allottees within 15 days. Both the ex-allottees should appear before the Committee with all the records available with them as well as missing file should also be reconstructed. As per the recommendations of the ILMAC, the matter was referred to Law Department to opine in the matter and in turn the Law Department asked to depute an officer for discussion/clarification in the matter. The Assistant Commissioner went to discuss the issue with Law Department on date 29.12.2009 (as per note at N/107) and as mentioned in his note, there is no specific legal query for examination and department should pass speaking order in the matter. The matter was again placed before the ILMAC today with the views of Law Department, as recorded by ACI, and the ILMAC is of the considered view that Lessor being Competent Authority, the matter should be placed before him by giving full facts and background of the case for decision on the matter. 7. The matter of M/s Jayanti Tools, Plot No.1050, Narela Industrial Complex was taken up by ILMAC regarding the change of constitution and execution of lease deed. Applicant Shri Neeraj Chopra, partner of the firm is also present before the ILMAC. The matter is pending for a very long period on the issue whether any UEI is payable on account of the change in constitution as the mother of the original partners was included in the firm as 33.34% partner on 1.4.2002 and subsequently retired from the firm on 25.5.2005 thereby restoring the firm to the original partners. ILMAC has perused the matter. In this case, the allotment of plot was made in July, 1990 in the name of partnership firm M/s Jyanti Tools having two brothers as partners, namely Shri Neeraj Chopra and Shri Pankaj Chopra, both sons of Shri Inder Mohan Chopra. Smt. Prakash Chopra w/o Shri Inder Mohan Chopra was included as 33.34% partner vide partnership deed dated 1.4.2002. Subsequently, Smt. Prakash Chopra retired from the firm vide dissolution deed dated 25.5.2005 leaving the firm with the original partners, who executed a separate partnership deed on the same day. The contention of Shri Neeraj Chopra is that his mother was included in the partnership in 2002 order to improve the Debt/Equity ratio of the firm as the firm had taken a loan from her. Subsequently, since she was old and did not want to continue, in accordance with her wishes, she retired in 2005. He contends that in DDA definition, mother is a part of family, therefore, no UEI should be charged. Matter has been deliberated. As per the Land Management guidelines applicable to the industrial estates of Industries department and DSIIDC, UEI charges are applicable for the change in constitution dated 1.4.2002 as per the rates prevalent in 2002-03. However, no UEI chargeable for second transaction dated 25.5.2005 wherein the share of the retiring partner has gone to her sons, as the transaction is within the family and defined in the Land Management Guidelines. Further, since the change of constitution was intimated by the applicant to the Corporation on 9.11.2004, regularization charges for delayed intimation as applicable from 1.4.2002 to 8.11.2004 in accordance with clause (iii) of LMG. Accordingly, the branch may collect the UEI charges and execute the lease deed with the approval of competent authority and subject to payment of any other dues. 8. Plot No. 249-A, Okhla Industrial Area, M/s Alok Electronics. The applicant has represented against the subletting and interest charged by the department @ 18% compound. The matter is sub-judice before the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi. Similar issue of interest rate are also pending in different sections of land branch. The ILMAC is of the view that Land Co-ordination branch will put up a proposal before C.I. in the light of the order dated 31.1.2008, which was duly approved by Hon’ble L.G. Whatever will be the outcome, it will be applicable in all similar cases. (M.S. Garg) DCI - Convenor No. CI/Admn./Misc./2009/ 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Copy to: 1. 2. 3. Dated Sh. A.R.

Shed No.101, Phase-III, Okhla Industrial Estate. Shri Raghubir Singh, Proprietor of the firm M/s Mohindra Sports Works is present before the Committee. His case is for conversion from lease hold to free hold. On last occasion the matter was placed before the ILMAC on dated 9.11.2009 and 22.2.2010 related to mutation in favour of Shri Raghubir Singh and on subletting issue respectively. Both the issues stands settled as recommended by the Committee. In this instant case, the unit is functional and has paid all the dues as well as the mutation has been allowed in favour of Shri Raghubir Singh, therefore, the Committee is of the view to recommend the case to allow conversion from lease hold to free hold in favour of Shri Raghubir Singh, Proprietor M/s Mohindra Sport Works subject to payment of outstanding dues, if any, and s per Land Management Guidelines. As regards encroachment, the EM reported that there is some raw material on Government land. The applicant states that the raw material is because of loading and unloading and the raw material was to be taken inside the premises. The Committee is of the view that since no encroachment on government land by way of construction (temporary/permanent) on government land or by way of fencing hence it can not be construed as encroachment on government land and free-hold is recommended to be allowed by the Committee. 4 Plot No.240, Phase-III, Okhla Indusgtrial Estate. The case was already considered in the ILMAC on 7.12.2009. Now, it has been considered in view of the clarification sought by the DCI (Okhla) whether applicant/applicants who is/are partners or Directors in a Company is/are carrying out different permitted manufacturing activities should be allowed for conversion or not. The issue has already deliberated upon in the ILMAC and as per conversion scheme; the plot should be used for industrial purpose. The Committee has already allowed conversion from lease hold to free hold. 5. The case of Plot No.57, Phase-II, Badli Industrial Estate for conversion from lease hold to free hold was considered by the Committee on the recommendation of the concerned branch. It was observed that there is an issue relating to payment of sub-letting charges along with penal interest @18% p.a. for the belated payment. In this connection, the then Commissioner of Industries has observed that: “how interest can be charged when no demand has been raised? There is a legal opinion available from Law Department (perhaps in file of Shed No.69 of O.I.E.). We have also received a fresh decision from Hon’ble L.G. regarding rate of interest which is now simple instead of compound. The calculation needs to be reworked in case interest is leviable.” in this regard From the perusal of the file, it is observed that no decision has been taken as yet by the concerned branch inspite of directions of the Commissioner of Industries. Now the administrative branch has pointed out that as per the circular dated 31.1.2008, it is specifically provided in para 2 that 18% simple interest shall be charged on all belated payments except in those cases where specific rate of interest has been prescribed in the lease/rent agreement. However, where compound interest has been charged, was not to be re-opened. The ILMAC has gone through the relevant notings of the file No.DDI(Land)/Policy/CI/97 from which the order dated 31.1.2008 was issued after due approval of Hon’ble L.G. “It has been pointed out by Pr. Secy. (Fin) in the meeting held on 27.7.2007 referred to above, FD agreed to the view that the issues involved are matters of policy decision for the administrative Department, rather than financial in nature. Besides, FD and Planning Department do not have the benefit of field level knowledge and the history of the policy/practices followed so far in such matters pertaining to land, therefore, administrative Department may move for a policy decision, if necessary, in consultation with Law Department. CS may kindly see for advice.” It was observed that the department has deliberated in detail to the said policy decision in consultation with various departments including finance/planning/land etc. and the matter is finally approved by the L.G. after taking all aspects into consideration. Accordingly, from the contents of the said file and directions of Hon’ble L.G. at page 55/N, ILMAC recommends that the said circular is applicable for levy of 18% simple interest on all belated payments including subletting charges except restoration charges where the rate of interest has been specifically provided in the order dated 31.1.2008 and except wherever the rate of interest is prescribed in the lease/rent agreement. 6.

Flat No.E-216, FFC Okhla. The case is regarding change in constitution in favour of Smt. Gurish Kaur.

Gurish Kaur subject to payment of composition charges and other dues, if any as per LMG.

This case was considered by ILMAC regarding chargeability of UEI on the share of married daughters in death cases, reference CMD’s note on the file. Change in Constitution was earlier approved at N/18 subject to payment of UEI charges on the share of married daughters. This case was discussed in ILMAC, since the properties in such cases goes to the legal heirs of deceased allottee, no UEI is chargeable as per LMG (ref. Sl. No.3(vi) of LMG). Same view was also taken in one of such cases of Narela Allotment Cell of Madan Lal Rastogi & Bimla Devi Rastogi, Plot No.806, Narela Industrial Complex and all such similar cases currently. Accordingly, ILMAC is of the view that no UEI charges be recovered, however, pre-revised payment, if paid, may not be refunded. 20. The case of plot No.20, Patparganj Industrial Estate was discussed in the ILMAC with regard to the matter of sub-letting charges and interest thereon. It is observed from the facts of the case that the applicant had filed application for conversion from lease hold to free hold on 31.3.2006. While processing the same it was observed that the conversion has been sought in favour of individual name i.e. Rajesh Khursija on the strength of agreement to sell where as the applicant has been running industrial unit in the name of a private limited company i.e. M/s Prakash Amusement Rides and Fun World Pvt. Ltd., which is a registered Co. with Rajesh Khursija as one of the Directors of the Company. As per the department’s guidelines, the same was treated to be subletdting and subletting charges were got calculated from accounts branch at page C/290. Accordingly, the demand was raised to the applicant for sum of Rs.11,27,209/- consisting of subletting Rs.4,57,709 and interest Rs.6,69,500/-. charges amounting to After repeated reminders, the applicant finally deposited the said amount on 4.12.2008 as per his letter at page C/310. Since there was a delay of approximately one year in payment of the demanded amount, the interest component for the said period was got calculated from accounts branch which was reported to be Rs.22,178/- at page N/87 by the accounts branch. Accordingly, demand was raised on 20.1.2010 by the department. The applicant has deposited the said amount on 27.1.2010. When the draft was sent for deposition in government account to the accounts branch, then it was realized by the accounts branch that the actual amount of interest was Rs.2,21,798/- as interest for the belated payment made on 4.12.2008 instead of Rs.22,178/-. It was further pointed out by the accounts branch that due to inadvertent error, the amount of subletting charges was also calculated incorrectly by taking into account the subletted area as 3076 sq.ft. whereas the actual subletted area comes to 6305 sq.ft. by converting the subletted area mentioned in sq.mt. into sq.ft. Due to this reason, the subletting charges was re-calculated and now it comes to Rs.9, 38,184/- and interest @ 18% (compound) is calculated as Rs.8, 39,659/-. Thus, the total demand calculated to Rs.20, 03,317/-, out of which the applicant has already paid an amount of Rs.11,49,387/-. Accordingly, as per the fresh calculation, the demand of Rs.8, 53,930/- will remain outstanding against the applicant, out of which subletting charges comes to Rs.4,80,475/- and interest at Rs.3,73,455/- up to the date of filing application. The matter has been deliberated by the ILMAC and the Committee is of the view that since the arithmetic error occurred on the part of the department, therefore, the interest component for the period no demand has been raised for the balance amount of subletting charges is not appropriate. Further, as per the order dated 31.1.2008, it has already been decided by the Hon’ble L.G. that 18% simple interest should be charged for all belated payments. The C.I. has also taken the same view and ordered to charge 18% simple interest is accordance with LG’s order. Therefore, the interest component on the total subletting charges should be re-calculated @18% simple interest. Acordingly, ILMAC, after going through the recommendation of the concerned branch, is of the view that no interest should be charged for the periods and for the amounts for which demand was not raised /pending with the applicant and that the interest should be calculated @ 18% simple interest in view of the order dated 31.1.2008. The concerned branch should get the demand re-calculated accordingly @ 18% simple interest and intimate the applicant about the outstanding dues accordingly. 21. E-198, FFC Okhla M/s Plastomac (India). The request is pending before the department for change in constitution in favour of Smt. Chanchal Kumari and Smt. Neelam Mahandru. The change in constitution was approved at N/60 on file with conditions stipulated therein as mentioned at N/60. While the case was under process, a letter was received from ACP, Crime Branch, Economic Offence Wing concerning to this flat which was reminder of letter dated 24.5.1999 (C-205 on file). Originally this flat was allotted to Shri Girish Kumar and subsequent event about the change of partnership and dissolution deed are on record. Smt Samundri Devi has complaint about the fraudulently transferring the flat by way of fraud in the partnership. Smt. Samundri Devi is in between link prior to this change which was subsequently dissolved by dissolution deed on record. Since then, the matter had been pending and the crime branch has filed report before the court. At one point of time, a decision was taken by the then Commissioner on file that the issue should be close down till final outcome of the court case (N-79). Subsequent to this many letters written by this Department to LBR, Economic Office Wing to provide the status of the case as well as provide a copy of charge sheet, if possible. The letters are on record. Till date no reply of these letters has been received. The matter was placed before the ILMAC and ILMAC after going through the entire detail of the case is of considered view that a last letter is required to be written to Economic Offence Wing to provide the status of the case, and if they have any objection to allow change in constitution or not. In the letter it should be clearly mentioned that if no reply is received within 20 days of the receipt of this letter, the department will process the case further to allow change in constitution as approved by the then CI on 9.12.1998 at N/60. At N/105, the then Commissioner also recorded that we cannot keep cases pending unnecessarily. Taking all the matters into consideration, after receipt of reply or in case no reply is received from the Economic Offence Wing, in such case an Indemnity Bond (duly registered with sub-registrar) from the applicant is required to be obtained and thereafter the case should be submitted before the competent authority i.e. C.I. for implementing the order of the then C.I. at N/60 about the change in constitution, which was approved on 9.12.1998 subject to completion of all formalities and establishing proper chain of all changes taken place as per Land Management Guidelines and payment of pending dues, if any. 22. The directions of CMD, DSIIDC in the file of Plot No. 131, Narela Industrial Area were placed before the ILMAC by GM, Narela Allotment Cell. The case of this plot was placed before ILMAC on 15/2/2010 for change of constitution in favour of applicant and petitioner Shri Sanjeev Bhatia, pursuant to directions of Hon’ble High Court dated 19/1/10 in Contempt Case No. 207/2008. While approving the change of constitution as directed by Hon’ble High Court on payment of the change of constitution charges as recommended by ILMAC, CMD and Secy-cum-CI has ordered as follows: - “ As proposed. - ILMAC may also recommend a method by which such delays are avoided and the payments are received timely, separately pl.” ILMAC has deliberated over the matter and it is observed as follows: 1) In respect of Narela Industrial Area specifically, earlier the delay was primarily occurring because the powers of change of constitution were being exercised by Industries Department. However, the Lessor, i.e. Hon’ble LG has in 2008 delegated powers for execution of lease, conversion, etc to DSIIDC, due to which there is no justification for delays now. 2) The branches concerned of DSIIDC as well as those of Industries Department dealing with land matters of different industrial estates were facing difficulties on some issues, such as calculation of UEI charges in death cases where married daughters are among legal heirs, change of directors/shareholders in pvt. Limited companies, interest rate on delayed payments, etc. All such cases are now being placed before ILMAC and decision is being expedited. Clarification has been requested from Law Department and Inspector General of Registration also where required. 3) Further, in order to avoid the delay in receipt of payments, ILMAC recommends that the land branch concerned should take Advance Transfer Charges where the matter is very clear cut and the charges are clearly defined. In other cases, the branch should calculate the demand provisionally and put up the matter before ILMAC, maximum within 30 days of the receipt of application. If the application is deficient, the deficiency memo should also be sent at the earliest, but not later than 15 days of the receipt of the application giving a reasonable time within which the applicant should rectify the defects, failing which the application should be rejected and not kept pending. 4) 18% S.I. on the demanded amount should be charged if the amount is not deposited within 30 days from the date of issue of demand letter, and this should be clearly stated in the demand letter, However, it would not be justified to claim interest from the applicant for the period of pendency in the department during which neither a deficiency memo nor a demand letter has been issued.

The lease of Plot No.S-53, Phase-I, Badli Industrial Estate was considered by the ILMAC for conversion from lease hold to free hold as per the recommendation of the concerned branch. Shri Naveen Jain, applicant appeared before the Committee. The case was last seen by ILMAC in its meeting held on 18.10.2010 and as per the recommendations, the conversion amount paid by the original allottee was adjusted with the approval of the competent authority and after realization of entire conversion amount, the case has been placed before this Committee for recommendation. As per the Estate Manager report, nothing adverse is reported and all dues are reported to be paid and construction is within the maximum permissible limit. Accordingly, ILMAC recommends to allow conversion from lease hold to free hold in favour of present applicant as per recommendation of concerned branch subject to payment of outstanding dues, if any, as per guidelines. 2. The case of Shed No.28, Phase-II, Scheme-II, Okhla Industrial Area, New Delhi was taken up by the ILMAC. Shri Arjun Kumar Kapur, the applicant and his father Shri Dalbir Kumar Kapur appeared before the Committee. The brief history of the case is that the said shed was in the name of Mrs. Veena Kapur. Mrs. Kapur expired on 20.12.2007 and her son Shri Arjun Kumar Kapur has applied for transfer of shed in his name as legal heir of his deceased mother. Shri Arjun Kumar Kapur has submitted all the legal documents like relinquishment deed, duly registered with the sub-registrar office, executed by the other two legal heirs namely the husband and daughter of the deceased, Indemnity Bond, Original WILL, original death certificate etc. The recovery branch of DSIIDC has already recommended the case for transfer of shed in the name of the applicant Shri Arjun Kumar Kapur, son of the deceased allottee. In view of the above, the ILMAC recommends the change of constitution in favour of Shjri Arjun Kumar Kapur without UEI, since the transfer is within the legal heirs after death of the allottee in accordance with the WILL. 3. The case of S-50, Badli Industrial Estate was considered by the ILMAC for conversion from lease hold to free hold as per the recommendation of the concerned branch. The applicants are subsequent purchasers and chain of documents/transfer is reported to be complete as per the report available at page 456/C. Estate Manager report also mention nothing adverse against the unit. Composition charges has been realized for the 4th year as per form `D’ dated 7.12.1983. The applicant has also produced NOC from State Bank of India against mortgage permission. Accordingly, ILMAC recommends to allow conversion from lease hold to free hold in favour of the present applicant subject to payment of outstanding dues, if any, as per guidelines. 4. Shed No.4 Phase-II, Badli Industrial Estate. This case was considered by ILMAC regarding mutation in favour of Shri Kailash Yadav in his presence. The matter was earlier discussed in ILMAC on 29.12.2009, when it was observed that the applicant is occupying the area of 5500 Sq.ft. against the allotted land of 4800 Sq.ft., as per the report of the Estate Manager. At that time, the applicant had agreed to remove the encroachment from the government land. Now as per the fresh report received from the Estate Manager mentioned that he had visited the site and found that the excess areas has been vacated and new boundary wall has been erected. Further he has relied upon the site plan issued by the registered Architecture Shri Manjit Singh Saggu. There is a statement also given by Shri Kailash Yadav to the Estate Manager in this regard. After considering the same, ILMAC is of the view that the Estate Manager should submit his clear cut report with respect to the encroachment of Government Land as reported by him earlier and also the applicants should furnish an affidavit declaring that they have removed the encroachment and they will not encroach the said land in future. The concerned branch should take action accordingly. 5. The case of Plot No.H-1167, Narela was considered in the ILMAC. Shri Ravi Chadha, allottee of the plot also appeared before the Committee and submitted his contention that since he has already submitted an application for execution of lease deed, so composition charges in respect of execution of lease deed may not be charged. However, as per record available, a demand of Rs.15,900/- on account of road cutting and water connection charges & Rs.5,400/- on account of sever connection was sent vide letter No.753 dated 17.8.2005. The allottee has contended that he was not in receipt of that letter, hence could not deposit the said charges. Now, the ILMAC is of the considered view thagt an amount of Rs.3,18,500/- on account of non execution of lease deed in accordance with the government policy as the allottee did not execute the lease deed in time in spite of the repeated opportunities and public notices. The contention that he was not in receipt of the letter dated 17.8.2005 of the Corporation could not be accepted as even if it is agreed that the letter was not received by him, it is evident that he did not follow up the application with the department as he has himself admitted. Moreover, he has not paid ground rent and maintenance chargers also for the last 4 to 5 years, which are to be paid two times in a year (i.e. half yearly basis). This also shows that the applicant has been ignoring payment of dues, which was the mandatory requirement for execution of lease deed. In view of the above situation, ILMAC recommends that the lease deed may now to be executed in accordance with time limit set by the Government i.e. 31st March, 2010 subject to payment of composition charges as per the policy and other pending dues. 6. The case of M/s R.K. Mechanical Works, 111, Shastri Nagar, (Application No.53498) for allotment of Industrial Plot under relocation scheme was considered by the Committee in view of the directions of Hon’ble High Court dated 25.1.2010. Shri S.S. Parashar, Attorney Holder of the applicant appeared before the Committee. He shows some of the documents like Central Sales Tax Registration Certificate etc. issued on 19.6.2000 with date of liability mentioned as 20.9.1995. The case deferred for 16th March, 2010 for further deliberation. Shri Parashar was advised to bring all relevant documents in support of his claim on the said date. 7. The case of Plot No.105, Phase-II, Badli Industrial Estate was considered by the ILMAC for conversion from lease hold to free hold as per the recommendation of the concerned branch. Shri S.L. Chhabra, the applicant appeared before the Committee. The applicant is a subsequent purchaser on the strength of GPA and agreement to sell dated 24.12.1985 and GPA is registered whereas agreement to sell is unregistered. Construction is within the last extension granted as per form `D’. Nothing adverse has been reported by the Estate Manager. Accordingly, ILMAC recommends to allow conversion from lease hold to free hold in favour of Sh. S.L. Chhabra & Smt. Anita Chhabra subject to payment of outstanding dues, if any, as per guidelines. 8. The case of Plot No.24, Phase-II, Badli Industrial Estate was placed before the Committee in which an affidavit is expected to file with Hon’ble High Court regarding the matter of subletting between the sister concerns. Since it is a sub-judice matter, based on the facts and documents, the branch may process and file the affidavit, after taking approval from the competent authority, in the Hon’ble High Court in the next date of hearing. In this case Shri V.K. Jain, allottee along with Shri Ashok Jain s/o of the allottee also appeared before the Committee and explained that the next date of hearing is 26th April, 2010. Within this deadline the needful to be done. 9. The case of plot No.199, FIE Patpargang was considered by the ILMAC for conversion from lease hold to free hold as per the recommendation of the concerned branch. Shri Baldev Raj Chawla, Applicant appeared before the Committee. It has been reported that the applicant has constructed the premises within maximum permissible time and composition charges have been paid as per order dated 5.10.2009. There is a subletting reported for the period from 2004 to till filing the application for conversion and subletting charges with interest has been paid by the applicant. Nothing adverse has been reported by the Estate Manager. The applicant is a subsequent purchaser and chain of transfer is complete. Accordingly, ILMAC recommends to allow conversion from lease hold to free hold in favour of the applicant as per recommendation of concerned branch subject to payment of outstanding dues, if any, as per guidelines. 10. The case of Plot No.1243, Narela was placed before the Committee as per the recommendation of the concerned branch. Shri Manoj Vij, partner is appeared before the Committee. It was found that the branch has not examined the case of conversion from lease hold to free hold by taking all relevant facts and documents. Further, there is a direction from the Hon’ble High Court regarding petition filed by the allottee in connection with the reduction of conversion charges. It is therefore, the ILMAC is of the view that the land branch examine the issue by incorporating the directions of the Hon’ble High Court and other relevant papers and may be placed in the next meeting of ILMAC with clear cut recommendations as per Land Management Guidelines. 11. S-98, Phase-II, Okhla Industrial Area. As per the Hon’ble High Court order dated 17.4.2009, interest was enhanced against delay in payment for restoration charges from 6% to 10.2% on the basis of review application filed in the Hon’ble Court. Further, the court in their previous order dated 29.1.2008, allowed to pay amount in installments. The applicant has paid amount at various stages whereas the Accounts Branch has calculated interest on total restoration charges of Rs.5,18,112/- till the last payment received whereas the applicant has claimed to adjust the amount at various stages of the amount paid i.e. principal & interest. After going through the request of the applicant, the Committee is of the considered view that the accounts branch should re-calculate the amount as per GFR rules so that the applicant could be informed with clear calculation in the matter that what is the outstanding amount to be paid by him till date. Whatever principal amount paid at different stages, on that amount interest cannot be charged after the date of payment received (principal amount) as levying of interest after receipt of principal amount will not stand judicial scrutiny. 12. Shed No.17, O.I.E Phase-III—Ideal Hi –Tech Engineering Equipment Pvt.Ltd. has applied for conversion of this land from Lease hold to free hold. Shri Bansal and Shri Dhruv Sharma representatives of M/s Ideal Hi-Tech. Engg. Equipment Pvt. Ltd. were also present in the meeting. The lease was executed in favour of the allottee on 07.04.1992. The Company was initially constituted with following share-holders:I) II) III) IV) V) VI) Sh. Ashok Kumar Jain Sh.A.D.Mittla Smt.Kusum Lata Jain Sh.Keshav Chander Jain Smt Bimla Devi Sh.Sagar Chand Jain Subsequent to this it was informed in this instant case that all the share holders of this company has been replaced by the following share holders:i) ii) iii) Sh.D.K.Jain Sh.Pankaj Jain Smt,Usha Jain This information was given by the applicant on dated 17-01-2002(C/220 to C/221 on file). On this basis the change of share holders was allowed charging 50% unearned increase on 100% transfer of shares. A letter was issued to this effect on 08.05.2002 (C/223 on record). Subsequent to this the allottee did not make payment as the applicant was disputing the demand raised by the department. The applicant applied for conversion from lease hold to free hold on dated 18.03.2009. The department decided to recover the arrear from the allottee first against the demand dated 08.05.2002 with interest. All the pending issues were brought before the ILMAC on 09-11-2009, 21-12-2009,04-01-2010 and 18-01-2010. Finally a demand of Rs.1,03,58,897/- was raised and applicant has paid the amount. While processing the case of free hold, the current list of share holders was asked. The applicant informed as per copy supplied by him at page (C/478-479 on record) that Sh.Pankaj Jain transferred his share on 30.03.2002 to his mother Smt.Usha Jain i.e. prior to issue of demand letter dated 08.05.2002. In all other cases wherever share has been transferred out of family, 100% surcharge is being levied by the Accounts Branch. In this instant case Sh.Pankaj Jain has transferred the share in favour of his mother and as per LMG, transfer of share from son to mother do not fall under family definition. It was also observed by the ILMAC that date of transfer is 30.03.2002 whereas demand letter was issued on 08.05.2002 against 100% transfer of shares. Here question arises whether the surcharge is leviable against the subsequent transfer of shares out of family is chargeable or not as department has already received 50% UEI against the 100% share transferred. Secondly whether again transfer of share before raising the demand and intimation given now will attract surcharge or not. The ILMAC is of considered view that during this period of transfer of share 50% UEI has already been charged, therefore, it will not be appropriate to charge surcharge at this stage. With this recommendation ILMAC is of further view to seek approval by the Competent Authority about regularization of the above changes without any surcharge. If Competent Authority feels so, opinion of Law Department, Govt. of NCT of Delhi will also be obtained in this matter. Once the issue is resolved, the ILMAC is of considered view to recommend the case for conversion from lease hold to free hold subject to the provisions of policy guidelines and dues to be recovered, if any.

A meeting of the Industrial Land Management Advisory Committee (ILMAC) was convened on 08.03.2010 at 11.30 A.M. which was attended by the following members:1. Sh. A.R. Talwade, JCI – Chairman 2. Sh.

Garg, Chief Manager, DSIIDC – Member The cases discussed were as under:1. Plot No. 349, FIE Patparganj - The case for conversion from leasehold to freehold was considered by ILMAC. The applicant, M/s Heat Exchange Pvt. Ltd. was represented by the Directors Shri Ajeet Singh, Mrs. Jasbir Kaur and Mr. Harmit Singh. There was a complaint of Shri V.K. Daman in the matter regarding violation of conditions of lease by the applicant and he was also called in the meeting. Shri V.K. Dhawan accompanied by Shri Ajeet Kumar Mittal, Proprietor of the said firm were also present. The complainant, Shri V.K. Dhawan was asked to identify himself as well as the complaints he has against the applicants. Shri V.K. Dhawan introduced himself as Manager of Ajeet Mittal Corporation. The grievance of the complainant was that he had taken the premises at Plot No. 349, FIE Patparganj on rent from M/s Heat Exchange Pvt. Ltd. i.e. the allottee in the year 2003. He further states that he was kept in dark by the allottee while executing the lease deed (rent deed) by stating that they are the absolute owners of the plot whereas it came to his notice later on that they were the Lessee of the said plot which was allotted by Industries Department on lease. He has further stated that the allottee unit did not require the plot for its bonafide use and needs to be proceeded against for violation of lease conditions. It was informed by the applicant that the premises were let out to Mr. Ajeet Mittal on rental basis for a period of three years through a registered deed in the year 2003. Shri Ajeet Mittal retorted that the lease agreement was for a period of 3 years, but written understanding was for 10 years. He has also given a written statement along with documents as enclosed therewith. The applicant further informed that the matter was taken to arbitration as there was a dispute between the owner and the tenant and the final award has been given after which they have been given back possession in Septemebr,2009 for which premises were sealed by the Hon’ble Court to ensure recovery of money from the tenant and ensure handing over the possession to the applicant. The Committee has been brought to the notice regarding the above points/observations. The Committee feels that at the outset there is a fight between the allottee of the plot and the tenant. The tenant raised some allegations in his complaint which are to be examined in detail with reference to the Land Management Guidelines and the conversion policy. After the examination of this issue the branch may place the same before ILMAC. 2. Plot No. S-79, Phase-I, Badli Industrial Estate, Delhi – The case was considered by the ILMAC for conversion from lease hold to free hold as per the recommendations of the concerned branch. Shri M.L. Dua, applicant was also present. The case was last discussed in the meeting of ILMAC on 9.11.09 when it was observed that the family settlement submitted by the applicant is not registered. So he was advised to produce the same. Sh. M. L. Dua vide letter dated 15.02.2010 has submitted a copy of agreement to sell between Sh. Subhash Dua & Sh. M. L. Dua dated 17.05.1995 duly attested by Notary Public in lieu of registered family settlement as was asked from him. Applicant contents that he had not submitted the same earlier on the premises that family settlement entered into by him and his wife with his relative i.e. his cousin brother and his wife is sufficient to establish the complete chain of transfer upto him. Since the department is not inclined to agree to the unregistered family settlement, he is now producing agreement to sell in his favour for ½ undivided share of said plot. The concerned branch has recommended the case on the basis of agreement to sell as the chain of transfer now becomes complete for allowing conversion in favour of Sh. M. L. Dua and his wife Smt. Kanta Dua. ILMAC has also considered the same and has found an affidavit signed by Sh. Subhash Dua at page 187/C confirming the transfer/surrender of ½ share of industrial plot No. S-79, in favour of Sh. M. L. Dua with delivery of actual vacant physical possession of the said property. The signature on the family settlement and the said affidavit are more or less are similar. The signature of Sh. Subhash Dua on agreement to sell now submitted. Considering the same and the recommendations of the concerned branch, ILMAC recommends to allow conversion from lease hold to free hold in respect of Plot No. S-79, Phase-I, Badli Industrial Estate, Delhi in favour of Sh. M. L. Dua and Smt. Kanta Dua subject to payment of outstanding dues if any as per guidelines. 3. Plot No. S-33, Phase-I, Badli Industrial Estate, Delhi - The case of Plot No. S-33, BIE was considered for clarification with regard to calculation of transfer charges subsequent to the date of purchase in 1986 on the changes in constitution has been reflected in some correspondences as proprietor or as partner for which the applicant has shown his inability to provide the same because there were no changes during this period as claimed by them before the ILMAC. Sh. Vijay Singhal GPA holder was also present. It was informed to the ILMAC that the transfer charges are to be calculated in view of the observation of the OSD to LG at page 118/N while examining the appeal of the applicants for restoration of the lease. GM(DSIIDC) informed the ILMAC that there is some instructions going to be issued soon and it will be appropriate if case is deferred till the receipt of the same. ILMAC accordingly recommends to defer the matter till issue of such instruction if any and after which the concerned branch will process the matter and place it before the ILMAC. 4. Plot No. 16, FIE, Patparganj, Delhi - Plot No. 16, FIE, Patparganj, Delhi was considered for conversion from lease hold to free hold in favour of M/s Sparsh Builders Pvt. Ltd. The applicant is subsequent purchaser through GPA and agreement to sell. The chain is complete and the both i.e. the GPA as well as agreement to sell dated 06.07.2006 are registered with Sub Registrar office as per the requirement. EM report confirmed the possession as well as manufacturing activity while certifying that nothing adverse is noticed including encroachment on Govt. land.

Accordingly ILMAC recommends to allow conversion from lease hold to free hold in favour of M/s Sparsh Builders Pvt. Ltd. Subject to payment of outstanding dues if any and as per guidelines. 5. M/s Manas Industrial Corporation (Application No. 11011) – The case was considered by the ILMAC. Smt. Savita Mahajan was present as Proprietor of the firm. The issue before ILMAC is whether UEI is chargeable in this case. The initial eligibility for allotment of relocation plot was issued by DSIIDC on 25.4.2000 in favour of the allottee firm and subsequently after the draw of plot held on 26.8.04, a letter of allotment was issued on 24.9.2004. In the meanwhile constitution of the firm has changed as follows: Name Percentage 1. Shri Darshan Mehta Partner 1/3rd 2. Smt. Rajni Mahajan Partner 1/3rd 3. Smt. Savita Mahajan Partner 1/3rd The above partnership deed was dissolved by dissolving/retirement deed dated 12.03.04 and thereafter the present applicant, Smt. Savita Mahajan is the sole proprietor of the applicant firm. The relevant provision of the Land Management Guideline (para-1(vi) is as follows: “Changes done between the date of application and the date of offer of allotment/demand letter will be accepted without any change. The date of offer of allotment will be the date of issue of offer of allotment letter/demand letter”. The relevant question for deciding the case regarding applicability of UEI is whether the date of offer of allotment as per the Land Management Guideline is 25.4.2000 or 26.08.2004. Another question is the year for which the UEI charges will be determined, if applicable, as there was a delay by the applicant in intimating the change in constitution. The Relocation Branch of DSIIDC may place this matter again in ILMAC next week with full facts. The meeting ended with vote of thanks to the chair. (M.S.
