[Civil Appeal No. 7434 Of 2012]. The appellants are aggrieved by the judgment and order dated 26.3.2010 passed by the Division Bench of Gujarat High Court dismissing the Letters Patent Appeal No.740 of 2002 holding that the appellants are not entitled to the benefit of the Urban Land (Ceiling and Regulation) Repeal Act, 1999 and thereby upheld the judgment passed by the learned Single Judge in the writ petition filed by the appellants. The factual matrix of the case is that the appellants were the owners and land holders of vacant lands situated in different places in the State of Gujarat. When the Urban Land (Ceiling and Regulation) Act, 1976 (in short, "Act of 1976") came into force in August, 1976, the appellants filed the return as required under Section 6 of the Act of 1976 and in the said form the appellants declared their lands situated in village Rajkot, Kothariya and Nana Mauva in the district of Rajkot, Gujarat.
