"The Municipal Corporations and their Commissioners do have substantial powers under the Maharashtra Municipal Corporation (MMC) Act, 1949; however, these powers can never be exercised to benefit builders or developers at the cost of public amenities," the court said. The high court imposed a cost of INR 2 lakh on a developer and the civic body.
