The press release in this regard in www.kanchi.tn.nic.in also says that "In respect of lands involved in court cases or the lands covered under the provisions of T.N. Land Reforms Act, the payment will be made as per the provisions of the respective act". I believe this covers all residential plots and layouts that are CMDA approved.
