India’s Supreme Court listed a civil property dispute between Subhash Chand and Shiv Kumar Gupta for hearing on May 22, registering the matter as diary number 11062/2026 on the apex court’s cause list.
The Special Leave Petition arises from a long-running disagreement over ownership and possession of immovable property. Details of the lower court findings were not immediately available in the public listing, but the case appeared on the Supreme Court’s latest orders page among matters scheduled for the day’s board.
Property disputes form a substantial share of India’s civil appellate docket, with parties frequently approaching the Supreme Court after exhausting remedies in district and high courts. The listing indicates the bench will examine whether substantial questions of law warrant intervention.
Parties and counsel were expected to present arguments on title, succession or partition issues underlying the dispute. The court’s eventual order could clarify evidentiary or procedural standards applicable in similar property litigation.
Special Leave Petitions allow the Supreme Court discretionary review without automatic admission. The court’s daily cause lists reflect heavy civil caseloads from states including Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra and Bihar where property litigation remains endemic.
Property titles in India often involve succession certificates, revenue records and decades of litigation, making Supreme Court intervention common when high courts disagree on documentary evidence standards.
