Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that under Section 47(3) of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1939, the Regional Transport Authority must adhere to fixed limits when issuing permits. The Court ruled that the State Government, while exercising revisional authority under Section 64-A, cannot grant permits beyond the limits set by the Regional Transport Authority. The High Court's decision to set aside the additional permit granted to the appellant was upheld, affirming that the number of permits must align with the specified vacancies in the advertisement for a new route.
