Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed appeals concerning the distribution of electricity under the Electricity Regulatory Commissions Act, 1998, specifically Section 22(2)(e) and (n). The Court held that Tata Power Company Limited was entitled to distribute electricity within the area of supply licensed to BSES Limited, affirming the validity of Tata Power's licenses post-amalgamation. The judgment clarified the rights of licensees in overlapping supply areas, ultimately dismissing BSES's claims against Tata Power.
