M/S. Pawan Hans Ltd vs Union Of India And Anr

The appellant, M/s. Pawan Hans Ltd., challenged an order by the Monopolies and Restrictive Trade Practices Commission (MRTP Commission) refusing to initiate an inquiry under Section 10 of the MRTP Act. The dispute arose from a failed negotiation for the purchase of flats offered by Lokhandwala Construction Industries Ltd. The Court examined whether the refusal to enter into a contract after preliminary negotiations constitutes an unfair trade practice under the Act.
