Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court directed the Slum Rehabilitation Authority to issue a letter of intent in favor of M/s Keya Developers and Construction Company (P) Ltd. for redevelopment work, emphasizing that M/s Sigtia Construction Company Private Ltd. was not made a party in the prior proceedings despite being directly affected. The Court held that the absence of Sigtia in the proceedings violated principles of natural justice, as they were not given an opportunity to contest the appointment of Keya as the developer. The order from 27.06.2006 was recalled, ensuring Sigtia's right to be heard was upheld.
