Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the validity of the U.P. Power Corporation's circular dated 8.09.2000, emphasizing that consumers should not suffer due to the Corporation's mistakes. The Court applied the doctrine of estoppel, stating it is applicable where a promise was made, but not where none exists. The decision in LML Ltd. v. State of Uttar Pradesh was referenced, and the review petition against it was dismissed, reinforcing the precedent set in that case.
