M.K.D.MINERAL & EXPORT(P) LTD. vs B.C. DAGARA

The Supreme Court found the respondent in contempt for failing to comply with its order dated 16th April 2007, which directed the supply of 30,000 MTs of iron ore. The respondent's claims of the petitioner lacking a trading license and the iron ore being below the required iron content were deemed insufficient to justify non-compliance. The Court emphasized the respondent's repeated attempts to modify the order and his overall defiance, leading to a holding of contempt and a directive for compliance with the original order.
