Steel Authority Of India Ltd vs State Of Orissa & Ors

The Supreme Court allowed the appeals of Steel Authority of India Ltd. against the State of Orissa, condoning the delay and granting leave. The Court set aside the impugned judgment and remitted the matters to the High Court for a decision on the computation of royalty, which had not been addressed in the previous ruling. This decision follows the precedent established in National Mineral Development Corporation Ltd. Vs. State of M.P. & Another, reported in 2004 (6) SCC 281.
