Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of writ petitions challenging the termination of dealership agreements by Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (BPCL). The Court ruled that the appellants could not pursue parallel remedies, as they had already initiated arbitration proceedings regarding the same issue. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed without costs, affirming the principle that concurrent remedies are not permissible in such cases.
