Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the appointment of a Retail Outlet Dealer by Indian Oil Corporation, emphasizing the importance of land suitability as per the advertisement's criteria. The Court clarified that the applicant must provide the land indicated in the application within two months of receiving the Letter of Intent, failing which the dealership allotment can be canceled. The judgment reinforces the principle that the company's discretion in determining land suitability is paramount, and the appeal was dismissed accordingly.
