Tehri Hydro Devt.Corp vs Alstom Hydro France & Anr

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the learned Single Judge regarding the qualifications of respondent no.2, equating 'supervision of erection' with 'erection' under the relevant terms of the ITB. However, the Court directed the Tehri Hydro Development Corporation to invite fresh bids due to a lack of clarity in the bidding process, emphasizing the need to avoid cartelization among multinational corporations. The Court's holding aimed to expedite the project while ensuring fair competition, thus allowing both respondents to submit revised bids.
