Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether minutes of a meeting can override statutory regulations, specifically under Section 22(i)(a) of the Airport Authority of India Act, 1994. The Court held that statutory provisions, such as those governing the levy of landing and parking charges, cannot be superseded by informal agreements or minutes of meetings. The appeal by Delhi International Airport Limited against the High Court's order allowing the writ petition of the leasing company was dismissed, affirming the validity of the statutory charges and the authority's actions under Regulation 10 of the Airport Authority of India (Management of Airports) Regulations, 2003.
