Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the validity of Rule 5 of the Madhya Pradesh Micro and Small Enterprises Facilitation Council Rules, 2006, stating it is not ultra vires and aligns with the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006, specifically sections 30 and 21(3). The Court ruled that the recovery mechanism provided under Rule 5 is a valid additional remedy for enforcing awards under section 18(3) of the Act of 2006, and it does not violate Article 14 of the Constitution. The appeal by Power Machines India Ltd. was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision.
