OIL & NATURAL GAS CORP.LTD. vs GUJARAT ENERGY TRANSMISSION CORP.LD.&ORS

The Supreme Court examined the appeal under Section 125 of the Electricity Act, 2003, regarding the condonation of a 71-day delay in filing an appeal against the Appellate Tribunal's decision. The Court held that it has the jurisdiction to condone the delay if satisfied that the appellant was prevented by sufficient cause, referencing Section 14 of the Limitation Act, 1963 for excluding time spent on a review petition. Ultimately, the Court found the preliminary objection regarding the condonation of delay to be without merit, allowing the appeal to proceed.
