Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) acted improperly in withdrawing the increase of seats in the PGDM-IB program after initially granting approval. The Court found that the petitioner had fulfilled all requirements for the increase and had been accredited by the National Board of Accreditation, despite a temporary lapse in accreditation. The Court restored the original sanction allowing the increase in seats from 60 to 120, thereby allowing the admissions made by the petitioner based on the initial approval.
