CONSORTIUM OF TITAGARH FIREMA ADLER S.P.A.- TITAGARH WAGONS LTD, THROUGH AUTHORISED SIGNATORY TITAGA vs NAGPUR METRO RAIL CORPORATION LTD

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's writ petition challenging the tender process of Nagpur Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. The Court found that the appellant, having participated in the bidding process with knowledge of Clause 26 of the tender document, could not later claim it was arbitrary or violative of Article 14 of the Constitution. The Court reiterated that challenges to tender conditions must be raised promptly, and the High Court's reliance on precedents such as New Horizons Ltd. v. Union of India and Tata Cellular v. Union of India was justified.
