Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the corrigendum letter dated 21.04.2017, which withdrew the increase in intake for the PGDM-IB program from 120 to 60 seats, was invalid. The Court found that the petitioner had fulfilled all requirements for the increase, including having applied for renewal of accreditation from the National Board of Accreditation in a timely manner. The Court restored the original sanction allowing the increase in seats, emphasizing the legitimacy of admissions already made based on the increased capacity.
