Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the withdrawal of the No Objection Certificate (NOC) issued to the appellant under the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board Regulations Act, 2006. The Court held that the Government of Rajasthan's action to revoke the NOC and forfeit the commitment fees was arbitrary and violated principles of natural justice. The Court set aside the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's writ petition, reinstating the NOC and the commitment fees.
