Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court ruled in favor of M/s JSW Steel Limited, overturning the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity's decision that imposed an additional surcharge on captive consumers. The court found that the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission's interpretation of Section 42(4) of the Electricity Act, 2003 was incorrect, as it did not apply to the circumstances of the case. Consequently, the appeals by the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company were dismissed, affirming the rights of the captive consumers.
