Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity, affirming that the communication from Coal India Limited did not constitute a 'Change in Law' event under the Power Project Agreements. The court reasoned that the interpretation of contractual terms regarding changes in law must align with the original intent of the parties involved. Consequently, the appeal by Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam Limited was dismissed, maintaining the status quo established by the APTEL's ruling.
