    Case Summary: WP(C)/6214/2023 - M/S Deepak and Co. v. Union of India The Gauhati High Court modified its interim order in this railway catering license dispute. The petitioners (a Delhi-based catering firm) challenged IRCTC's authority to revise license fees, arguing only Railways had such power under the 2010 Catering Policy. The court directed petitioners to deposit license fees at pre-revision rates within 15 days to avoid coercive action, with IRCTC's acceptance not prejudicing either party's position in ongoing proceedings. The case is listed for 12.06.2026; the order clarifies it does not grant license renewal or create any rights for the petitioners. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
