    The High Court of Bombay at Aurangabad allowed the petition by Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Ltd., quashing the Electricity Ombudsman's July 2019 order that had directed industrial tariff benefits be extended to Lalit Industries from the connection date for bills covering October 2013 to August 2017. The court held that the complaint was time-barred as it pertained to a period beyond two years before filing, and the benefit had already been granted for the two-year limitation period under established precedent.
