    The court dismissed the writ petition challenging Indian Oil Corporation Limited's revocation of approval for reconstituting an LPG distributorship from sole proprietorship to partnership. The court held that execution of the formal distributorship agreement is a mandatory condition precedent under IOCL's guidelines, and the petitioners' failure to execute it within the stipulated timeline despite multiple reminders justified IOCL's revocation decision, which was a well-reasoned administrative order not suffering from any infirmity.
