RATAN KUMAR DEBNATH PARITOSH SINHA vs THE EMPLOYEES STATE INSURANCE CORPORATION AND ORS — WPA/11461/2026

Case Summary: WPA 11461/2026 Outcome: Petition ALLOWED IN PART with interim relief granted. The court issued a temporary injunction restraining respondents from issuing a Letter of Intent, work order, or executing any contract for the ESI Hospital maintenance work for six weeks pending further hearing. Key Finding: The court found prima facie that petitioner Ratan Kumar Debnath's bid was wrongfully rejected. Despite submitting valid MES (Military Engineering Services) registration as a Civil and Electrical Contractor, ESIC rejected his bid claiming registration details were "not submitted." The court noted respondents' contradictory explanations during hearing and that petitioner was never informed of alleged document deficiencies, violating procedural fairness.
