    Summary: UETA INC & ORS. v. UNION OF INDIA & ORS. (W.P.(C) 8049/2024) Outcome: Writ petition dismissed for lack of territorial jurisdiction. Delhi High Court found no material part of cause of action arose within its jurisdiction, despite exclusive jurisdiction clause in RFP favoring Delhi courts. Key Facts: UETA INC and partners challenged rejection of their bid for duty-free outlets at Noida International Airport, alleging the tender process was illegal and mala fide. Winner (Heinemann Asia Pacific and BWC Forwarders) was awarded the license via Letter of Intent on 3 May 2024. Reasoning: Court held that mere payment of bid fees into Delhi bank account, website announcement in Delhi, or executives signing from Delhi office do not constitute integral parts of cause of action under Article 226(2). Substantive procurement activities occurred in Uttar Pradesh; contractual jurisdiction clauses cannot create jurisdiction where none exists.
