The petitioner's license had been cancelled by Delhi High Court (5 December 1997), and subsequent appeals and review petitions were dismissed (5 February 1999 and 22 July 1999). Meanwhile, the petrol pump was auctioned, and a third party (Respondent No. 4) successfully bid and deposited Rs. 38.70 lacs in February 2000. The Court declined to continue the stay order due to these intervening developments and tagged the writ petition with SLP(C) No. 6160/1998 for determination of maintainability.
