Common Record of Proceedings — heard with connected matters
Lead case: C.A. No. 414/2007
Summary of Supreme Court Judgment Case: GRIDCO Ltd. v. Western Electricity Supply Company of Orissa Ltd. & Ors. (Civil Appeal No. 414/2007 and related appeals) Court: Supreme Court of India Decision: The Court largely dismissed the appeals, finding that the Appellate Tribunal's orders were based on factual findings that did not warrant interference. Two appeals were partially allowed with limited modifications. Key Holdings: 1. Locus Standi of DISCOMs: The Court upheld DISCOMs' right to challenge bulk supply tariff (BST) orders, as RST determinations depend on BST, making them aggrieved parties. 2. Principal Loan Repayment: The Court affirmed that GRIDCO cannot pass through principal loan amounts in tariffs (as this amounts to double-recovery), but interest on loans may be allowed as a cost. 3. Export Earnings: Revenue from power exports must be treated as GRIDCO's earnings and deducted from ARR. 4. Commission's Appeals: The Court expressed serious doubt about the Commission preferring appeals against Appellate Tribunal orders that had tested its own quasi-judicial decisions, and declined to entertain most such appeals. 5. Findings of Fact: The Court refused to overturn factual findings of the Appellate Tribunal and Commission, emphasizing the limited scope of appeals under Section 125 of the Electricity Act. Result: Partially allowed only Civil Appeals 414/2007 and 417/2007 with specified modifications; all other appeals dismissed. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
