casestatus.in Summary

Summary: Union of India v. Adani Exports Ltd (2001) The Supreme Court allowed the Union of India's appeals, holding that the Gujarat High Court lacked territorial jurisdiction to entertain Adani Exports' special civil applications challenging denial of Pass Book Scheme benefits for shrimp exports. The Court found that no substantial part of the cause of action arose within Ahmedabad's jurisdiction, as the pass book was issued at Chennai, transactions occurred through Chennai port, and the designated authority was located there. The applications were transferred to the Madras High Court at Chennai for proper adjudication. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
