casestatus.in Summary

Summary The Supreme Court allowed Durai Enterprises' appeal against the High Court's dismissal, finding the 6th tender process was effectively cancelled when a 7th tender was subsequently issued. However, rather than vacating the contract awarded to Kalawati Enterprises (the 6th tender winner at Rs. 14,01,30,009), the Court directed Kalawati Enterprises to pay an additional Rs. 2 crore to the temple within three months to bridge the gap with the higher 7th tender pricing, permitting the existing license to continue for the remaining one year of its two-year term. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
