Summary On December 8, 2000, the Supreme Court allowed the University Grant Commission's appeal against Bijoy Oommen's writ petition. The Court found that the respondent secured only 55% marks with 4 grace marks, falling short of the minimum eligibility requirement of 55% excluding grace marks as specified in the advertisement. The Court set aside the High Court's order and dismissed the respondent's writ petition, holding that the High Court erred by not properly considering the eligibility conditions stated in the advertisement. Costs were imposed on the parties. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
