In Brief
This case concerned a special leave petition and related writ petitions seeking permits to sell vehicles. The Supreme Court found that due to the passage of time, the parties had lost interest in pursuing the matter, rendering the petitions infructuous. Accordingly, the Court dismissed the special leave petition and related appeals. The judgment clarified that from 1 April 2020 onwards, only BS-VI compliant vehicles are permitted to be sold, establishing a mandatory emission standard that all vehicle dealers must observe.
