Indsil Hydro Power & Manganese Ltd vs State of Kerala & Ors. etc

Bench: 2 — <UNKNOWN>, <UNKNOWN>

In Brief

Indsil Hydro Power challenged the High Court's dismissal of its writ petition seeking deemed generation status for a hydropower project in Kerala, citing delays in transmission line construction. The Supreme Court upheld that deemed generation status is not a matter of right but a discretionary decision. Rather than finally deciding the case, the Court remitted it for the State Government and KSEB to reconsider the matter afresh and take an appropriate decision within four months in accordance with law and fair procedure, seeking finality in the dispute.
