In Montecarlo Ltd. v. NTPC [Montecarlo Ltd. v. NTPC, (2016) 15 SCC 272 : AIR 2016 SC 4946] it was held that where a decision is taken that is manifestly in consonance with the language of the tender document or subserves the purpose for which the tender is floated, the court should follow the principle of restraint.

Nec Technologies India Pvt Ltd vs Shivamogga Smart City Limited on 21 March, 2019

11. It is equally a well settled legal principle that award of contract whether it is by a private party or by a public body or the State, is essentially a commercial transaction and in arriving at a commercial decision, considerations which are paramount are commercial considerations. The State can choose its own method to arrive at a decision. It can enter into negotiations before finally deciding to accept one of the offers made and it is free to grant any relaxation for bona fide reason if the tender conditions permit such relaxation. The State, its Corporations, instrumentalities and agencies have the public duty to be fair to all concerned. It is further held that even if some defect is found in the decision making process, the Court must exercise its discretionary power under Article 226 with great caution and must exercise only in furtherance of public interest and not merely on making out of a legal 19 point. It is also held that Court should always keep the larger public interest in mind in order to decide whether or not its intervention is called for and only when it comes to the conclusion that overwhelming public interest requires interference, the Court should intervene.
