Cellular Operators Association Of ... vs Union Of India & Ors on 17 December, 2002

In Cellular Operators Association of India Vs. Union of India and others (2003) 3 SCC 186, Hon'ble Supreme Court held that TDSAT was required to exercise its jurisdiction in terms of Section 14-A of the Act. It was further held that the extent of jurisdiction of a court or a Tribunal depends upon the relevant statute. TDSAT is a creator of statute. Its jurisdiction is also conferred by the statute. In this particular case the matter was relating to question of promoting wireless in local loop with limited mobility. In this case Appellant approached the Tribunal under Section 14 (a) challenging the decision of the Commission promoting the fix service provider to offer a wireless local loop (WLL) with limited mobility. The Tribunal by the impugned judgment rejected the application which was challenged before the Hon'ble Supreme Court. In this case the matter was squarely within the jurisdiction of the TDSAT. In the present Appeal, under Section 79(1)(f) of the Electricity Act, Page 29 of 34 Appeal No. 51 and 79 of 2013 2003, the jurisdiction of the Central Commission to adjudicate upon has been confined to the matters connected with Clauses (a) to (d) of Section 79(1) of the Act. The matter of dispute in the present case is not connected with Clauses a) to d) of Section 79(1) of the Act and is beyond the jurisdiction of the Central Commission.

(2007) 7 SCC 517, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that the specialized Tribunal namely TDSAT has been constituted for the purpose of dealing with specialized matters and disputes arising out of Licences granted under the Act and, therefore, there is no reason to restrict the jurisdiction of the Tribunal by keeping out of its purview a persons whose offer has been accepted and whom a Letter of Intent is issued and who had even accepted the Letter of Intent.
