Jaipur Vidyut Vitran Nigam Ltd. vs Rerc And Ors. on 13 November, 2007
31. Apparently, there was no restriction to quantify shortfall of coal
with reference to any date, for example 31.03.2017 as a cut-off date. In
51
Judgment in Appeal No. 283 of 2019
that view of the matter, we are of the opinion, to cut short multiplicity of
proceedings/litigations, the CERC was justified to consider shortfall of
coal beyond 31.03.2017 as noted in the SHAKTI Policy. At the cost of
repetition, we once again place on record that in Civil Appeals pertaining
to Jaipur Vidyut Vitran Nigam's case (Adani 202 judgment), Honble Apex
Court upheld the opinion of this Tribunal that SHAKTI Scheme is
continuation of NCDP 2007 and 2013, therefore, the challenge raised by
the Appellant with regard to SHAKTI Scheme issue is no longer res
integra.
