Abl International Ltd. & Anr vs Export Credit Guarantee Corportion Of ... on 18 December, 2003
private contract. The transportation charges were alleged to have a
discriminatory effect as IPCL was being treated on par with consumers who
were using the HBJ pipeline, whereas IPCL was transporting the gas
through its own pipelines. That being the plea, it was urged that the writ
jurisdiction was the appropriate remedy as there were questions of arbitrary
state action violating the mandate of Article 14. This was notwithstanding
the fact that the issue arose from a contract between the parties, as was also
the case in ABL International Ltd. & Anr. v. Export Credit Guarantee
Corporation of India & Ors.5 It is in these circumstances that the High
Court exercised its writ jurisdiction notwithstanding the availability of an
alternative remedy, i.e. the arbitration clause or through the civil suit. ABL
International6 was also relied on to show that consequent monetary relief
could be granted where such a writ petition was successful.

Joshi Technologies International Inc vs Union Of India & Ors on 14 May, 2015
11. At the outset, Mr. Tushar Mehta, learned Solicitor General, appearing
for GAIL, contested the very maintainability of the writ petition filed by
IPCL. He contended that the parties had provided for arbitration before the
Permanent Machinery of Arbitrators in the Bureau of Public Enterprises
under Clause 13.1 of the contract. Further, the matter was stated to be purely
contractual in nature, involving the enforceability and validity of the terms
of the contract, and no case was made out for violation of Fundamental
Rights. The presence of a public law element was a sine qua non for the
exercise of writ jurisdiction, as elucidated in Joshi Technologies
International Inc. v. Union of India & Ors. 1. The endeavour of IPCL, by
invoking such writ jurisdiction, was alleged to be an attempt to bypass the
law of limitation, as the contract had been signed way back in 09.11.2001. In
any case, the writ petition was also barred by limitation, having been filed
on 09.03.2006, i.e. after a period of five years.
