it's acceptance of bid subject to fulfillment of the conditions stated
therein and as those conditions were not fulfilled and even the part
that was required to be completed by the petitioner no.1 remained to
be fulfilled, the said letter could not be termed as the LoA. Learned
Senior Advocate for respondent no.1 further submits that this LoA
does not create any binding obligations so as to result into a
concluded contract between the parties, as the acceptance is not
conditional. He seeks support from Section 7 of the Indian Contract
Act, 1872. He points out that, in the said letter of acceptance, the
words "tendered work is awarded to you " are not mentioned and
therefore, it could not be regarded as LoA. He also submits that
having accepted the conditions of the said letter of acceptance, it was
necessary for the petitioner no.1 to have executed Concession
Agreement and furnished a performance security and same having
not done, no vested rights are created in petitioner no.1 and that it
cannot say that it would accept only some of the conditions of the
said letter and would reject the others. He places reliance upon the
cases of Rishi Kiran Logistics Private Limited vs. Board of Trustees of
Kandla Port Trust and Others reported in (2015) 13 SCC 233, Padia
Timber Company Private Limited .vs. Board of Trustees of
Visakhapatnam Port Trust, through its Secretary reported in (2021) 3

Gupta Sugar Works vs State Of U.P. & Ors on 26 October, 1987
In the case of Gupta Sugar Works .vs. State of U.P. and
Others reported in 1987 (Supp) SCC 476, it is held that price fixing is
neither a function nor a forte of the Court and the Court only
examines whether the price determined was with due regard to the
considerations provided by the Statute and whether extraneous
considerations, have been excluded from determination, as the Court
not being an expert cannot substitute it's decision for that of an

Jagdish Mandal vs State Of Orissa & Ors on 11 December, 2006
In the instant case, we have found that the decision
as manifested through the impugned communication suffers from the
vice of arbitrariness and unreasonableness and it is hit by the
doctrines of promissory estoppel and legal malice and that it is not
found to be taken in public interest and therefore, on the parameters
of said case of Jagdish Mandal (supra), judicial review of the
impugned decision is permissible.
Municipal Council Neemuch vs Mahadeo Real Estate on 17 September, 2019
In the case of Municipal Council, Neemuch .vs. Mahadeo
Real Estate and Others reported in (2019) 10 SCC 738, it is held that
the scope of judicial review of an administrative action is very
limited. It is further held that unless the Court comes to a conclusion
that the decision-maker has not understood the law correctly that
regulates his decision-making power or when it is found that the
decision of the decision-maker is vitiated by irrationality and that too,
on the principle of "Wednesbury reasonableness" or unless it is found
that there has been a procedural impropriety in the decision-making
process, it would not be permissible for the High Court to interfere in
the decision-making process. It is further held that it is not
permissible for the Court to examine the validity of a decision but the
Court can examine only the correctness of the decision-making
process. What we have examined here is the correctness or otherwise
of the decision making process by following these principles of law.
