Case brief
What is this about?
This batch of appeals challenged the Common Review Order dated 10.05.2019 of the CERC, which directed the appellant to share transmission charges with NHPC. The Tribunal held that the liability is governed strictly by the tripartite BPTA dated 18.10.2007, which mandates sharing between the appellant and PTC, and dismissed the Commission's view.
What did the court decide?
Impugned order of CERC dated 10.05.2019 and subsequent orders set aside; invoices issued by PGCIL quashed; directive to issue fresh invoices in terms of BPTA.
