💨 Abstract

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has issued a termination notice to French consultant Systra for submitting flawed cost estimates, leading to project risks. The Bombay High Court quashed the notice, calling it arbitrary and unfair, and directed a fresh hearing for Systra. MMRDA claims the court decision upholds its authority to terminate the contract without assigning reasons, a provision accepted by Systra.
