The Bombay High Court on Thursday allowed Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) to amend its plea in its suit against National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC). Earlier a single-member Bench of the HC had given a similar order, against which NTPC had filed an appeal.
RIL through the proposed amendment wants to bring on record the affidavit filed by the Central government in the RIL-RNRL case in the high court last year and to take a stand that RIL's bid for NTPC tender stands frustrated due to the government's policy. The HC has given NTPC four weeks to appeal in the Supreme Court.
