2023 (2) TMI 1244 - HC - Indian LawsDe-listing letter of 10th November 2022 - Petitioner is de-listed for nine months from the list of approved vendors for the manufacture and supply of jointless hard Drawn Grooved Copper contact wires or HDGC wires - HELD THAT:- There is here a procedural irregularity in the absence of cogent reasons, the failure to take into account relevant material and the reliance on extraneous or immaterial factors, that meets the Wednesbury unreasonableness standard. As to proportionality, nowhere in the impugned order we find a justification for a de-listing for nine months. It can only be presumed that it was less than 12 months because someone might have described that as a blacklisting, and hence completely illegal. But that still does not answer why it should be this particular period. It is impossible to sustain the impugned order at Exhibit "A" - petition allowed.
