A permit condition requiring carriage at Government-fixed rates was also upheld because it operated after the quasi-judicial decision to grant the permit, not as part of that decision. Once the rates were notified, acceptance of those rates became an automatic condition under the permit framework, leaving no discretion to the transport authority on that aspect.
