https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=466629 Judicial restraint governs review of tender awards: courts will not set aside a procurement authority's technical and commercial evaluation absent irrationality, arbitrariness or mala fides. Applying that principle, the court assessed requirements for power of attorney/board authorization, the permissibility of considering both online and hard-copy submissions where tender clauses conflicted, the nature of pledged TDR as earnest money, and alleged technical non-conformities. The Tender Evaluation Committee found respondent technically responsive and petitioner non-responsive; petitioner failed to plead impossibility or provide cogent material showing arbitrariness. Result: writ petition dismissed and contract award to respondent upheld. en-us Fri, 22 Jun 2018 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 13 Feb 2026 11:47:48 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=466629 Judicial restraint governs review of tender awards: courts will not set aside a procurement authority's technical and commercial evaluation absent irrationality, arbitrariness or mala fides.
