- Disposal
- DISPOSED OFF
Holding
The writ petition is dismissed for default due to the petitioner's non‑appearance and the passage of time.
Summary
Premnath S/o Uttamrao Munde filed a writ petition challenging a communication dated 31 January 2026 that cancelled e‑Auction No. 38553. The petitioner also alleged that e‑Auction No. 559704 had already been issued by Maharashtra Power Generation Company Limited. The petition was not presented on the second call, and the court observed that, owing to the lapse of time, the petition no longer had any surviving cause of action. Consequently, the High Court dismissed the writ petition on the ground of default. The dismissal was recorded by both judges of the bench.
Issues considered
- Whether the writ petition can be entertained despite the petitioner's failure to appear and the alleged lapse of time?

the petition.
4. Writ petition is, therefore, dismissed for default.
