given green light. NEW DELHI: Economic Times 10th May - The Supreme Court dismissed a petition challenging the $8.5-billion Cairn-Vedanta deal, and ruled that a commercial decision cannot be regarded as mala fide or driven by ulterior motives merely on the grounds that it looks wrong in hindsight. Significantly, the court also said it cannot grant relief by merely relying on a CAG report. While the national auditor is indisputably an independent constitutional functionary, it is equally important to consider the comments of the ministry, the court said. The Cairn-Vedanta deal was challenged in a PIL for allegedly causing state-owned ONG a loss of Rs 1 lakh crore. The court said it won't interfere in commercial decision unless it was mala fide or violated statutes. "We are of the view that on facts, as well as on law, the ONGC and the government of India have taken a prudent commercial and economic decision in public interest. We are not prepared to say that the decision is mala fide or actuated by any extraneous or irrelevant considerations or improper motive." The top court said it cannot sit on judgement over a "commercial or business decision taken by parties to the agreement, after evaluating and assessing its monetary and financial implications, unless the decision is in clear violation of any statutory provisions or perverse or for extraneous considerations or improper motives."
