A bench of justices G S Singhvi and A K Ganguly (since

retired), on February 2, 2012, had cancelled the 122 2G licences holding as unconstitutional the policy of first-come-first-served. Reacting to the dismissal of the curative petition, SSTL in a statment said,"It is unfortunate that the Supreme Court has not admitted the curative petition of SSTL. "The company believes that it has been unfairly penalised in the February 2, 2012 order by the Supreme Court. While SSTL remains committed to its operations, however, it would be up to the shareholders to decide the go forward strategy of the company."
