Tata-Mistry case: Supreme Court to hear review plea in open court

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear in open court the review petition filed by the Shapoorji Pallonji group challenging last year's apex court decision that had ruled in the Tata group’s favour. 

The order to hear the review petition was passed by a three-judge Bench of Chief Justice of India NV Ramana, Justice AS Bopanna and Justice V Ramasubramanian, who dissented saying the review is not needed, according to a report by Bar and Bench. 

“The fact that this order has been passed and the Supreme Court has agreed to hear the review petition in open court means they must have found merit in the grounds set out in the Review Petition by the Pallonji group,” said Nirav Shah, Partner, DSK Legal.
