The Bombay High Court has upheld the Maharashtra State Housing Department's award of the Dharavi slum rehabilitation project to Adani Properties Pvt. Ltd, dismissing a legal challenge from Dubai's Seclink Technology Corp. The ruling clears the way for the Gautam Adani-promoted entity to lead the redevelopment of the 259-hectare slum in central Mumbai, one of Asia's largest.
Seclink, which lost the bid to Adani in 2022, argued its ₹7,200 crore offer was not only higher but more deserving than Adani's ₹5,069 crore bid. It also alleged that the state government's decision to cancel the earlier tender and issue a fresh one was biased, violating the principles of natural justice.
Seclink's lawyer told Mint it will challenge the order in the Supreme Court.
