ssp 1 WP(L) 1749 of 2011 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY ORDINARY ORIGINAL CIVIL JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION (L) NO.1749 OF 2011 Shree Mumbeshwar Seva Sahakari Sansta Ltd. .....Petitioner versus The Municipal Corportion of Gr. Mumbai and Ors. ..... Respondents Mr.Bhavesh Parmar i/by Ms.Sandhya A. Mailgil, for the petitioner. Mrs.P.A.Purandare, for the respondents. CORAM: P.B.MAJMUDAR & R.M.SAVANT, JJ. DATE: 24 th AUGUST, 2011 P.C. 1. The grievance of the petitioner is that by the impugned order dated 10-08-2011, the petitioner has been blacklisted and has not been granted six month’s extension which is granted to the other society. Learned counsel for the Corporation states that in so far as the extension of the existing contract is concerned, it is the discretion of the authority and considering the work of the petitioner, it was decided not to give extension to the petitioner as the original contract was already over. Learned counsel for the Corporation further submits that so far as order of blacklisting is concerned, the same will not be implemented and the petitioner will be given hearing before passing any order regarding ssp 2 WP(L) 1749 of 2011 blacklisting. The order of blacklisting is accordingly set aside and the Corporation is free to pass fresh order after hearing the petitioner and in accordance with law. 2. In so far as the extension of the contract is concerned, in our view, it is not a matter of right as the original contract has come to an end in the month of June 2011. Learned counsel for the Corporation submitted that extension is not given after considering the record of the petitioner and after following the due procedure in this behalf. Though, it is submitted that other societies have been given extension of six months i.e. upto December 2011, whereas the petitioner has not been given such extension, in our view, the petitioner cannot claim extension as a matter of right, therefore, no fault can be found with the said action of the Corporation. 3. The writ petition is disposed of by setting aside the orders in question relating to blacklisting of the petitioner with a direction to the Corporation to pass fresh orders after hearing the petitioner.
