Supreme Court Rejects Rapido's Plea Against Maharashtra Government's Refusal To Grant Bike-Taxi Aggregator License

Live Law  

The Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to entertain Rapido's plea against the Maharashtra government's refusal to grant two-wheeler bike taxi aggregator license to the company on the ground that the petitioner was at liberty to pursue alternative remedy before the Bombay High Court. Thus, the bench comprising Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, Justice PS Narasimha, and Justice JB Pardiwala gave the company liberty to approach the Bombay High Court challenging the notification of the State government dated January 19, 2023 which had prohibited the use of non-transport vehicles for aggregation and carpooling. The bench stated that the correctness of order of RTO, Pune which had rejected Rapido's plea for licence on 21 December 2022 would stand subsumed by the wider decision of State government. Today, the bench noted– "The correctness of RTO's order rejecting the application for license is now overshadowed by the subsequent decision of the state government arising out of its notification dated 19th January 2023.
