Supreme Court Adjourns Hearing Of Contempt Notice To Anil Ambani On Ericsson’s Plea Till Feb. 13
Supreme Court orders Anil Ambani to be present for the contempt plea hearings on Feb. 13 as well.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday adjourned the hearing on a contempt notice issued to Reliance Communication Ltd. Chairman Anil Dhirubhai Ambani and others on a plea filed by Ericsson India for allegedly not clearing its Rs 550-crore dues.
The matter will now be heard tomorrow due to paucity of time and assembling of a special bench in the post lunch session.
Ambani, Reliance Telecom Ltd. Chairman Satish Seth and Reliance Infratel Ltd. Chairperson Chhaya Virani appeared before a bench of Justices RF Nariman and Vineet Saran in pursuance to the contempt notice issued against them.
