It alleged that the high court erred in deciding the three terms as to quantity, tenure and price of gas supply to power plants of RNRL affiliate.






The High Court on June 15 had asked RIL to honour a 2005 family agreement to supply 28 million cubic meters per day of gas from its Krishna-Godavari basin fields to RNRL at USD 2.34 per mmBtu for 17 years from the date of setting up of the Dadri power plant.
