New Delhi: SpiceJet has refuted the claims made by KAL Airways and Kalanithi Maran regarding seeking damages of Rs 1,323 crore. The airlines has said that the assertions were not only legally untenable but also regurgitation of previously rejected claims by the Arbitral Tribunal and then the Delhi High Court.
In its statement SpiceJet said, “KAL Airways and Kalanithi Maran initially sought damages of more than Rs.1300 crore during the arbitration proceedings. This claim was thoroughly examined and subsequently rejected by a panel of three retired Supreme Court judges.”
It further said that following this, KAL Airways and Kalanithi Maran appealed to the single-judge Bench of the Delhi High Court, seeking the same amount in damages, which was again rejected by the court.
