Big win for VI as SC allows govt to revisit full AGR dues

The Supreme Court on Monday cleared the air over the scope of its earlier order in the adjusted gross revenue (AGR) case, affirming that the government is free to comprehensively reassess and reconcile all AGR dues of Vodafone Idea up to the financial year 2016–17. The clarification effectively ends days of confusion over whether the relief extended to the entire dues or only the additional Rs 9,449-crore demand raised by the department of telecommunications (DoT).
