Quick Summary

The Supreme Court has ruled that the experience of a holding company can be considered as the experience of its wholly-owned subsidiaries when bidding for projects. This decision clarifies that a formal consortium or joint venture is not always necessary for such experience to be recognised. The court emphasised that commercial wisdom and a broad interpretation of 'government-owned entity' should prevail, provided there is no perversity or bias.

Court :
Supreme Court of India

Brief :
It a well settled fact that experience of a holding company will be considered as experience of subsidiary or vice-versa. If a holding company has experience in a field in which its subsidiary does not has any experience and subsidiary applies along with his holding company in a project or tender then experience of holding company will be considered as experience of its subsidiary. There is no need to form a consortium or venture.
