Future Retail files caveat in Delhi High Court against any move by Amazon

New Delhi, November 3

Kishore Biyani led-Future Group has filed a caveat before the Delhi High Court requesting it to be heard if any plea is filed by e-commerce major Amazon over its Rs 24,713-crore deal with Mukesh Ambani-led RIL.

Anticipating a move by Amazon, which had got an interim arbitration award in its favour, putting the announced deal on hold, the Future Group firm has moved the Delhi High Court.

“Let no order of any kind be passed of any kind… or any other petition and application, which may be filed by the petitioners/caveatee (Amazon.com NV Investment Holdings LLC) against the respondent/caveator — Future Retail Ltd, without due notice under Section 148A of the code of civil procedure,” the Future Group firm said in its urgent caveat petition.

A caveat is filed by a litigant in high courts and in the Supreme Court to ensure that no adverse order is passed against the party without it being heard. — PTI
