|February 01, 2026

The order passed on Friday came in two appeals challenging separate orders passed by the NGT western zone bench at Pune imposing %5 crore environment compensation on a %335-crore project built by M/s Rhythm County in August 2022 and %4.47 crore EC on a 276-crore project developed by M/s Keystone Properties in September 2022.
