Tariff Order: TRAI and Star India file caveats in Supreme Court
The caveats are live for 90 days from the date of filing, which is also the time both parties have to appeal in the Supreme Court against the Madras High Court order.
Both the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India and Star India Private Ltd have submitted caveats in the Supreme Court of India regarding the former’s tariff order, which was earlier challenged in the Madras High Court.
While Star India filed the caveat on May 28, 2018, TRAI filed it on May 25, 2018.
A caveat is a notice given by a person, informing a court that another person may file a suit or application against him and that the court must give the caveator (person filing the caveat) a fair hearing before deciding any matter brought before it in the relevant case.

The Madras High Court on May 23 pronounced its much-awaited judgment on the TRAI tariff order relating to the pricing and packaging of TV channels offered in a bouquet. The court had approved all proposals of the TRAI order, except the one that puts a cap of 15 per cent on the discount on the maximum retail price of a bouquet.
