The Supreme Court on Wednesday (August 6, 2025) gave States and Union Territories a four-year deadline to liquidate long-pending regulatory assets or dues owed to power distribution companies.

The judgment by a Bench headed by Justice P.S. Narasimha was based on petitions filed by three distribution companies supplying electricity to consumers in the national capital, namely BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd., BSES Yamuna Power Ltd and Tata Power Delhi Distribution Limited.
