Abstract

This commentary is to analyse the Supreme Court’s decision in Confederation of Real Estate Developers of India (CREDAI) v. Vanashakti and Another . This case represents a significant turning point in India’s environmental jurisprudence; it represents significant judicial intervention especially concerning the soundness of ex post facto environmental clearance (ECs). Delivered on November 18, 2025, by a three-judge bench led by Chief Justice B.R. Gavai (with Justice K.V. Chandran concurring and Justice Ujjal Bhuyan dissenting in part), the judgement recalls its earlier ruling in Vanashakti v. Union of India (hereinafter “JUR”), dated May 16, 2025.
