2. The case of the petitioners, in brief, is that petitioner No.1 herein is a reputed multinational engineering services company offering engineering and technical services for development projects, including building construction, water infrastructure, and land and urban development. Petitioner No.2 is a company incorporated under the Companies Act, 1956, and is one of the leading consulting firms specializing in highway and bridge design, pavement management solutions, etc. Respondent No.4 issued work orders to the petitioners for organizing several events. The said events were successfully organized by the petitioners, pursuant to which bills were submitted to Respondent Nos.2 and 3. However, the respondents made only part payments, leaving an outstanding amount of Rs.3,88,60,066/- (Rupees Three Crore Eighty-Eight Lakhs Sixty Thousand and Sixty-Six only), apart from
5
applicable GST. The petitioners made several representations requesting the respondents to release the amounts due and payable to them. However, despite such representations, the respondents have not released the outstanding amounts till date. Hence, the present Writ Petition. 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Standing counsel appearing for the 1st respondent. 4. During the course of hearing, learned Standing counsel furnished a copy of the instructions dated 25.09.2026 of the Chair Person & Managing Director of the 1st respondent.

It is further stated that ADCL would require a period of two months to complete the administrative process for release of the admitted amount to the petitioners. 5.
