Shri Purushaindra Kaurav, learned Advocate General for respondents prays for time to seek instructions and apprise the Court about their stand on grant of rebate for above mentioned two periods if the petitioner offers to pay remaining outstanding amount with interest @ 24% p.a. considering that fresh tender has not yet been issued in the light of third proviso to Clause 5.1 of the agreement.
