The court directed the ministry to take a final decision by Jan 10.

Lavasa can, however, challenge the final decision of the ministry if it is aggrieved by it, the court said.

The ministry Nov 25 slapped a show-cause notice on the company because it had allegedly failed to secure necessary environmental clearances before starting work on its 5,000-plus hectare project coming up in Mulshi sub-district of Pune district, around 200 km from Mumbai.
