On September 19, 2025, the Supreme Court of India issued a procedural yet pivotal adjournment in the long-festering Adjusted Gross Revenue (AGR) dispute involving Vodafone Idea Limited, postponing the hearing on the telecom operator’s curative petition to September 26. This deferral, sought by Solicitor General Tushar Mehta on behalf of the Centre, comes amid a fresh flashpoint: the Department of Telecommunications’ (DoT) demand for an additional ₹9,450 crore in AGR dues, which Vodafone Idea vehemently contests as erroneous and beyond the apex court’s 2019 ruling.
