ORDER 1. On 28-3-20081, we had passed an order regarding payment of net present value (NPY) accepting the recommendations made by CEC which were more or less acceptable to MoEF. In that order we had also indicated that exemptions from payment of NPY have to be granted in respect of certain c categories. However, it is brought to our notice that certain typographical mistakes had crept in that order as to categories to which such exemptions are to be granted. Therefore, we direct that as regards exemptions from payment of NPY, the last part of that order reading "We are of the view ...
