कंपनी ने एक मीडिया बयान में कहा था कि मध्यस्थता न्यायाधिकरण ने रिलायंस इंफ्रास्ट्रक्चर की सहायक कंपनी दिल्ली एयरपोर्ट मेट्रो एक्सप्रेस प्राइवेट लिमिटेड के चार साल पहले परियोजना के लिए अपने रियायत समझौते को समाप्त करने के फैसले को वैध माना था। इसने पुरस्कार से अपने ऋणदाताओं को 1,900 करोड़ रुपये वापस करने का इरादा किया।A three-member tribunal bench, chosen from a DMRC-nominated panel, had unanimously ruled in favour of Reliance Infrastructure after hearing the case for about three-and-a-half years, the statement had said.
