In the facts and circumstances, we allow the parties to reach settlement uninfluenced by any of the order passed by the Tribunal or this Appellate Tribunal,&#8221; said NCLAT. The Tribunal also gave them additional time to file the affidavit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Post both the appeals &#8216;for orders&#8217; on 13th May, 2019 and earlier date (8th May) fixed stands modified,&#8221; it said. The bench also said: &#8220;In the meantime, if any settlement is reached, any of the party may file affidavit giving the date of settlement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>McDonald&#8217;s and Bakshi in 1995 had signed a partnership agreement to open outlets of the US fast food chain in India. It was for a period of 25 years.<\/p>\n<p>The two partners had formed a 50:50 joint venture &#8212; Connaught Plaza Restaurant Ltd (CPRL) &#8212; which was responsible for outlets of the fast-food chain in the country&#8217;s northern and eastern regions through the franchise route.<\/p>\n<p>In 2017, McDonald&#8217;s terminated CPRL&#8217;s franchise agreement citing non-payment of royalties.<\/p>\n<p>A long-winding legal tussle and battle for control of the business ensued afterwards with Bakshi keeping around 165 McDonald&#8217;s branded outlets operational in northern and eastern regions of the country.<\/p>\n<p>In southern and western regions, McDonald&#8217;s outlets are run by Amit Jatia-led Westlife Development.<\/p>\n<p>In August 2017, McDonald&#8217;s had told the NCLAT that settlement of dispute with its estranged partner Bakshi was not possible.<\/p>\n<p>The tussle started after Bakshi was ousted as the managing director of Connaught Plaza Restaurants (CPRL) in 2013, following which he approached the NCLT, which reinstated him to his position.
