SC defers hearing on Reliance gas row till Oct 20
Country's richest brothers locked in dispute over gas-supply agreement.

Mumbai: The Supreme Court hearing in the gas dispute case between Reliance Industries and Reliance Natural Resources will take place on October 20, according to a spokesman for Reliance Industries, after previously being set for September 1.

No reason for the change in schedule was immediately available.

A source with Reliance Natural Resources also said the case would now be heard on October 20. The person declined to be identified by name.

On July 20, Supreme Court had said it would consider on September 1 the dispute between Reliance Industries and Reliance Natural Resources, and the Indian government's attempt to step in.

Top Indian conglomerate Reliance Industries, headed by Mukesh Ambani, and Reliance Natural, led by estranged brother Anil, have been fighting over terms of a gas-supply agreement struck when the Reliance empire was split in 2005.

In June, the Bombay High Court had ruled that Reliance Industries should supply gas to Reliance Natural at $2.34 per million metric British thermal unit, nearly half the $4.20 price in an interim court order in January.
