    Summary of WP(C)/1380/2026 — Prashank Kumar v. Indian Oil Corporation Ltd Decision: The Gauhati High Court partially allowed the petition. It rejected the petitioner's challenge to appointments of unreserved category candidates (respondents 6 & 7) but granted him an additional one-year age relaxation beyond OBC benefits for the Junior Engineering Assistant position. The court directed IOCL to consider his candidature for skill/proficiency testing based on merit, with appointment possible upon successful qualification, to be completed within three months. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
