    Summary: WA/126/2026 - UCO Bank v. Kandarpa Kumar Kalita The Gauhati High Court dismissed UCO Bank's appeal, upholding the Single Judge's decision to set aside the dismissal of employee Kandarpa Kumar Kalita. The court found that the disciplinary authority's second show-cause notice was fatally flawed because it stated the authority "concurred" with the enquiry officer's findings, demonstrating prejudgment rather than genuine consideration of the employee's response. Since Kalita had since attained superannuation age, physical reinstatement was denied, but the court awarded all notional benefits including seniority. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
