    The Bombay High Court set aside the Provident Fund Appellate Tribunal's November 2, 2016 order imposing damages under Section 14B of the EPF Act against Kalpesh Enterprises for delayed contributions, finding the Tribunal improperly relied on a Delhi High Court judgment that the Supreme Court had already overturned. The court remanded the matter to reconsider damages with correct legal principles and factual examination.
