    CASE SUMMARY: WP/7320/2019 - Anil Sopan Koli v. M/s. Brihans Maharashtra Sugar The Bombay High Court partially allowed the petitioner's writ petition, finding the Labour Court's termination decision legally unsustainable. While the Labour Court had correctly held the dismissal disproportionate and illegal, it improperly denied reinstatement based on alleged "loss of confidence"—a doctrine inapplicable to a driver-cum-peon position lacking fiduciary responsibilities. The court ordered reinstatement with service continuity but denied back wages, considering the petitioner's admitted intermittent employment post-termination and absence of precise wage calculations. The court directed reinstatement within 8 weeks at the Pune office or equivalent establishment, with the ₹50,000 previously withdrawn adjusted against future salary.
