AMOL BALASAHEB TAPKIR vs PUNE MUNICIPAL CORPORATION PMC BUILDING — WP/15167/2024

Summary of WP/15167/2024 (Amol Balasaheb Tapkir v. Pune Municipal Corporation) The High Court of Bombay quashed the Labour Court's judgment rejecting the petitioner's industrial dispute claim. The court declared that the 19 March 2011 termination was illegal because it violated a binding interim order (30 July 2010) directing continuation until duly selected candidates joined. The court ordered reinstatement with continuity for limited retiral benefits only—explicitly excluding permanency—and awarded 25% lump-sum compensation instead of full back wages, recognizing the petitioners' subsequent employment elsewhere.
