Case Summary: WP/752/2024 - Nivrati Ramrao Gavali v. State of Maharashtra The Bombay High Court (Aurangabad Bench) allowed the writ petition filed by Nivrati Ramrao Gavali, directing the State and Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Agriculture University to refund Rs. 1,39,398/- with interest and quashing recovery orders dated 19.09.2014 and 19.09.2015. The court held that recoveries from Class III and Class IV service employees where payments were mistakenly made in excess of entitlement are impermissible under Supreme Court precedent in *Jogeshwar Sahoo v. District Judge, Cuttack*, and rejected the University's reliance on *Jagdev Singh* as inapplicable to these facts. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
