    Case Summary: WP 5290/2019 Outcome: Writ Petition Dismissed Siemens Ltd.'s petition challenging an Industrial Tribunal's decision was dismissed. The High Court upheld the Tribunal's finding that Siemens employed more than 100 workmen at the time of closure (August 2014), thereby triggering stringent Chapter V-B requirements under the Industrial Disputes Act rather than the simpler Chapter V-A closure procedure Siemens invoked. The court found Siemens deliberately suppressed employee numbers by excluding 28+ staff and indirect workers who qualified as "workmen," and rejected Siemens's burden-of-proof argument, holding that once the union provided evidence, Siemens failed to rebut it with required documentary proof (wages register), justifying an adverse inference. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
