    Summary The Bombay High Court (Nagpur Bench) dismissed multiple writ petitions filed by Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) challenging an Industrial Court order regarding pension benefits for daily-wage employees. The Court held that employees appointed as daily wagers prior to the introduction of the New Pension Scheme (2004) are entitled to receive pension under the Old Pension Scheme, with their contractual service period counted toward pensionable service, regardless of whether posts were sanctioned. NMC was directed to compute and pay pension arrears by June 30, 2026. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
