Orders
The Calcutta High Court allowed petitioner Joya Sarkar's writ petition, permitting her to deposit the employer's share of Contributory Provident Fund with interest to claim family pension benefits as the widow of a deceased teacher. The court rejected the State's argument that no fresh option could be exercised, holding that once ROPA 1990 option was exercised for revised pay scales, no additional option requirement applies. The court directed authorities to calculate the required deposit amount and process the pension payment order from the date of the husband's superannuation (June 30, 2006). This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
