    Case Summary: WPA/831/2026 The High Court at Calcutta granted the petitioner's writ petition, holding that he was entitled to interest on delayed gratuity and arrear pension payments. The petitioner, an Assistant Teacher retired on February 29, 2020, but received his gratuity and arrear pension only on April 2, 2021, despite the pension order being issued on March 10, 2021. The court directed the state authorities to disburse interest at 8% per annum (rather than the requested 18%) from the date following retirement until actual payment, within six weeks, finding that delay cannot defeat the petitioner's valuable right. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
