ARUN CYRIL vs SWIGGY LIMITED — 7793/2024

Summary: The court rejected Swiggy Limited's application to dismiss the plaint filed by Mr. Arun Cyril challenging his employment termination dated August 16, 2024, and the subsequent ESOP (Employee Stock Option Plan) expiration notice. The plaintiff sought a declaration that both notices were illegal and directions to allow exercise of vested stock options. The court held that whether the employment contract is enforceable and whether the termination complies with procedural requirements are matters requiring a full trial, and thus the plaint cannot be summarily rejected at the threshold stage under Order VII Rule 11 CPC.
