    CMP(M) No. 333/2026 Summary The High Court of Himachal Pradesh dismissed Municipal Corporation Shimla's appeals challenging orders directing consideration of contractual employees' cases for pension benefits under the precedent established in Sheela Devi v. State of H.P. (2019). The court rejected the condonation of delay applications (filed 1-1.5 years late), finding no sufficient cause and noting that the Supreme Court had upheld the Sheela Devi judgment, which mandates counting contractual service periods toward qualifying service for pension upon regularization after approximately 10 years. The Single Judge's orders directing such consideration were affirmed as legally sound, with a six-week grace period granted for Municipal Corporation's reconsideration. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
