    Case Summary: WP(C) No. 2142/2025 The High Court of Jammu & Kashmir partially allowed the petition, setting aside the recovery order against retired employee Abdul Qayoom Sheikh while permitting pension refixation. The court held that recovery of excess salary from a retired employee is impermissible under Supreme Court precedent, as the employee retired on 30.04.2025 before the recovery order of 09.07.2025 was issued. However, respondents retain the right to refix his pension by excluding the higher pay scale (Rs.5700-10100) that was never confirmed by the Departmental Promotion Committee.
