Summary: CP/100208/2026 - BDK Valves Private Limited v. Ningappa Budappa Kubyal Court Decision: The High Court of Karnataka, Dharwad Bench dismissed the petition and 199 connected petitions filed by BDK Valves Private Limited. Key Facts: BDK Valves terminated 163 workers on 27.11.2024 for alleged grave misconduct related to participation in an illegal strike. The workers filed industrial disputes before the Labour Court, Hubballi under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The company sought transfer of all cases to newly-constituted Industrial Tribunals under the Industrial Relations Code, 2020. Court's Reasoning: Justice B. Muralidhara Pai held that although the Industrial Disputes Act was repealed effective 21.11.2025, Central Government clarifications issued on 08.12.2025 and 02.02.2026 permit existing Labour Courts to continue functioning until corresponding tribunals under the Code are established. The company cannot use CPC Section 24 to transfer cases when no tribunal exists yet, and statutory transfer procedures under Section 92 of the Code—not constitutional articles—govern jurisdictional transfers. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
