Case History

    Honourable Mr Justice M.dhandapaniView PDF

    Summary The High Court of Madras dismissed writ petitions filed by Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation against workers seeking permanent status under the Tamil Nadu Industrial Establishments (Conferment of Permanent Status to Workmen) Act, 1981. The court held that since the workers had already been granted permanency in 2006 through an Industrial Disputes Act settlement and accepted this status without objection for 15+ years, they cannot later claim backdated permanent status from an earlier date. The court found the workers bound by the settlement terms and ruled their delayed claim (raised in 2023) was barred by acquiescence and the binding nature of the prior agreement. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
