casestatus.in Summary
When exercising appellate jurisdiction under Article 136, the Supreme Court may modify the compensation quantum awarded to workmen by a High Court, enhancing it to a just and equitable amount by taking into account factors such as the length of service rendered and the over-aged status of the workmen. As analyzed on casestatus.in, such modification reflects the court's power to ensure that compensation in industrial disputes is commensurate with the workmen's actual circumstances, even where no other infirmity in the High Court's order is found.
