Orders
Summary of C.A. No. 006666/2008 (Tata Motors Ltd. v. I. Khan) Supreme Court allowed Tata Motors' appeal on November 14, 2008, setting aside the Labour Court Award and High Court orders that directed the employee's reinstatement with back wages (reduced to 50%). The Court found that the employee's unexplained 5-year unauthorized absence constituted gross misconduct warranting termination, rejecting the lower courts' view that the punishment was disproportionate. No costs awarded. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
