Summary: General Manager, U.P. Cooperative Bank Ltd. v. Achchey Lal (C.A. No. 002974/2016) Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the Bank's appeals, setting aside the High Court judgment and Labour Court Award that had found the canteen workers were employees of the Bank entitled to reinstatement with back wages. Key Facts: - U.P. Cooperative Bank's employees formed a Society to run a canteen - The Bank provided infrastructure, subsidies (75% of expenses), and supplies - The Society appointed four workers (respondents) to manage the canteen from the 1980s-1995 - When the Society closed the canteen in 1995 due to insufficient subsidies, workers were terminated - This triggered an industrial dispute Court's Finding: The Supreme Court held that no employer-employee relationship existed between the Bank and the canteen workers. The Bank merely provided facilities and subsidies but had no control or supervision over canteen operations, which were entirely managed by the Society. The workers were employed by the Society, not the Bank. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
