casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: L. Rajaiah v. Inspector General of Registration & Stamps The Supreme Court dismissed L. Rajaiah's appeal challenging his denial of promotion to Senior Assistant in 1991. Although stoppage of increment is not itself a promotion penalty, the court held that Rajaiah remained ineligible for promotion consideration because he was undergoing disciplinary punishment during the relevant period, and fitness is a mandatory criterion under promotion rules based on seniority-cum-fitness. However, the court entitled him to be considered for promotion after March 1, 1994, when his punishment period ended.
