Case History
Summary of W.P.(C) No. 000122/1998 The Supreme Court dismissed the writ petition filed by IDPL officers and supervisors seeking pay revision and interim relief installments from January 1, 1996 onwards. The Court held that employees of sick public sector enterprises cannot claim pay revision when the company lacks financial capacity to pay, as economic viability of the employer is a crucial factor in wage fixation. Since IDPL was a BIFR-registered sick unit with accumulated losses exceeding ₹600 crores and non-functional operations, and the petitioners had already opted for Voluntary Retirement Scheme, the petition had no merit.
