Case Summary: A.K. Srivastava v. National Insurance Co. (1998) The Supreme Court dismissed Ashok Kumar Srivastava's appeal challenging his termination from probationary employment. The Court held that Srivastava's employment contract explicitly provided for automatic termination if he failed to achieve premium targets or secure promotion to Grade I Inspector within the probationary period. Since no promotion letter was issued before the probationary period expired, his termination was valid and lawful. The Court also rejected arguments regarding maintainability, applying the doctrine of res judicata to issues already decided in prior writ proceedings.
