Case History
Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed A.K. Soumini's appeal against State Bank of Travancore, rejecting her claim for arrears of salary from 1980 onwards. Though the Court granted her notional promotion to JMG-I with retrospective effect and revised pay scales as a gesture due to prolonged litigation delays, it applied the "no work, no pay" principle to deny back salary, holding that her non-promotion was legally valid under the Bank's promotion policy requiring minimum interview marks, and the promotional relief granted was discretionary rather than a legal right.
