DAYA RAM vs JAIPUR VIDYUT VITRAN NIGAM LTD. . — C.A. No. 134/2004

Case Summary: Daya Ram v. Jaipur Vidyut Vitran Nigam Ltd. Outcome: The Supreme Court partly allowed Daya Ram's appeal on January 9, 2004. The Court permitted him to retain all salary, allowances, and perks received during his extended service period under court orders, but clarified this service cannot be used for pension or other benefit calculations. The Court rejected his other claims regarding his date of birth dispute. No costs awarded. Key Issue: Daya Ram had disputed his date of birth late in his career (claiming 1.10.1947 instead of 16.4.1937), enabling him to continue working past superannuation. The High Court had ordered refund of all compensation received during this extended period. The Supreme Court found the Board had benefited from his services and shared responsibility for the delay, thus allowing him to keep the remuneration earned.
