REGIONAL DIR.E.S.I CORP.. vs SOUMITRA SENGUPTA . — C.A. No. 4611/2013

Summary The Supreme Court dismissed the ESIC's appeal but partially modified the High Court's order regarding Soumitra Sengupta's inter-regional transfer from Maharashtra to Orissa. While the Court acknowledged the transfer was improperly made as Lower Division Clerk (LDC) when Sengupta held Upper Division Clerk (UDC) status, it limited his relief: he receives only notional benefits (seniority restoration and pay refixation, but no monetary benefits) from the original transfer date until his actual 2011 UDC promotion through the LDC examination route. Consequential orders must be passed within three months, with a supernumerary UDC post created if needed to implement this relief.
