casestatus.in Summary

Summary: In this ESI Act case, Virgilio Velho (employer) challenged an ESI demand notice under Section 45-A. The ESI Court found the workers were employees of trading concerns, not Velho's employees. The High Court improperly interfered with this factual finding on appeal under Section 82, which permits only appeals involving substantial questions of law. The Supreme Court allowed the appeal on 21/04/2010, set aside the High Court's judgments, and restored the ESI Court's order, holding the High Court lacked jurisdiction to overturn factual findings. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
