Summary: The Supreme Court heard UP Forest Corporation's special leave petition challenging a High Court order (dated 03-02-2026) regarding gratuity payment obligations under the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972. The petitioner's counsel confirmed that gratuity has already been paid and the corporation is contesting only the legal question involved. The Court condoned the delay in filing and issued notice on the substantive question of law, directing the matter to be consolidated with Civil Appeal No. 564 of 2020 for final adjudication.
