Summary of C.A. No. 002132/2011 The Supreme Court allowed Punjab National Bank's appeal, overturning the High Court's decision that granted Dharam Pal Singh pension rights after voluntary retirement at age 40. The Court held that pension eligibility requires 15 years of qualifying service under PNB regulations, not age alone. However, the Court directed the Bank to pay Singh the withheld Bank's Provident Fund contribution plus 10% simple interest within six weeks, as he was entitled to this amount at retirement.
