Case History
Summary of C.A. No. 857/2001 On 22 August 2007, the Supreme Court disposed of the appeal by the Commissioner, Corporation of Chennai against Sakthi Builders. The Court held that under Section 8A of the Tamil Nadu Manual Workers Act, 1982, the contractor had already deposited 0.3% towards the labour welfare fund, and the contractor—not the Corporation—is obligated to pay this amount. The Court deleted the High Court's observations permitting the respondent to file a civil suit against the Corporation for recovery, finding them ill-placed.
