Case History
Summary of Eastern Coalfields Ltd. v. Nirmal Sengupta (C.A. No. 010240/2003) The Supreme Court dismissed Eastern Coalfields Ltd.'s appeal on April 21, 2009, upholding the High Court's order granting employee Nirmal Sengupta monetary benefits following his 2003 retirement. The Court found the High Court's decision just, noting that the company had denied Sengupta benefits from a 1981 Industrial Tribunal award awarding him Technical Grade 'A' for approximately 16 years. Since Sengupta had retired, he was entitled only to monetary compensation (pay difference and retirement benefits) rather than promotional relief to higher executive cadres. The question of law was left open. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
