Orders
The Supreme Court set aside the Andhra Pradesh High Court's dismissal of Hyderabad Industries Ltd's appeals and remitted the matter back for proper factual analysis. The Court found the High Court had abruptly applied the Rajkamal Transport precedent without adequately examining whether workers engaged through contractors and clearing-forwarding agents qualified as "employees" under the ESI Act 1948, or analyzing critical factual issues including supervision, continuity of employment, and labour cost apportionment. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
