BOMBAY GAS CO. LTD vs GOPAL BHIVA & ORS.

The Supreme Court ruled on the interpretation of Section 33C(2) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, affirming that the Labour Court has jurisdiction to compute benefits under an award and that such applications are not subject to limitation. The Court held that the requirement for workers to show actual work on Sundays was not necessary; rather, the test was whether they could have been required to work. The Court dismissed the appellant's objections regarding jurisdiction and timeliness, emphasizing the plain language of the statute and the need to protect workers' rights.
