STATE BANK OF BIKANER & JAIPUR vs SHRI HARI HAR NATH BHARGAVA

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Central Government Labour Court under Section 33-C(2) of the Industrial Disputes Act, affirming that the respondent was entitled to a supervisory allowance as per the Sastry Award, even for periods when he was not actively performing supervisory duties. The Court clarified that the lack of a statutory limitation period for such applications does not render stale claims inadmissible. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the respondent's entitlement to the allowance for the specified period.
