Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Labour Court's decision that the termination of the respondent's services as a Trainee Technician violated Section 25F of the Industrial Disputes Act, which mandates prior notice and compensation for retrenchment. The Court clarified that the respondent, despite being a probationer, was entitled to the protections under the Act due to his completion of 240 days of service. The appeal by the appellant was dismissed, affirming the reinstatement of the respondent with back wages.
