Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the respondent, having received three promotions, was not entitled to the third selection grade under the circular dated 25.1.1992, which stipulates that an employee must not have received three promotions to qualify for such benefits. The Court emphasized the importance of adhering to the criteria set forth in the circular, which aims to ensure fairness in pay scales among employees. The appeal by the appellant was allowed, overturning the High Court's decision that had favored the respondent.
