M/S. U.P.S.R.T.C vs Imtiaz Hussain

The Supreme Court held that the modification of the original award by the labour court under Section 6(6) of the Uttar Pradesh Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 was beyond its scope, as this section only permits correction of clerical or arithmetical mistakes. The Court found that the High Court failed to address this critical issue when it upheld the labour court's decision to award 50% back wages with interest. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order, emphasizing the limitations of Section 6(6) and the need for adherence to statutory provisions.
