SRIKANTHA S.M. vs M/S. BHARATH EARTH MOVERS LTD.

The Supreme Court held that the acceptance of resignation by the appellant on January 4, 1993, was valid, despite the subsequent withdrawal on January 8, 1993, as the resignation was effective immediately. The Court emphasized that once the resignation was accepted, the employer was not obligated to continue the employee's service. The Court upheld the High Court's decision, affirming that no illegality was committed by the Company in not allowing the appellant to work post-resignation acceptance.
