Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Delhi High Court erred in granting a permanent commission to the respondent, as he did not meet the minimum performance criteria of 6.5 and was categorized as A4G3 medically, which were essential for such a commission under the applicable regulations. The Court emphasized that the High Court's conclusions were based on materials beyond the pleadings and failed to properly assess the Union of India's stance regarding the performance criteria. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's judgment, affirming the Union of India's decision to deny the permanent commission.
