Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of superannuation age under the Central Bank of India Service Regulations, 1991, and the implications of amalgamation of banks. The Court held that the age of superannuation for the respondent, who was appointed in the Gauhati Bank and later merged into the appellant Bank, was correctly determined at 58 years as per the applicable regulations. The Court upheld the High Court's decision that the respondent was not entitled to continue until 60 years of age, affirming the dismissal of his writ petition.
