Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's writ appeals against the Bombay High Court's decision regarding his termination as 'Industrial Relations Executive' by Glaxo-SmithKline Pharmaceuticals Ltd. The Court interpreted Clause 17 of the appointment letter, affirming that the company had the right to terminate employment without assigning reasons, provided notice was given. The Court concluded that the termination was lawful and did not violate any statutory provisions, thereby affirming the High Court's ruling.
