Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's writ petition challenging the decision of the Industrial Tribunal under Section 10(1) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The Court ruled that the claim was belated as the appellant failed to provide evidence of continuous employment for 240 days and did not raise the demand notice until six years after termination. The Court emphasized that while no limitation is prescribed, it would be inequitable to reopen the matter after such a delay, affirming the High Court's decision.
