KARAN SINGH vs M/S EXECUTIVE ENGG.HARYANA MKT.BOARD

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 highly belated, as the appellant filed the claim six years after the termination of services without any proof of continuous employment for 240 days, thus violating Section 25-F of the Act. The Court emphasized that while no specific limitation period is prescribed, it would be inequitable to reopen a closed matter after such a delay.
