DGM, COMPONENT INDIAN TEL.INDUSTRY vs KAILASH NATH CHATURVEDI .

The Supreme Court held that transfer is an incident of service and set aside the High Court's order that interfered with the transfer of the respondent. The Court allowed the appeal, affirming the validity of the transfer while permitting the respondent to pursue a claim for unpaid salary from February to December 2006, without recognizing the merits of that claim. The judgment emphasizes the non-justiciability of transfer orders in service matters.
