Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the dismissal of an appeal under Section 30(1)(a) of the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1923, for lack of a specific Certificate was improper, as the appellant had deposited the awarded amount and provided proof of such deposit. The Court established that in the absence of a specified form of Certificate, substantial compliance with Section 30 is sufficient. Consequently, the Court set aside the High Court's order and directed it to hear the appeal on its merits.
