M/S Sheela Joshi & Ors vs Indian Airlines Ltd

The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of writ petitions challenging the Indian Airlines' circular dated 4.5.2006, which enforced strict weight limits for Air Hostesses. The Court found that the weight maintenance condition was a consensual term of the employment contract under Clause 9 of the appointment letter, and the appellants had accepted the earlier circulars and conditions. The Court ruled that the withdrawal of previous relaxations did not violate any legal rights of the appellants, affirming the Division Bench's decision.
