Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Bombay High Court regarding the reinstatement of the respondent teacher, confirming that his appointment was against a permanent vacancy and that he was deemed to have completed his probation period. The Court found no perversity in the lower tribunals' findings and thus declined to interfere under Article 136 of the Constitution. However, it modified the order on back wages, granting the respondent 50% of the back wages instead of full wages due to his non-service during the period.
