The Supreme Court held that the petitioner, a temporary employee of the State Bank of Mysore, was not entitled to absorption as a permanent employee under the criteria of having worked 240 days in a calendar year as per the bank's policy. The Court emphasized that the calculation of 240 days must be based on the calendar year from January 1 to December 31, and since the petitioner did not meet this requirement, the High Court's dismissal of his claim was upheld.
