BANK OF BARODA vs S.K. KOOL (D) THR LRS

The Supreme Court upheld the Industrial Tribunal's award granting superannuation benefits to S.K. Kool, who was removed from service by Bank of Baroda. The Court interpreted the disciplinary authority's order, emphasizing that removal from service should not result in forfeiture of pensionary benefits as per the terms 'as would be due otherwise'. The Court held that the denial of pension and leave encashment was neither legal nor justified, affirming the Tribunal's decision to award all termination benefits to the employee.
