U.T. CHANDIGARH vs GURCHARAN SINGH

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the pay fixation of Gurcharan Singh, a re-employed ex-serviceman, under the Central Civil Services (Fixation of Pay of Re-employed Pensioners) Orders, 1986. The Court ruled that the employer's rectification of the pay fixation was valid as it was based on a mistake identified post-retirement. The appeal by the Union Territory of Chandigarh was dismissed, affirming the High Court's order that favored the employee's claim for proper pay fixation.
