The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash the Labour Court's award regarding the termination of Sudarshan Rajpoot under the U.P. Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The Court ruled that the appellant was entitled to consolidated damages equivalent to retrenchment compensation from the date of engagement until disengagement, as no formal termination order was served.
