Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the High Court's direction for the Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) to consider allotting quarters to ex-employees on a long-term sub-lease basis under the 2002 Scheme. The Court held that the exclusion of ex-employees from the 2002 Scheme was valid, affirming that SAIL had no obligation to include them. The appeal was allowed, setting aside the High Court's order, thereby reinforcing the terms of the 2002 Scheme and the authority of SAIL regarding allotment decisions.
