Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the Division Bench of the High Court erred in remitting the matter back to the Single Judge instead of deciding the correctness of the Single Judge's judgment directly. The Court emphasized that the Division Bench should have exercised its jurisdiction to consider the merits of the appeal under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. Consequently, the Court ordered the appointment of the appellant as a Commercial Tax Inspector, effective from 01.08.2018, to ensure justice while clarifying that this decision should not set a precedent.
