Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Labour Court's order dated 06.08.2011 under Section 33-C(2) of the Industrial Disputes Act, directing the appellant to pay wages from the date of the Award dated 10.06.1997 until the respondent's reinstatement, was unsustainable. The Court emphasized that the High Court had previously directed the employer to consider the respondent's representation for wages during the intervening period, thus making the Labour Court's quantification unjustified. The appeal was allowed, and the Labour Court's order was set aside.
