New Okhla Industrial Development ... vs B.D. Singhal

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of the retrospective application of the age of superannuation for employees of the New Okhla Industrial Development Authority. The court held that the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction by directing retrospective effect to the enhancement of the age of superannuation, which was intended to be prospective. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order, affirming the government's decision to apply the change prospectively only.
