Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the locus standi of a registered trade union to apply for modification of a standing order regarding the retirement age of employees under the Maharashtra Industrial Relations Act, 1946. The court found that the union had the right to seek such modification based on prior agreements that extended the retirement age from 55 to 58 years. The appeal was allowed, affirming the union's standing in the matter.
