Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to grant revised pay scales to the original writ petitioners, who were employees of the Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation. The court found that the employees were entitled to a basic pay of Rs. 9,745 per month from the date of their appointment, affirming the earlier judgment that mandated the payment of revised pay scales. The appeal by the corporation was dismissed, reinforcing the employees' rights to fair compensation.
