Calcutta State Transport Corporation vs Ashit Chakraborty

The Supreme Court examined the validity of pension and retirement benefits provided to employees of the Calcutta State Transport Corporation, focusing on the applicability of the 1990 Regulations framed under Section 45 of the Road Transport Corporation Act, 1950. The Court upheld the retrospective effect of these regulations, which mandated pension benefits from 1.4.1984, and considered whether the employees' rights to such benefits were protected under existing legal provisions. The Court ultimately dismissed the appeal, affirming the earlier judgments that upheld the employees' entitlement to retirement benefits under the 1990 Regulations.
