Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Delhi High Court and the Central Administrative Tribunal, which denied the appellants' claim for benefits under the Revised Pay Rules, 2008, as per the 6th Pay Commission Report, effective from 1st January 2006. The Court found that the appellants, employed under the Compulsory Saving Scheme Deposits Fund of the Special Frontier Force, were not entitled to the same pay scale benefits as other government employees. The judgment reinforces the principle that specific provisions of pay scales can be selectively applied based on the nature of employment and funding sources.
