In Brief
Godrej and Boyce Manufacturing Company Limited challenged a High Court judgment that upheld an Industrial Court's intervention in an employee transfer order. The petitioner argued that transferability is a standard condition of service and that Industrial Courts should not interfere with legitimate transfer decisions by employers. The Supreme Court, finding merit in this submission at the admission stage, granted a stay of the High Court's judgment pending full hearing of the petition, while directing notice to the respondent to be returned within six weeks."
