In Brief
This case concerns whether five employees of Haryana State Small Industries and Export Corporation Limited were surplus and entitled to benefits under the ACP Scheme. The Supreme Court held that since these employees were retained pursuant to earlier Court directions, they did not qualify as surplus and were therefore entitled to ACP benefits. The Court dismissed the appeal but granted two months for compliance, with 18% per annum interest and personal liability for officers if benefits were not disbursed on time.
