In Brief
Haryana Suraj Maltings Ltd challenged the High Court's order that reinstated an employee with 50% back wages after finding his termination illegal. The appellant argued the High Court should have remanded the case to the Labour Court for fresh consideration, particularly given evidence that the employee had worked 240 days annually. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, holding that remand was unnecessary. Once the High Court finds termination illegal and orders reinstatement with specified back wages, no further remand is required, provided the High Court's approach is legally sound.
