In Brief
Nandkishore Ahirrao was dismissed from his job at Kosan Industries for allegedly causing work disruption. The Labour Court found the dismissal improper but awarded only 25% back wages. The High Court struck down even this partial award. The Supreme Court reversed the High Court, holding that the Labour Court's 25% back wages award was fair and proper and should not have been deleted. The Court restored the award and directed payment of retiral dues plus 25% back wages within three months, affirming the appellant's entitlement to notional service continuity."
