Headnote | Industrial Dispute -State Electricity Board taking over from appellant company on the expiry of license -Award framing scheme for payment of gratuity to employees- If justified Central Provinces and Berar Industrial Disputes Settlement Act, 1947 (C. P. and Berar Act XXIII of 1947), s. 38 (a). The appellant company was a licensee for supplying electricity. The State Electricity Board had by a notice intimated its intention to purchase the appellant's undertaking on the expiry of its license. Two days prior to the expiry of the license the Indu1trial Court at Nagpur framed a scheme for payment of gratuity to the employees of the appellant company with effect from the date of the order. On application by the appellant company under Art. 227 of the Constitution the High Court of Nagpur set aside the Industrial Court's order and remanded the matter for the reconsideration. After remand the Industrial Court came to the conclusion that the appellant company was in a position to pay gratuity and made a fresh award framing a scheme for payment of gratuity to its employees at the rate of month's average wage. This award was made more than a year after the company had closed its business. The present appeal is by way of special leave granted by this Court. The main contention in the appeal was that the Tribunal was not justified in imposing on the company a gratuity scheme at a time when it had already ceased to carry on its business. |
