Case brief
What is this about?
TANGEDCO pension revision writ petition; Madurai Bench Madras High Court W.P.(MD).No.11488 of 2019; K. Rajasekar J.; Article 226 certiorarified mandamus; Section 12(3) Settlement Industrial Disputes Act; pay revision effective 01.12.2007; superannuation 30.11.2007; no provision to extend pay revision to pre-implementation retirees; TNEB Board Proceedings (Permanent) B.P.(Ch) No.223 dated 21.11.2009; 40% pension increase for retirees; Internal Audit Chennai pension revision Rs. 6,694/- to Rs.10,085/-; counter-affidavit; grievance addressed; writ disposed, no order as to costs.
What did the court decide?
There is no provision for extending the revision of pay (implemented on 01.12.2007 under the Section 12(3) Settlement) to those who retired prior to its implementation date, i.e., 01.12.2007; the petitioner having superannuated on 30.11.2007 therefore falls outside that pay revision.
