The General Manager, Hmt Machine Tools Ltd. v. the Controlling Authority

What is this about?

Employer's appeals against the Single Judge's order requiring payment of gratuity with interest to retired employees. The employer argued gratuity was accepted in full and final settlement, so no interest was due. The court found the Punjab and Haryana High Court decision relied on unhelpful, since the employer had consented to pay gratuity with interest and sought time. Appeals dismissed.
