Labour law

WE HAD PAID DA AS FOR PERIOD 2012-13 AS Rs.1920 BUT AS PER KARNATAKA MINIMUM WAGE NOTIFICATION DA IS RS.816. FOR THE PERIOD 2013-14 THE KARNATAKA MINIMUM WAGE NOTIFICATION DA IS Rs.1358

THE QUERY IS THAT
1.CAN WE BRING DOWN THE MINIMUM WAGES DA AS PER THE PRESENT NOTIFICATION
2. SINCE WE ARE PAYING ABOVE MINIMUM WAGES RATE THE DIFFERENCE (1358-816=542)HIKE IS IT MANDATORY TO BE PAID WITH THE PRESENT DA i,e (1920+542)

KINDLY REFER US ANY JUDGMENTS ON THE ABOVE ISSUE

Undecided appeal

Disciplinary authority passed order in May 1999. I filed appeal against the order in June 1999. There were two cases by CBI in which I am acquitted in year 2000 & 2008. Promotions allowed after last judgement in 2008 of CBI case. However the appeal filed in 1999 June is not decided by my bank. i reminded severally to bank to decide the appeal. I retired in August, 2012.

After retirement what are the implications of above facts if I file a petition against bank?

Discharge of a direct recruitee by retaining his juniors?

Whether a direct recruitee appointed under new rules can be discharged from service (or reverted to his earlier post) on the ground that the vacancy to which he was appointed arose under old rules, that too by retaining his junior recruitees who were appointed under the very same new rules citing the reason that the vacancies to which the juniors were appointed arose after the new rules came into force.

Since from the beginning of recruitment process, there was no bifurcation of old or new vacancies.

It was only after the Court in a WP (to which i'm not a party and my recruitment is not questioned in this WP or anywhere else) directed to redo the promotions which were impugned therein (not direct recruitments) as per the old and new vacancies, the State has taken this action of discharging/reverting a direct recruitee who has been appointed to the old vacancy under new rules, that too by retaining his juniors.

Is this action of the state is proper?

what are the case laws in support of my case.
Now, I have challenged the same in WP and obtained stay of the order of reversion/relegation to my earlier post?

Kindly suggest me with case laws.

Directors living abroad

Dear Sir,
I have filed a case in labour court on my company management and got the judgment on my favor in last year. The company closed the shutters and left to USA.

The orders and show cause notice were served through email to the directors of the company through Assistant Commissioner of Labour – III email id ( earlier the company directors responded for the labour court notices through email only as RPAD was returned un-served ).

One of the director responded through email from the company official ID below:

To the Honorable Assistant Commissioner of Labour -
Circle / Ward III, Hyderabad AP

Dear Sir,
We will respond to this E-Mail Notification in writing either as a response back to this email that we received or as Registered Delivery to your offices.

However, since I am on travel currently and especially as we do not live in India, please grant us permission to submit our response to the show cause notice before the 15th of November 2012 (30 days from the date of receipt of this notification).

*****

Till then the company not responded further and the labour court filed a case at “ Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Nampally” for further recovery of unpaid wages.

Last month Metropolitan Magistrate ordered for issue of Summons to the Directors of the company. The summons were sent through RPAD and returned un-served. Again Magistrate ordered for fresh summons in this month.

The summons/Notices were sent through RPAD to their permanent address in Hyderabad ( As per the address in their Pass-port )

The first and second summons were also sent through email from “ Assistant commissioner of Labour – III” email id and got served to their respective official and personnel email id’s ( Not bounced ).

My question is whether Metropolitan Magistrate will accept the Legality of the email served by the Assistant commissioner of Labour – III., if not accepted by the Metropolitan court , how the summons to be served who are living in abroad.

Please guide me regarding as my case was posted to 23rd of this month

Whether appeal challenging an award passed by labour court be filed in indl tribunal or high court

Dear experts,

An illegally terminated workman seeking reinstatement with full backwages got an award in his favour but of only 18 month salary after a litigation of 5 years as compensation only despite all the issues were passed in his favour.

He wants to challenge that i.e. he needs reinstatement and full backwages by stating that learned judge was wrong in his judgment where he passed the judgement of compensation on only one ground i.e. "prolonged litigation of 5 year" whereas workman was not responsible for judicial process which usually takes minimum 4 to 5 years in labour cases.

The workman have also came to know from his old working colleagues that management is also in process of challenging the award.

My question to experts is

1) who can file the challenge first i.e. workman or management and

2) If workman file it secondly will he lose his claim of reinstatement with full backwages and

3)where to file i.e. whether in Industrial Tribunal first or directly in HIgh Court and

4) what is the time limit to file the challenge?
