Whether a PSU employee can be terminated consequent upon conviction by lower court, pending appeal at High court?

Appeal does not bar the employer from terminating an employee of a PSU, as on conviction a disciplinary authority is bound to dismiss/terminate the employee, as per the conduct and appeal rules of the organisation. However, if you are exonerated by the appellate court, you can be reinstated on your service with the intervening period to be treated as duty under certain conditions.
So, defend your appeal case effectively.

Yes, if no stay on termination by court.

Naturally, in criminal case, the PSU was not made party to the case. So, the question of stay on termination does not arise, unless relief sought earlier and duly debated as against the provisions of the existing statutory rules of the Government of India, as applicable on PSUs also. The Disciplinary Authority is bound to terminate services in case of conviction, as per the provisions of the Discipline Rules.
