What the Court ordered
As we do not propose to go into the individual fact situation applicable to each of the appellants/proforma respondents, we leave it to the authorities to examine each of their cases in the context of the date of the retirement of each of them; work out the amounts payable to them, in the light of modified clause (d) of the order dated 20.02.2025; and release the amounts due within 30 days from today, failing which interest thereon @ 6% p.a. shall be paid for the period thereafter till the date of payment. The appeal is allowed in the aforestated terms. Pending applications, if any, shall stand disposed of. Parties shall bear their own costs.
