SRO 14 of 1996 | Employees of Converted Government Transport Undertakings Not Entitled to Non-Pension Govt. Benefits Unless Explicitly Adopted by Statutory Corporation : J&K HC
The J&K High Court ruled that employees transferred from a government transport undertaking to a statutory corporation under SRO 14 of 1996 retain only pensionary benefits, not other government service perks like in-situ promotions, unless the corporation expressly adopts them. This clarifies the limits of transitional benefits for public sector employees restructured under statutory frameworks, impacting hundreds of similar cases across India.
