Pension Entitlement | Delayed Promotion Grades Must Be Backdated for Pension Calculation Under Judicial Order: Kerala HC
The Kerala High Court has directed the State Co-operative Employees Pension Board to reassess a retired bank employee's pension by incorporating the full benefit of promoted grades, even if approval was delayed. This ensures that judicial orders mandating salary revision are not rendered meaningless by administrative inertia, setting a critical precedent for co-operative sector employees whose pensions are wrongly calculated based on entry-level posts.
