Supreme Court's 39-Month Salary Formula for Illegal Termination | Madras HC Awards ₹15 Lakh Compensation Over Reinstatement : Madras HC
Madras High Court applies the Supreme Court's 39-month salary formula to calculate compensation for illegal termination, awarding ₹15,00,000 instead of reinstatement after 19 years of litigation. The ruling reinforces that compensation, not reinstatement, may be the appropriate relief in prolonged service disputes under the Tamil Nadu Shops and Establishments Act.
