11. Issue No. 1 and 2:
Indisputably, the Workman was appointed as Peon
by the Employer. A dispute was raised by the
Complainant pertaining to the non-extending of the
3rd up gradation after completion of service thereby
depriving him the monetary benefits. The said
disputes was registered as Ref. No. IT/54/16 and
Award was passed by the Labour Court on 18-6-2018.
During the pendency of the said dispute for
adjudication before the Hon’ble Labour Court-II, the
Personal Officer by order dated 12-1-2018 revised and
refixed his pay scale in resumed violation of the
provisions of Section 33(1) (a) which is registered as
reference No. 1/18 and is pending for his adjudication.
During the pendency of the said proceeding bearing
No. 1/18, the Employer, by order dated 23-10-2018,
refixed the pay fixation and his pay was refixed on
30-8-2012 in pay band of Rs. 9550+Rs. 2400 in MACP
III.
12. During the pendency of the reference, the
Employer has issued an Order dated 29-11-2018
stating that in terms of BOD decision taken vide
Resolution No. 93/17 in the 213th Board meeting held
on 29-11-2017 and subsequent Government approval
by the Directorate of Transport vide Letter dated
22-11-2018 extended the monetary benefits of 7th
Central Pay Commission to its staff/employees w.e.f.
01-11-2018, however, the benefits of the Revised Pay
Commission of the employee shown at Annexure ‘A’
case is pending before the Labour Court/Industrial
Tribunal is differed till the dispute under the 6th Pay
Commission which are pending before the various
court of law are resolved/settled.
13.
The Complainant mean while approached
the Hon’ble High Court of Bombay at Goa, against
the Employer as well as the Government of Goa by
filing Writ Petition No. 234 of 2020. The Hon’ble High
Court allowed the said Writ Petition and held that
the Employer is directed to process the case of
petitioner for receipt of benefits of the
recommendation of the 7th Pay Commission within
two months. Accordingly, the Complainant was
given the benefits of 7th Central Pay Commission vide
its Order dated 27-10-2021. In the light of the matter
being decided by the Hon’ble High Court and
compliance by Employer to High Court directions,
the issue does not survive.
14.
It is noticed that the Employer Corporation
is a Government undertaking as defined u/s 617 of
the Companies Act, 1956. The Employer is bound by
the financial discipline applicable to a Government
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 39
29TH DECEMBER, 2022
2693
Undertaking, the Financial Authority having been
vested in the Government of Goa. The General
Manager of the Employer Corporation could not have
taken a decision relating to financial aspects without
authorization from the Board of Directors to whom
he reports. The Board of Directors could not have
taken decision till the dispute was decided by the
Hon’ble High Court. There is no alteration in the
conditions of service of the Complainant. At his
highest, the matter was deferred pending the
decision of Hon’ble High Court. The Workman having
admittedly received his benefits as on dates
applicable to his service, the issue of changing
conditions does not survive. The issue No. 1 and 2
are therefore answered as does not survive.
Issue No. 3:
15. The Employer, as and by way of its preliminary
objections, submitted that the complaint is liable to
dismissed as there is no alterations of service
conditions as alleged by the complainant and that
what is referred for adjudication is not a complaint
as defined u/s 33-A of the I.D. Act, 1947.
16. While deciding the issue No. 2 hereinabove, I
have come to the conclusion that the service
condition of the complainant has not been altered to
his prejudice. The present complaint is filed by the
complainant u/s 33-A of the I.D. Act, 1947 and it is
not a reference. Hence, it is held that the Employer
proved that the complaint of the Complainant is liable
to dismissed in view of the reasons as stated in para,
2(a) of its reply. The issue No. 3 is answered as
affirmative.
Issue No. 4:
17. By the present complaint, the Complainant
prayed for passing an award holding that the
“differing” of the 7th Central Pay Commission is
illegal and considered the Workman for the eligibility
of the 7th Pay Commission from the date of
entitlement with consequential benefit in
accordance with the 7th Pay Commission and that
this Hon’ble Court be pleased to initiate proceedings
against General Manager u/s 31 for contravention of
provision of Section 33.
18. The Hon’ble High Court of Bombay, at Goa
Bench allowed the Writ Petition No. 234 of 2020 by
its Order dated 04-10-2021 and directed the Employer
to process the case of the Petitioner/Complainant for
receipt of benefits of the recommendation of the 7th
Pay Commission within two months from today.
Accordingly, the Employer has issued an addendum
dated 27-10-2020 to the Complainant in compliance
to the order of the Hon’ble High Court. As such, the
Employer has already granted recommendations of
the 7th Central Pay Commission to the Complainant.
19.
As regards initiating proceedings against
the General Manager u/s 31 for contravention of
provisions of Section 33, the Employer has issued an
Order dated 29-11-2018 wherein in terms of Board of
Directors decision taken vide resolution No. 93/17 in
the 213th Board Meeting held on 29-12-2017 and
subsequent Government approval by the Directorate
of Transport vide letter dated 22-11-2018, the General
Manager has issued an order of deferring the benefits
of the revised pay commission to the Complainant
and others in the dispute under 6th Pay Commission
which were pending resolution before the various
court of law. The General Manager of the Employer
Corporation was not made a party by the Complainant
in any capacity. The Complaint is against the
Employer Company which is an artificial body under
the Companies Act. The Employer has acted in good
faith on the circular issued by the Department of
Finance, Government of Goa and the General
Manager is not liable for the acts done by him in
furtherance of instructions by the Board of Directors
of the Corporation.
In view of above, I pass the following order.
ORDER
1. The Complainant has already been granted the
benefits of 7th Central Pay Commission. The
subject matter of the Complaint does not
survive. The Complaint is dismissed.
2. No order as to cost.
Inform the Government accordingly.

1600.
3. He stated that he raised a dispute pertaining to
the anomaly in his pay fixation thereby depriving
him from monetary benefits w.e.f. 01-07-2007. He
stated that vide Order dated 08-01-2014, the
Government of Goa, vide its Order dated 28-01-2014
referred a dispute pertaining to the legality and
justifiability of the action of the Employer pertaining
to anomaly in his pay fixation there by depriving him
from monetary benefits w.e.f. 01-07-2007 and if not to
what relief the Workman is entitled. He stated that
pending the aforesaid reference before this Hon’ble
Labour Court-II, the management was pleased to
extend the monetary benefits of the 7th Central Pay
Commission to its employees w.e.f. 01-11-2018. He
stated that during the pendency of the said reference
bearing No. IT/03/14, the Employer was pleased to
pass an Order dated 15-07-2015 on recommendation
of the Departmental Screening Committee. He stated
that the Workman, who have completed 20 years of
service, is granted second up gradation in the pay
band of Rs. 5200-20200+2800 under the Modified
Assured Career Progression Scheme (MACPS). He
stated that he was made eligible for the second up
gradation and his basic pay was fixed at Rs.
10700+2800 Grade Pay w.e.f. 01-09-2014. He stated
that the purported order is not in consonance with
MACP scheme. He stated that if the Workman
continue in the same cadre without any promotion
then the Workman shall be eligible for the second up
gradation under MACPs in PB-1 in the Grade Pay of
Rs. 2800 after completion of 18 years. He stated that
in accordance with the MACPs scheme, the Workman
shall be eligible for one increment at the time of
release of the second up gradation. He stated that he
shall be also eligible for 3% increase of the total pay
in pay band and grade pay drawn before such up
gradation. He stated that he has been deprived of
the said benefits resulting therein disparity in pay
fixation. He stated that a memorandum of settlement
was signed under Section 12 (3) r/w Section 18(3)
wherein Para 7 agreed to bind themselves by revised
pay scales till such time the scales of pay and other
benefits are further revised in future in respect of
Government servants/employees of the Government.
He stated that in accordance with provisions
contained in Rule 10 of CCS (RP) Rules, 2008, there
will be uniform rate of annual increment, viz 1st July
of every year employees completing six months and
above: He stated that in the revised pay structures
as on 1st July will be eligible to be granted the
increment on 01-01-2006 in the pre-revised scale as
one time measure. He stated that thereafter, he would
get the next annual increment in the revised pay
structure as on 01-07-2006 as per Rule 10 of CCS
Rules, 2008. He stated that the said office
memorandum was adopted by Government and
therefore the same is applicable to the corporation
in view of the settlement. He stated that the 6th
Central Pay Commission recommended Modified
Assured Career Progression Scheme (MACPS) and
dispute is not in respect of 6th Central Pay
Commission as the Workman is made eligible for 6th
Central Pay Commission by virtue of memorandum
of settlement.
4. He stated that the General Manager, Shri Sanjay
L. Ghate by Order dated 09-11-2018 “differed” the
benefits of the Revised Pay Commission of the
employees as shown under Annexure A wherein his
name is appearing and the entitlement of 7th Pay
Commission was differed till the dispute pending

that the General Manager, Sanjay Ghate is liable for
the violation of the service condition and necessary
action deem fit be taken against the General
Manager. He stated that he was not given personal
hearing nor any explanation was sought in respect
of denial of extension of 7th Central Pay Commission.
He stated that the Employer also failed to seek
approval of the Labour Court-II before “differing” the
implementation of the 7th Central Pay Commission
as the adjudication was pending before the Labour
Court and therefore the action of the General
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 39
29TH DECEMBER, 2022
2695
Manager is victimisation and unfair labour practice.
He stated that the General Manager failed to
appreciate that though some disputes are pending
before the Labour Court/Labour Commissioner, the
General Manager selectively “differed” the
implementation of the eligibility to pressurize him.
He stated that the act of the General Manager is
vindictive and has no right of whatsoever nature to
pass the impugned order altering the service
condition to his prejudice in the flagrant abuse of
the process of law and during the pendency of the
proceedings before the Labour Court-II. The
complainant therefore prayed that this Hon’ble Court
be pleased to pass an award holding that the
“differing” of the 7th Central Pay Commission is
illegal and consider his eligibility for the 7th Pay
Commission from the date of entitlement with
consequential benefits in accordance with 7th Pay
Commission and to initiate proceedings against the
General Manager under Section 31 for contravention
of provisions of Section 33 of the I.D. Act.
5. The Employer resisted the claim of the Workman
by filing its reply dated 19-09-2018 at Exb. 9. The
Employer, as and by way of its preliminary objections,
submitted that the complaint is liable to be dismissed
as there is no alteration of service conditions as
alleged by the Workman and that what is referred for
adjudication is not a complaint as defined u/s 33-A
of the I.D. Act.

Company registered under Section 617 of the

raised by the complainant regarding the legality and
justifiability pertaining to its demand pertaining to
anomaly in pay fixation of the complainant thereby
depriving from monetary benefits w.e.f. 01-07-2007.
The Employer stated that the said dispute is pending
for adjudication before this Hon’ble Court. The
Employer stated that the 6th Central Pay Commission
in para 6.1.15 of its report, has recommended Modified
Assured Career Progression Scheme (MACPS). The
Employer stated that on the recommendation of the
Departmental Promotion Committee (DPC), the
complainant including other Workmen were
extended the benefits of the Modified Assured Career
Progression Scheme (MACPS).
7. The Employer stated that they have issued an
Order dated 29-11-2018 wherein in terms of BOD
decision taken vide Resolution No. 93/17 in the 213th
Board Meeting held on 29-12-2017 and subsequent
Government approval conveyed by the Directorate
of Transport vide letter dated 22-11-2018, its
management is pleased to extend the monetary
benefits of the 7th Central Pay Commission to its staff/
/employees w.e.f. 01-11-2018. The Employer stated
that the benefits of the Revised Pay Commission of
the employees as shown under Annexure “A” and
“B” have been deferred till the dispute under the
6th Pay Commission which are pending before the
various court of law are resolved/settled. The
Employer stated that the above mentioned deferred
benefits of Revised Pay Commission was due to
condition mentioned in the circular dated
27-11-2017 issued by the Department of Finance,
Government of Goa. The Employer denied the overall
case as pleaded by the complainant and prayed for
dismissal of the present complaint filed by the
complainant.
8. Thereafter, the complainant filed his rejoinder
dated 07-10-2019 at exb. 10. The complainant, as and
by way of his rejoinder, submitted that the written
statement filed by the Employer is “contemporary”
and frivolous and the Managing Director is liable for
perjury for making false statement. He stated that
the Labour Court has passed an award in the pending
reference and therefore the dispute is resolved by
the Labour Court-II. He stated that since the dispute
is resolved that he be released the 7th Pay
Commission. He submitted that the controversy is
also resolved in view of the Judgment in Writ Petition
No. 114/2019 passed by the Hon’ble High Court. The

11. I have heard the oral arguments of Ld. Adv.
Shri P. Agarwal, appearing for the Employer. On the
contrary Ld. Adv. Shri A. Kundaikar appearing for
the Workman remained absent. I have carefully
perused the entire records of the present case. I have
also carefully considered the oral arguments
advanced by the Ld. Adv. Shri P. Agarwal appearing
for the Employer and is of the firm opinion as under.
REASONS
12. Issue No. 1 and 2:
Indisputably, the Workman was appointed as
‘Heavy Vehicle Driver’. The earlier reference was
referred for adjudication to the Labour Court-II which
is registered as case No. REF/LC-II/03/2014. The said
reference pertaining to the legality and justifiability
of the demand of the Employer pertaining to anomaly
in pay fixation of the complainant thereby depriving
him from monetary benefits w.e.f. 01-07-2007 and if
not what relief the Workman is entitled to. During
the pendency of the aforesaid reference, the
Employer has issued an Order dated 29-11-2018
stating that in terms of Board of Directors decision
taken vide Resolution No. 93/17 in the 213th Board
Meetings held on 29-12-2017 and subsequent
Government approval by the Directorate of Transport
vide letter dated 22-11-2018, the Employer is pleased
to extend the benefits of the 7th Central Pay
Commission to its staff/Employees w.e.f. 01-11-2018.
The benefits of the Revised Pay Commission of the
Employees as shown as under Annexure A & B have
been deferred till the disputes under the 6th Pay
Commission which are pending before the various
court of law are resolved/re-settled.
13. The Complainant mean while approached the
Hon’ble High Court of Bombay at Goa, against the
Employer as well as the Government of Goa by filing
Writ Petition No. 234 of 2020. The Hon’ble High Court
allowed the said Writ Petition and held that the
Employer is directed to process the case of petitioner
for receipt of benefits of the recommendation of the
7th Pay Commission within two months.
Accordingly, the Complainant was given the benefits
of 7th Central Pay Commission vide its Order dated
27-10-2021. In the light of the matter being decided
by the Hon’ble High Court and compliance by
Employer to High Court directions, the issue does
not survive.
14. It is noticed that the Employer Corporation is a
Government undertaking as defined u/s 617 of the
Companies Act, 1956. The Employer is bound by the
financial discipline applicable to a Government
Undertaking, the Financial Authority having been
vested in the Government of Goa. The General
Manager of the Employer Corporation could not have
taken a decision relating to financial aspects without
authorization from the Board of Directors to whom
he reports. The Board of Directors could not have
taken decision till the dispute was decided by the
Hon’ble High Court. There is no alteration in the
conditions of service of the Complainant. At his
highest, the matter was deferred pending the
decision of Hon’ble High Court. The Workman having
admittedly received his benefits as on dates
applicable to his service, the issue of changing
conditions does not survive. The issue No. 1 and 2
are therefore answered as does not survive.
Issue No. 3:
15. The Employer, as and by way of its preliminary
objections, submitted that the complaint is liable to
dismissed as there is no alterations of service
conditions as alleged by the complainant and that
what is referred for adjudication is not a complaint
as defined u/s 33-A of the I.D. Act, 1947.
16. While deciding the issue No. 2 hereinabove, I
have come to the conclusion that the service
condition of the complainant has not been altered to
his prejudice. The present complaint is filed by the
complainant u/s 33-A of the I.D. Act, 1947 and it is
not a reference. Hence, it is held that the Employer
proved that the complaint of the Complainant is liable
to dismissed in view of the reasons as stated in para
2(a) of its reply. The issue No. 3 is answered as
affirmative.
Issue No. 4:
17. By the present complaint, the Complainant
prayed for passing an award holding that the
“differing” of the 7th Central Pay Commission is
illegal and considered the Workman for the eligibility
of the 7th Pay Commission from the date of
entitlement with consequential benefit in
accordance with the 7th Pay Commission and that
this Hon’ble Court be pleased to initiate proceedings
against General Manager u/s 31 for contravention of
provision of Section 33.
18.
The Hon’ble High Court of Bombay, at Goa
Bench allowed the Writ Petition No. 234 of 2020 by
its Order dated 04-10-2021 and directed the Employer
to process the case of the Petitioner/Complainant for

the order of the Hon’ble High Court. As such, the
Employer has already granted recommendations of
the 7th Central Pay Commission to the complainant.
19.
