Goa Human Rights Commission
Office of the Goa Human Rights Commission
Panaji-Goa
Proceeding No. 90/2017
Inquiry Report
The Complainant/Shri A. B. Pankar has filed the present complaint alleging that there was a delay of seven years for settlement of his legitimate retirement dues and over eight years of departmental inquiry causing financial loss to him. He has also alleged that the interest on delayed payment has not been paid till date.
2. The Complainant retired from services of EDC Ltd. on 31-12-2008 on superannuation after 33 years. The Complainant has stated that in June, 2015, after, a delay of about seven years, he received partial retirement dues comprising of superannuation benefit disbursed through the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC). He received interest from LIC for delayed period i.e. from January, 2009 till June, 2015. He has further stated that no interest has been paid by EDC Ltd., on the retirement dues which were released simultaneously after a delay of about seven years. It is also the case of the Complainant that he has not been given copy of the report of the departmental inquiry which was delayed for over eight years. The Complainant has prayed that the EDC Ltd. may be directed to pay him the interest amounting to Rs. 8,07,322/- (Rupees eight lakhs seven thousand three hundred twenty two only) as on 20th June, 2015 and additional interest at 12% compounded quarterly till the date of final settlement.
3. Taking cognizance of the complaint, this Commission called for report from the Managing Director, EDC Ltd., EDC House, Panaji-Goa/ /Respondent. In pursuance to the notice, the Respondent has filed reply dated 23-06-2017. The Complainant has filed Rejoinder dated 02-08-2017. The Respondent has filed Sur-Rejoinder dated 12-04-2018. The Complainant has filed Sur-Rejoinder dated 04-07-2018.
4. The case of the Respondent in brief is as
follows:-
The Respondent vide letter No. EDC/ADM/3820 dated 02-01-2009, informed the Complainant that the decision for release of retirement benefits to him under the EDC Employees Superannuation Scheme and Leave Encashment Scheme shall be the subject to the outcome of the disciplinary proceedings in respect of non-payment of Wealth Tax initiated against the Complainant. The reason for not making the payment of retirement dues was due to the disciplinary proceedings that were pending against the Complainant as on date of retirement i.e. 31-12-2008.
The Respondent vide letter No. EDC/ADM/212 dated 28-01-2009, informed the Complainant that the respondent has decided to release the balance retirement benefits of superannuation and leave encashment on his handing over the charge and up to date books of accounts of EDC Employees Provident Fund Trust to the new Trustees appointed vide Order dated 21-02-2008. Thereafter, on 19-06-2015, a cheque dated 18-06-2015 for Rs. 7,03,280/- was forwarded to the Complainant towards payment of leave encashment.
The Respondent has further stated that in its 352nd Board Meeting held on 02-09-2016, after discussions in brief as regards payment of interest on leave encashment amount at a later stage than the retirement date which was due to a Board decision taken and the prevailing circumstances then, the Board decided not to pay interest as requested by the Complainant.
5. I have heard the Complainant and Adv. Nikhil Vaze for the Respondent. Both the Parties have filed written arguments which are on record. I have also gone through the entire records of this case.
6. On the basis of the material brought on record, the points for determination are formulated as follows:-
i. Whether the complaint is barred by Law of Limitation in terms of Section 36 (2) of the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993.
ii. Whether the Complainant is entitled for interest on retirement dues for delay in pensionary benefits.
I shall first deal with the question of limitation. The Respondent in its written arguments has OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 4 28TH APRIL, 2022 contended for the first time that the complaint is barred by Law of Limitation. It is contended by the Respondent that Section 36(2) of the Protection of Human Rights Act, 1993, provides that the Central or the State Commission shall not inquire into any matter after the expiry of one year from the date on which the act constituting violation of human rights is alleged to have been committed. It is submitted that the complaint has been filed on 30-03-2017 and the Complainant has requested for payment of interest as on 20-06-2015. Thus, according to the Respondent, the claim of the Complainant for payment of interest has been filed 21 months after the receipt of payment of retirement dues by the Complainant. On the contrary, the Complainant in his written arguments has submitted that considering the habitual approach of purposeful delays by the Respondent, the matter was regularly followed up by the Complainant at various levels. It is submitted that the cause of action to claim the compensatory dues was continued time to time for which correspondence was done till filing of the present complaint. It is next contended that the matter of payment of interest was taken up in the 352nd Board Meeting of EDC Ltd., held on 02-09-2016 and as such there was acknowledgment of compensatory dues payable to the Complainant and hence further cause of action also arose from 02-09-2016. It is submitted that the present proceeding is filed on 03-03-2017 (should be 30-03-2017) and as such the complaint is within the period of limitation.
It is apparent that the matter of payment of interest was under consideration by the Respondent. In my opinion therefore the cause for action for filing the present complaint has to be construed w.e.f. 02-09-2016. Thus, the complaint is within the period of limitation. The contention of the Respondent that the complaint is barred by the Law of Limitation is therefore rejected.
The next question for my determination is whether the Complainant is entitled for interest on delayed payment of pensionary benefits. The records indicate that the Complainant retired on superannuation on 31-12-2008. The Complainant received a cheque dated 18-06-2015 for Rs. 7,03,280/- (Rupees seven lakhs three thousand two hundred eighty only) towards payment of leave encashment. Thus, it is seen that the Complainant received pensionary benefits towards payment of leave encashment after a delay of about six years and six months. In my view, the Complainant is entitled to receive interest on leave encashment from the date of his retirement.
7. The Respondent has resisted the claim of the Complainant on three grounds. First ground is that the disciplinary proceedings in respect of non- payment of Wealth Tax was initiated against the Complainant and the said disciplinary proceedings were pending against the Complainant as on the date of retirement i.e. 31-12-2008. In my considered opinion, pendency of disciplinary proceedings cannot be an excuse to delay the payment of retirement dues. There was no legal prohibition to the Respondent to pay the retirement dues, even though the disciplinary proceedings were pending against the Complainant. This justification given by the Respondent for non-payment of retirement dues therefore cannot be accepted.
The next ground urged by the Respondent for not releasing the balance retirement benefits was that the up to date books of accounts of EDC Provident Fund Trust were not handed over by the Complainant to the new Trustees. The Respondent in its written arguments has submitted that the Complainant has taken time of six years to handover all the files, cheque books and other relevant documents pertaining to EDC Provident Fund Trust. It is further submitted that there was no reason for the Complainant to hold the documents pertaining to the EDC Provident Fund Trust for six years after his retirement. It is also submitted that the Complainant himself was responsible for delay in payment. This ground also does not appeal to my mind. There was nothing to prevent the Respondent to release the balance retirement benefits of superannuation and leave encashment to the Complainant as on the date of retirement.
The third ground for non-payment of retirement benefits is that the Board in its 352nd Meeting held on 02-09-2016 decided not to pay interest as requested by the Complainant. The extract of the minutes of the 352nd Board Meeting is on record as Exhibit 'C'. In the said meeting it is stated that the Board decided not to pay interest as decided in the meeting. The decision taken by the Board meeting appears to my mind arbitrary in nature. The decision of the Board, therefore, cannot come to the rescue of the Respondent.
8. The Respondent in its written arguments has also contended that the interest cannot be claimed through this Commission. It is submitted that this Commission cannot adjudicate as to whether the Complainant is entitled for interest. It is also submitted that this Commission does not have jurisdiction to grant interest as requested by the Complainant. I am not able to reconcile myself with this contention of the Respondent. In my opinion, OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 4 28TH APRIL, 2022 the claim of the Complainant for interest on delay of payment is a part of pensionary benefits. The Complainant therefore cannot be denied interest on delayed payment. The non-payment of interest on delayed payment of retirement dues In my view is a violation of basic human rights of the Complainant.
9. In the facts and circumstances of this case, the Commission makes the following recommendations:-
I. The Respondent shall pay interest on delayed payment to the Complainant at lending rate by Nationalised Banks.
II. The Respondent shall pay compensation of Rs. 10,000/- (Rupees Ten thousand only) to the Complainant on account of mental agony suffered by the Complainant on account of delay in payment of interest.

(b) Issue No. 2 : As per final Order.
I have heard the oral arguments of Ld. Adv. Shri Suhas Naik appearing for the Applicant. On the contrary, none remained present for the Opponents. I have carefully perused the entire records of the present case. I have also carefully considered the submissions advanced by the Ld. Adv. Shri Suhas Naik, appearing for the Applicant.
REASONS:
Issue No.1
7. By the present claim application, the Applicant claimed a total amount of Rs. 2,69,551/- (Rupees Two lakhs sixty nine thousand five hundred and fifty one only) being Rs. 1,11,668/- towards pending salary, Rs. 27,762/- towards bonus, Rs. 13,125/- towards LTA, medical allowances for the year 2018-19 and 2019-20, Rs. 70,000/- towards salary increase arrears, Rs. 46,996/- and towards unutilized privileged leave (90 days).
To support her claim, the Applicant has produced on record documentary evidence in support of her oral evidence. The said evidence oral as well as documentary adduced by the Applicant on record remained unchallenged for want of denial.
(a) Unpaid Salary:
8. The Applicant claimed from the Opponent an amount of Rs. 1,11,668/- towards her pending salaries for the period from October, 2019 to February, 2020.
The evidence on record indicates that the Applicant joined in the services of the Opponent No.1 on 01-03-1990 as 'Steno Typist' and subsequently promoted as 'Stenographer' w.e.f. 01-04-2003, as 'Asstt. Secretary' w.e.f. 01-10-2005, as 'Secretary' w.e.f. 01-04-2012 and lastly promoted as 'Executive- Food and Beverage' w.e.f. 01-04-2018. The evidence on record indicates that the monthly net salary of the Applicant was Rs. 23,868/- after deducting the P.F. amounting to Rs. 1,766/- in the month of May, 2019.
9. The evidence on record indicates that the Applicant resigned, vide her letter dated 20-01-2020 (Exb. 6) and was relieved on 20-03-2020 (Exb. 7) at the close working hours of 19-02-2020. The evidence on record indicates that the Applicant has not been paid her earned salaries for the months from October, 2019 till 19-02-2020. The evidence on record indicates that the monthly total net salary of the Applicant was Rs. 23,868/-. Thus, the Applicant is entitled to receive from the Opponent a sum of Rs. 1,10,588/- (Rupees One lakh ten thousand five hundred and eighty eight only) towards her unpaid salaries for the period from October, 2019 till 19-02-2020.
(b) Bonus:
10. The Applicant claimed Bonus of an amount of Rs. 27,762/- for the year 2018-2019 and for the year 2019-2020.
The bonus is paid to the employee under the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965. Section 8 of the Act provides for the eligibility of the Bonus. Section 9 of the Act provides for disqualification for the Bonus. Section 10 of the Act, provides for minimum bonus. The provisions of Section 10 provides for the minimum OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 4 28TH APRIL, 2022 bonus of 8.33% of the salary or wage earned by the employee during the accounting year or Rs.100/-, whichever is higher, whether or not the Employer has any allocable surplus in the accounting year. Similarly, Section 11 of the Act, provides for payment of maximum bonus.
11. The evidence on record indicates that the Applicant has failed to produce on record relevant materials to grant maximum bonus. In the circumstances, the Applicant is entitled for minimum bonus @8.33% of the salary or wage earned by the employee during the accounting year or Rs.100/- whichever is higher, whether or not the Employer has any allocable surplus in the accounting year.
12. The Applicant claimed from the Opponent an amount of Rs. 27,762/- towards Bonus for the year 2018-2019 and for the year 2019-2020. Taking into consideration the monthly salary of the Applicant of Rs. 23,868/-, the minimum bonus for the year 2018-19 and for the year 2019-20 @8.33% amounts to Rs. 3,976/- (Rupees Three thousand nine hundred and seventy six only).
Thus, the Applicant proved that she is entitled to receive from the Opponent No.1 a total amount of Rs. 3,976/- (Rupees Three thousand nine hundred and seventy six only) towards bonus for the year 2018-19 and for the year 2019-20.
(c) Medical Allowance and LTA.
13. The Applicant claimed LTA and medical allowance for the year 2018-19 and for the year 2019-20 for an amount of Rs. 13,125/- (Rupees Thirteen thousand one hundred and twenty five only).
The Applicant has produced on record a letter dated 30-09-2005 issued to her by the Opponent No. 1 (Exb. 10). As per the said letter at Exb. 10 issued by the Opponent No.1, she is eligible for Medical Reimbursement of Rs.1,200/- per annum against production of bills as well as LTA of Rs. 1,200/- per annum. However, the Applicant has failed to produce on record any medical bills towards medical reimbursement. The Applicant is however, entitled for LTA of Rs. 1,200/- per annum for the year 2018-19 and for the year 2019-20 amounting to Rs. 2400/-. Hence, it is held that the Applicant failed to prove that she is entitled for medical allowance and as such her claim towards Medical Allowance stands rejected. The Applicant has however proved that she is entitled for LTA for an amount of Rs. 2,400/- (Rupees Two thousand four hundred only).
(d) Salary Increase Arrears:
14. The Applicant claimed an amount of Rs. 70,000/- towards the arrears in her increase in salary from 01-04-2017 till 30-11-2018.
The evidence on record indicates that the gross salary of the Applicant was Rs. 23,134/- w.e.f. 01-04-2017 which was subsequently increased to Rs. 25,634/- w.e.f. 01-04-2018 as per the salary revision for the year 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 dated 26-12-2018 (Exb.13). Thus, there was increase in salary of Rs. 2,500/- per month from 01-04-2017 till 30-11-2018 (for 20 months) which comes to Rs. 50,000/-. Thus, the Applicant is entitled to receive from the Opponent No. 1 a sum of Rs. 50,000/- (Rupees Fifty thousand only) towards arrears of increase in salary.
(e) Unutilized Privileged Leave:
15. The Applicant claimed an amount of Rs. 46,996/ - towards 90 days of her unutilized privileged leave. The net salary of the Applicant was Rs. 23,868/- per month. Taking into consideration the monthly salary of the Applicant, the Applicant is entitled for an amount of Rs.71,604/- towards her unutilized privileged leave. Thus, the Applicant is entitled to receive from the Opponent a sum of Rs. 71,604/- (Rupees Seventy one thousand six hundred and four only) towards her unutilized privileged leave.
16. In the case of New Standard Engineering Company Limited v/s. Ashok H. Hire and Anr., reported in 2004 II CLR 574, the Hon'ble High Court of Bombay, after relying upon a judgment of Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, in the case of Suresh Sakharam Chowgule and Anr. v/s. M/s. Parel Cotton Press Factory (1994 SUPP. (3) SCC 704), held that "though the provisions of Industrial Disputes Act, do not expressly empowered the Industrial Court to grant interest, the court is entitled to grant interest depending upon facts of each case".
17. In the case of Haryana State Federation of Consumer Co-operative Wholesale Stores Ltd. v/s. Siri Kishan and Anr., reported in 1996 II CLR 688, the Hon'ble High Court of Punjab and Haryana has held that "where the Employer has retained what was required to be disbursed to the Workman, by denying their rightful dues for almost a period of 12 years, during which the value of their money has considerably diminished due to inflation i.e. prevalent in the country, the Labour Court is perfectly entitled to say that the workman should be compensated by way of payment of interest."
18. Thus, it is settled principle of law that the Labour Court or Industrial Tribunal is empowered to grant interest depending upon the facts and circumstances of each case. In the instant case as stated above, it has been proved that the Applicant is entitled to receive from the Opponent No. 1 a total amount of Rs. 2,38,568/- (Rupees Two lakhs thirty eight thousand five hundred and sixty eight only) towards OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 4 28TH APRIL, 2022 unpaid salaries, arrears of salary increment, unutilized privileged leave, LTA and bonus. The Applicant is therefore entitled to receive from the Opponent No. 1 being Employer and Opponent No. 2 and Opponent No. 3 being partners of the Opponent No.1 the said amount of Rs. 2,38,568/- (Rupees Two lakhs thirty eight thousand five hundred and sixty eight only) alongwith simple interest @ 9% p.a. from the date of passing the present order till its actual realization.
In view of above and with regards to the facts and circumstances of the case, I pass the following order:
O R D E R
1. The present claim application of the Applicant filed u/s 33-C (2) of the I.D. Act, 1947 is hereby allowed. The Opponents are hereby directed to pay to the Applicant, Ms. Milagrine Fernandes, a sum of Rs. 2,38,568/- (Rupees Two lakhs thirty eight thousand five hundred and sixty eight only) along with simple interest @9% p.a. from the date of passing of the present order till the actual realization of the

12. The Applicant claimed from the Opponent an amount of Rs. 32,181/- for the year 2018-19 and for the year 2019-20 towards bonus. Taking into consideration the monthly salary of the Applicant of Rs. 32,893/-, the minimum bonus for the year 2018-19 and for the year 2019-20 @8.33% amounts to
Rs. 5,480/- (Rupees Five thousand four hundred and eighty only).
Thus, the Applicant proved that he is entitled to receive from the Opponent No. 1 a total amount of Rs. 5,480/- (Rupees Five thousand four hundred and eighty only) towards bonus for the year 2018-19 and for the year 2019-20.

The Applicant claimed LTA and medical allowance for the year 2018-2019 and for the year 2019-2020 for an amount of Rs. 22,000/- (Rupees
Twenty two thousand only).
13. The Applicant has however, failed to produce
on record any material evidence to show that he is
entitled for Medical Allowance. In the absence of
any material evidence on record, this Court cannot
grant any amount towards Medical Allowance to
the Applicant. Hence, it is held that the Applicant
failed to prove that he is entitled for medical
allowance and as such his claim towards Medical
Allowance stands rejected.
14. The Applicant has produced on recordletter
dated 26-12-2018 issued by the Opponent No.1
(Exb.06). As per the said letter at Exb. 06 issued by
the Opponent No. 1, he is eligible for Leave Travel
Allowance of Rs. 12,000/- per annum. The Applicant
is therefore, entitled for LTA of Rs. 12,000/- per annum
for the year 2018-19 and for the year 2019-20
amounting to Rs. 24,000/-. Hence, the Applicant has
proved that he is entitled for LTA for an amount of
Rs. 24,000/- (Rupees Twenty four thousand only).
(d) Salary Increase Arrears:
15. The Applicant claimed an amount of
Rs. 1,43,296/- towards the arrears in his increase in
salary from 01-04-2017 till 30-11-2018.
The evidence on record indicates that the net
salary of the Applicant was Rs. 29,883/- w.e.f.
01-04-2017 which was subsequently increased to
Rs. 35,000/- w.e.f. 01-04-2018 as per the salary revision
for the year 2016-17 and 2017-18 dated 26-12-2018
(Exb. 6). Thus, there was increase in salary of Rs. 5,117/-
per month from 01-04-2017 till 30-11-2018 (for 20
months) which comes to Rs. 1,02,340/-. Thus, the
Applicant is entitled to receive from the Opponent
No. 1 a sum of Rs. 1,02,340/- (Rupee One lakh two
thousand three hundred and forty only) towards
arrears of increase in salary.
(e) Unutilized Privileged Leave:
16. The Applicant claimed an amount of
Rs. 2,21,666/- towards 90 days of his unutilized
privileged leave. The net salary of the Applicant was
Rs. 32,893/- per month. Taking into consideration the
monthly salary of the Applicant, the Applicant is
entitled for an amount of Rs. 98,679/- towards his
unutilized privileged leave. Thus, the Applicant is
entitled to receive from the Opponent a sum of
Rs. 98,679/-(Rupees Ninety eight thousand six
hundred and seventy nine only) towards his
unutilized privileged leave.
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 4 28TH APRIL, 202217. In the case of New Standard Engineering Company Limited v/s. Ashok H. Hire and Anr.,
reported in 2004 II CLR 574, the Hon'ble High Court
of Bombay, after relying upon a judgment of Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, in the case of Suresh Sakharam Chowgule and Anr. v/s. M/s. Parel Cotton
Press Factory (1994 SUPP. (3) SCC 704), held that "though the provisions of Industrial Disputes Act, do not expressly empowered the Industrial Court to grant
interest, the court is entitled to grant interest
depending upon facts of each case".
18. In the case of Haryana State Federation of Consumer Co-operative Wholesale Stores Ltd. v/s. SiriKishan and Anr., reported in 1996 II CLR 688, the
Hon'ble High Court of Punjab and Haryana has held that "where the Employer has retained what was required to be disbursed to the Workman, by denying their rightful dues for almost a period of 12 years, during which the value of their money has considerably diminished due to inflation i.e. prevalent
in the country, the Labour Court is perfectly entitled to say that the workman should be compensated by way of payment of interest."
19. Thus, it is settled principle of law that the Labour Court or Industrial Tribunal is empowered to grant interest depending upon the facts and
circumstances of each case. In the instant case as stated above, it has been proved that the Applicant is entitled to receive from the Opponent No.1 a total amount of Rs. 3,65,359/- (Rupees Three lakhs sixty five thousand three hundred and fifty nine only) towards unpaid salaries, bonus, arrears of salary
increase, unutilized privileged leave and LTA. The Applicant is therefore entitled to receive from the Opponent No.1 being Employer and Opponent No. 2 and Opponent No. 3 being partners of the Opponent No. 1 the said amount of Rs. 3,65,359/- (Rupees Three lakhs sixty five thousand three hundred and fifty
nine only) alongwith simple interest @ 9% p.a. from the date of passing the present order till its actual realization.
Rs. 3,65,359/- (Rupees Three lakhs sixty five thousand
three hundred and fifty nine only) along with simple interest @9% p.a. from the date of passing of the present order till the actual realization of the said amount.
2. No order as to cost.
Pronounced in the Open Court.
