2. The Zonal Officer,
North Educational Zone,
Mapusa, Bardez-Goa …… Respondents.
INQUIRY REPORT
(29th November, 2023)
The complaint dated 20-09-2022, was received
from the Complainant stating that after she worked
for about 37 years as a Government Primary Teacher
from 10-03-1984 and retired on 31-07-2021, when
she received her pension and retirement benefits,
she found that an amount of Rs. 3,28,554/- was
deducted from her dues.
2. On perusing the complaint, the Commission
issued notices to the two Respondents.
3. The Respondent No. 1 filed their reply dated
28-11-2022. After which, the Complainant filed their
Rejoinder dated 28-02-2023.
4. At the stage of hearing, the Commission heard
the Complainant and also heard Shri D. Chawdikar,
Deputy Director of Education (Legal), on behalf of
the Respondents.
5. In State of Punjab and Others v. Rafiq Masih
(White Washer) and Others, (2015) 4 SCC 334, in
Para 18, it held as under:_18. “It is not possible to
postulate all situations of hardship which would
govern employees on the issue of recovery, where
payments have mistakenly been made by the
employer, in excess of their entitlement. Be that as
it may, based on the decisions referred to
hereinabove, we may, as a ready reference,
summarise the following few situations, wherein
recoveries by the employers, would be impermissible
in law:
(i) Recovery from the employees belonging to
Class III and Class IV service (or Group C and
Group D service).
(ii) Recovery from the retired employees, or the
employees who are due to retire within one
year, of the order of recovery.
(iii) Recovery from the employees, when the excess
payment has been made for a period in excess
of five years, before the order of recovery is
issued.
(iv) Recovery in cases where an employee has
wrongfully been required to discharge duties
of a higher post, and has been paid
accordingly, even though he should have
rightfully been required to work against an
inferior post.
(v) In any other case, where the court arrives at
the conclusion, that recovery if made from
the employee, would be iniquitous or harsh or
arbitrary to such an extent, as would far
outweigh the equitable balance of the
employer’s right to recover.”
6. In the present case, the Commission finds that
the Complainant retired as Government Primary
Teacher on 31-07-2021 and at the time of payment
of her retirement benefits, an amount of Rs. 3,28,554/-
was deducted from her gratuity amount. The Commission
finds that the Complainant was a Class--III employee and
as per the judgment of the Supreme Court (supra),
the recovery of employees belonging to Class-III is
impermissible in law.
15. In the facts of the present case, the
Commission accordingly recommends that the
Complainant re-applies to the Respondent No. 1 for
refund of said amount of Rs. 3,28,554/- within seven
days from today and the Respondent No. 1 shall
forthwith decide the application within three weeks
thereafter.
16. Under Section 18(e) of the Protection of Human
Rights Act, 1993, the Commission shall send a copy
of the Inquiry Report together with its recommendrtions
to the concerned Government or authority and they
shall, within a period of one month or such further
time as the Commission may allow, forward its
comments on the report, including the action taken
or proposed to be taken, to the Commission.
17. Copy of the Inquiry Report be sent to the
Respondent No. 1, calling for their comments,
including the action taken or proposed to be taken
within a period of 30 days or on or before
29-12-2023, in terms of Section 18(e) of the Protection
of Human Rights Act, 1993.

AWARD
(Delivered on this the 1st day of the month of
February of the year 2024)
By Order dated 12-10-2021, bearing No. 28/43/
/2021-LAB/500, the Government of Goa in exercise
of powers conferred by Section 10(1)(d) of the
Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, has referred the
following dispute to this Tribunal for adjudication:-
“(1) Whether non-implementation of Recommendation
of Seventh Central Pay Commission by the
management of the Goa State Co-operative Milk
Producer’ Union Limited, Curti, Ponda-Goa to
its workmen, is legal and justified?
(2) If not, to what relief the Workmen are entitled?”
2. Upon receipt of the reference, it was registered
as IT/17/2021 and notices were served on both Parties
by registered post A/D.
3. The Workmen/Party I has filed its Statement of
Claim.
4. The Workmen/Party I states in their Statement
of Claim that the Employer/Party II is engaged in the
procurement of milk from farmers, processing it and
selling it in the market. That, initially the business
was carried out by the Animal Husbandry
Department of the Government of Goa and the
workmen were Government employees. That,
subsequently the Goa State Co-operative Milk
Producers’ Union Limited (Party II) was formed and
the Dairy was handed over to it. That, the workmen
working in it were paid as per the Pay Commission
recommendation as applicable to the State
Government employees.
5. That, the Employer/Party II had implemented
the recommendation of all the past Pay Commissions
including the Sixth Pay Commission. That, the
recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission was
implemented in the month of November, 2010. That
implementing the recommendations of the Pay
Commissions had become a condition of service from
the year 2010. That, the State Government had issued
Circular dated 27-11-2017 directing the implementation
of the recommendation of the 7th Pay Commission
(as adopted by the Government of Goa to its
employees), to the employees functioning in
Autonomous Bodies, Agencies, Corporations and
public sector undertakings. That upon receipt of the
Circular dated 27-11-2017, the Workers’ Union (Party
I) requested the Management (Party II) to implement
the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission.
That, the Employer/Party II has not done so. That the
Workmen/Party I raised a dispute before the Asst.
Labour Commissioner, Ponda-Goa. That the
conciliation proceedings ended in failure. That, the
Asst. Labour Commissioner submitted his report by
letter dated 25-08-2021. That, non-implementation
of the 7th Pay Commission’s recommendation is a
breach of service condition for which the Employer/
/Party II has not issued a notice under Section 9-A of
the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Therefore, it is
prayed that it be declared that the non-implementation
of the recommendations of the 7th Central Pay
Commission by Party II is illegal, unjustified and bad-
-in-law. It is prayed that the Employer/Party II be
directed to implement the recommendation of the
7th Central Pay Commission with effect from
01-01-2016. That the Employer/Party II be directed to
pay the arrears of the wages together with interest
at the rate of 18% per annum from 01-01-2016 to the
date of actual payment.
6. The Employer/Party II has filed its Written
Statement
7. The case of the Employer/Party II is that Party II
(M/s. The Goa State Co-operative Milk Producers’
Union Ltd.) is a co-operative institution. That it is not
a Government undertaking. That, it is not an
autonomous agency/corporation/enterprise of the
Government. That, it is the Apex Body of 178 Primary
Dairy Co-operative Societies. That the Employer/
/Party II collects, processes and markets milk and
milk products. That it also supplies feed and fodder.
It also provides for veterinary care.
8. That the Animal Husbandry Department of the
Government of Goa had a Milk Dairy Plant at Curti,
Ponda-Goa and a Feed Plant at Usgaon. That, it was
operated by the Department of AH & VS. That the
Government of Goa leased the said Milk Dairy Plant
and the Feed Plant to the Employer on 16-05-1984 for
a period of 90 years on an annual rent of Re. 1/-. That,
after transferring the same, the Government of Goa
closed down the said wing of the Department of AH
& VS. That the staff of the Department of AH & VS
who were working on deputation with Party II became
surplus and were retrenched on 31-12-1989. That, the
said employees were thereafter absorbed in the services
of the Employer/Party II and its Service Rules and
Regulations became applicable to them. It is denied
that at the time of the formation of Goa Dairy under
Party II, the workers were assured that they will continue
to get the benefits of the Pay Commission
recommendations as implemented by the
Government of Goa for its employees. That, the
recommendations of the Pay Commission was
adopted by Party II subject to modification
depending on the paying capacity of Party II. That it
requires the approval of the Competent Authority/
/Committee or the Administrator/Boards.

9. That by Resolution 1 in meeting dated
01-12-2010, Party II had only adopted the salary part
of the VI Pay Commission Report. That, issues like
disbursement of dearness allowance, retirement
period of employees etc. were decided as per Board/
/Management decisions from time to time. It is denied
that implementation of the recommendation of the
Pay Commission Recommendation became a
condition of service from the year 2010. It is denied
that not implementing the recommendation of the
Pay Commission is an alteration of the service
condition and that Party II had violated the
provisions of Section 9-A of the Industrial Disputes
Act, 1947 by not issuing notice for such alteration of
service conditions.
10. That, the recommendation of the VII Pay
Commission is not applicable to Party II. That the
Circular regarding the implementation of the
recommendation of the VII Pay Commission Report is
not applicable to the Employer/Party II. That,
currently there is insufficient funds to implement the
recommendations of the VII Pay Commission Report.
That, not implementing the recommendation of the
VII Pay Commission or giving the arrears of the
difference in wages together with interest at the rate
of 18% per annum from 01-01-2016 to the date of actual
payment is not illegal and unjustified. Therefore, it is
prayed that the claim of Party I be dismissed.
11. The Workmen/Party I have filed their Rejoinder.
12. The workmen have denied in their Rejoinder
that the Circular about the implementation of VII Pay
Commission is not applicable to Party II. It is denied
that Party II has the discretion to implement the said
recommendation subject to its financial condition
and approval from the Competent Authority/
/Committee or the Administrator/Boards.
13. Heard arguments. The representatives of the
Workmen/Party I and the Employer/Party II have filed

REASONS
15. Issues No. 1 and 6: The case of the Workmen/
/Party I is that the State Government had issued a
Circular dated 27-11-2017 with a directive to
implement the recommendations of VII Pay
Commission as adopted by the Government of Goa
to the employees functioning in Autonomous Bodies,
Agencies, Corporations and Public Sector
Enterprises.
16. The Employer/Party II has denied the same.
The Employer/Party II states that it is not a
Government Body or Autonomous Agency or
Corporation or Public Sector Enterprise and that
the said Circular dated 27-11-2017 is not directly
applicable to them.
17. The Workmen/Party I have examined two
witnesses. Shri Puti Gaonkar is Witness 1 for Party
I. He is the General Secretary of Gomantak Mazdoor
Sangh. Shri Suhas Naik is Witness 2 for Party I. He
is working for Party II since 20th December, 1992.
18. The Employer/Party II have examined two
witnesses. Priyesh A. Sawant is Witness No. 1 for
Party II. He is the Personnel Officer of Party II.
Mrs. Radhika V. Kale is Witness No. 2 for Party II.
She is the Manager (Finance) of the Employer/Party
II.
19. Witness No. 1 of Party I deposes that he is the
General Secretary of Gomantak Mazdoor Sangh. He
deposes that Party II was initially a Government
Department and the workers employed in the Dairy
were Government servants. He deposes that
thereafter it was converted into an autonomous
body i.e. Party II for carrying out the operations of
the dairy industry. He deposes that at the time of
formation of Party II, the workers were assured that
they would continue to get the benefits of the Pay
Commission recommendations even though the
Department was converted to a Co-operative
Society. He deposes that since then the workers
working in Goa Dairy were paid the wages and
allowances as per the recommendations of the Pay
Commissions. He deposes that in the last several
years the workers were paid according to the Pay
Commission recommendations. He deposes that
Party II implemented the Sixth Pay Commission
recommendation in the month of November, 2010.
He deposed that the implementation of the Pay
Commissions recommendation have become a
condition of service since the year 2010.
20. Witness No. 1 of Party I deposes that Party II
has not implemented recommendations of the 7th
Pay Commission. He deposes that Party II has
violated the provisions of Section 9-A of the
Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 as no notice of change
was given by it for changing the above mentioned
service conditions.
21. Witness No. 1 for Party I deposes that the
Government of Goa had issued a Circular dated
27-11-2017 to Autonomous Bodies, agencies,
corporation and Public Sector Enterprises with a
directive to implement the recommendation of the
7th Pay Commission. He deposes that Party II has
not complied with the said directive.
22. Witness No. 2 for Party I deposes that he has
been working for Party II since 20th December, 1992.
He deposes that since then he has been paid his
wages and other allowances as per the
recommendations of the pay commissions as
applicable to the employees of the State
Government. He deposes that he was given time
bound promotions from time to time as per the pay
commission recommendations. He deposes that it
was only after the new managing committee took
charge in the year 2008 that his benefits were
delayed. He says that the recommendations of the
7th Pay Commission have not been implemented.
23. The Testimony of witness No. 1 for Party I is
corroborated by the testimony of witness No. 2 for
Party I.
24. Witness No. 1 for Party II is the Personnel
Officer of Party II. He deposes that Party II is a Co-
operative institution. He deposes that it is the Apex
Body of around 178 Primary Dairy Co-operative
Societies consisting of milk producers/farmers of the
State of Goa. He deposes that it is not a Government
undertaking/agency/corporation/Enterprise. He
deposes that the Government of Goa had leased its
Milk Dairy Plant at Curti-Ponda, Goa together with
its Feed Plant at Usgao to Party II on an annual
lease of Re. 1/- for a period of 90 years from 16-05-
1984. He deposes that upon the closure of the dairy
business, the Government retrenched the workers
working in the said Dairy, w.e.f. 31-12-1989. He
deposes that the workmen opted to be absorbed in
the services of Party II. He deposes that Party II
absorbed them into its services whereby the Service
Rules of Party II was made applicable to the
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 50
14TH MARCH, 2024
1331
workmen. He deposes that the pay-scales of the
Government as per recommendation of the Pay
Commission was adopted by the Management of
Party II from time to time subject to modifications
depending on the paying capacity of Party II. He
deposes that the implementation of the
recommendation of the Pay Commission had not
become a condition of service and the non-
implementation of the recommendation of the 7th
Pay Commission did not require a notice under
Section 9-A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. He
deposes that it is not feasible to implement the VII
Pay Commission recommendation due to
insufficiency of funds.
25. Witness No. 2 for Party II is the Manager
(Finance) of Party II. She deposes that Party II is a
Co-operative institution being the Apex body of
Primary Diary Co-operative Societies consisting of
milk producers and farmers of the State of Goa. She
deposes that the Cattle Feed Plant plays a vital role
in supplying cattle feed. She deposes that due to
non-availability of certain raw materials locally they
had to procure it from other States. She deposes
that there was raising prices of raw materials. She
deposes that the cattle feed was supplied to farmers
at subsidized rates. She deposes that due to these
reason, Party II suffered substantial losses. She
deposes that the outstanding amount payable for
cattle feed is approximately about Rupees 12 Crores.
She deposes that there is a drop in the sale of the
milk and milk products. She deposes that if the
Seventh Pay Commission recommendation are
implemented, the salary burden would increase by
Rs. 18/- Lakhs to Rs. 20/- Lakhs per month apart
from additional liability to pay Crores of rupees on
payment of arrears.
26. The testimony of Witness No. 1 of Party II is
corroborated by the testimony of Witness No. 2 of
Party II.
27. Party I has adduced oral evidence in favour of
its case. Party II has adduced oral evidence in favour
of its case. The oral evidence is equally balanced
against each other. Therefore, let us look into
documentary evidence to ascertain the truth.
28. By Lease Deed dated 01-10-1984 (Exh. 38
Colly), the Government of Goa leased some land,
building constructed thereon, one milk processing
plant, cattle feed manufacturing plant and allied
equipment/machinery to Party II for 90 years. The
annual rent was Re. 1/-.
29. This Lease Deed states that Party II is a
Co-operative Society registered under the
Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, 1960 as
extended to the Union Territory of Goa, Daman and
Diu.
30. There is nothing on record to show who owns
the shares of Party II. There is also nothing to show
that the Government of Goa exercises any direct or
indirect influence over the activities of Party II.
Therefore, there is nothing to show that Party II is
an Autonomous Body/agency/corporation/Public
Sector Enterprises of the Government of Goa.
31. Circular dated 27-11-2017 (Exh. 27) has been
issued by the Government of Goa. The sum and
substance of the directives in this Circular is that
Public Sector Enterprises/Corporations/Autonomous
Bodies and Agencies were asked to submit proposal
to the Administrative Department concerned for the
implementation of the 7th Pay Commission
recommendation. These proposal are to be
submitted taking into account the financial position
and other circumstances. That, once the approval of
the H.O.D. of the concurred department is obtained,
it was to be submitted to the Finance Department
for analysis and final approval. The proposals can
be implemented only after the approval of Finance
Department.
32. The Circular makes it clear that the Circular
is applicable only to the Public Sector Enterprises/
/Corporations/Autonomous Bodies and Agencies
under a department of the Government. There is no
Evidence to show that Party II is under any
department of the Government. Therefore, the said
Circular does not apply to Party II.
33. The Balance Sheet as on 31-03-2022 is at Exh. 50.
Witness No. 1 for Party II states that it shows a
surplus of Rs. 3,06,99,944.88 ps. As seen above,
Witness No. 2 for Party II has deposed that the
implementation of the recommendations of the 7th
Pay Commission will increase the salary burden by
Rs. 18/ Lakhs to Rs. 20/- Lakhs per month apart from
additional liability of Crores of rupees on payment
of arrears. The Balance Sheet (Exh. 50) does not
show that Party II has the financial strength to bear
the liability.
34. For the reasons stated above, Party I has failed
to prove that the State Government had issued a
Circular dated 27-11-2017 with a directive to
implement the recommendations of the VII Pay
Commission as adopted by the Government of Goa
to employees functioning in Autonomous Bodies,
Agencies, Corporations and Public Sector
Enterprises. Party II has proved that since it is not
Government Body or Autonomous Agency/
1332
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 50
14TH MARCH, 2024
/Corporation/Public Sector Enterprises, the said
Circular dated 27-11-2017 is not directly applicable
to it. Hence, I hold issue No. 1 in the negative and
issue No. 6 in the affirmative.
35. Issue No 2:- The case of the Party I is that,
inspite of the said Circular and their Demand Letter
made to the management, the management failed
to implement the same and this act of the
management is illegal, unjustified and bad in law.
36. As seen above, Circular dated 27-11-2017 is
not applicable to Party II. Therefore, Party I has failed
to prove that the non-implementation of Circular
dated 27-11-2017 inspite of the Demand Letter by
Party I is illegal, unjustified and bad in law. Hence,
I hold issue No. 2 in the negative.
37. Issue No. 3, 4 and 5:- The case of Party I is that,
they are entitled to an order directing the Employer
to implement the recommendation of the VII Central
Pay Commission w. e. f. 01-01-2016. The case of Party I is
that, the Employer is liable to pay the arrears in the
difference between the wages after the
implementation of the 7th Pay Commission
recommendation and before it together with interest
at the rate of 18% per annum from 01-01-2016 till
actual pay.
38. The case of Party I is that, Party II has
implemented the recommendations of the Pay
Commissions including the 6th Pay Commission
recommendation. That by doing so, Party II has made
it a condition of Service. It is also stated that before
the time the workmen were absorbed into the
services of Party II, it was promised that they would
be paid according to the Pay Commission
recommendations. That Party II is bound to
implement the recommendations of the 7th Pay
Commission. That not implementing the said
recommendations without notice violates the
provisions of Sections 9-A of the Industrial
Disputes Act, 1947.
39. Party II has denied the same. It states that it
is not bound by the recommendation of the Pay
Commission. It states that the previous
recommendation of the Pay Commissions were
implemented with modifications.
40. As seen above, Party II is a Co-operative
Society. It is not an Autonomous Body/Agency/
Coperation/Public Sector Enterprise of the
Government.
41. Merely because the recommendations of the
previous Pay Commissions were implemented, it
does not become a condition of service. It could be
an act of convenience.
42. Party II is a Co-operative Society. It could not
have promised the workmen that they would be
paid in accordance with the Pay Commission
recommendations at the time they were taken into
its employment without something in writing. There
is no such written document.
43. Therefore, Party I has failed to prove that
they are entitled to an order directing the Employer/
Party II to implement the recommendations of the
7th Pay Commission. Party I has also failed to prove
that the Employer (Party II) is liable to pay the
arrears in the difference in wages after the
implementation of the VII Pay Commission
recommendation and to pay the same with interest
at the rate of 18% per annum from 01-01-2016 till the
date of actual payment. Party I has also failed to
prove that implementation of the recommendations
of the Pay Commissions had become a condition of
service from 2010 and that non-implementation of
the 7th Pay Commission recommendation without
notice has violated the provisions of Section 9-A of
the Industrial Disputes Act,1947. Hence, I hold
issues No. 3, 4 and 5 in the negative.
44. Issue No. 7:- The case of Party II is that it is
their discretion to implement the recommendations
of the 7th Pay Commission subject to the financial
condition of Party II and approval from the
Competent Authority as made applicable while
adopting the recommendations of the previous Pay
Commission.
45. As seen above, Party II is not bound by the
recommendation of the Pay Commission as they are
not autonomous bodies, agencies, corporations or
Public Sector bodies under the Government.
46. Exh. 27 is a Circular dated 27-11-2017 bearing
O. M. No. 9/1/2010-Fin(DMU)/39 issued by the
Government to public sector enterprises/
corporations/Autonomous bodies and agencies.
This Circular states that the said Public Sector
Enterprise/Corporations/Autonomous Bodies and
Agencies should take into consideration their
financial condition and other factors and
recommend the implementation of revised pay
structure by a proposal to its Administrative
Department. The Administrative Department should
then take the final approval from the Finance
Department.
47. Due to the facts stated above, Party II has
proved
that
the
implementation
of
the
recommendation of the 7th Pay Commission is at
the discretion of Party II subject to its financial
condition and approval from Competent Authority as
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 50
14TH MARCH, 2024
1333
made applicable while adopting the previous Pay
Commission recommendations. Hence, I hold issue
No. 7 in the affirmative.
48. The representative for Party I, Shri P. Gaonkar
has relied upon the law laid down by the Hon’ble
Kerala High Court in Judgment dated 26-05-2016
in Yathendranath T.M v/s State of Kerala WP(C)
No. 33440 of 2011(D). In the said case it has been
held that Kerala Agricultural University is an
autonomous body.
49. In this case, Party II is a Co-operative Society.
It cannot be compared with a university. Hence the
said case-law is not useful in deciding this case.
Hence, I pass the following:-
ORDER
(i)
The claim of Party I is rejected.
(ii)
No orders as to costs.
(iii)
Inform Government accordingly.
