O.P. Bhandari vs Indian Tourism Development ... on 26 September, 1986

In O.P. Bhandari v. Indian Tourism Development Corporation Ltd. & ors. , the Apex Court awarded compensation on the basis of 3.33 years of salary including admissible allowances in lieu of reinstatement and back wages. According to the petitioner, for four years and eight months service left, the petitioner shall be entitled to Rs. 14 lacs approximately towards the salary and allowances inclusive of proficiency linked allowance, Rs. 1.60 lacs towards Bar Compensation allowance and about Rs.11.20 lacs towards layover allowances/hourly flying allowances, in all Rs.26.80 lacs while he is claiming Rs.21.60 lacs towards arrears of salary and allowances inclusive of proficiency linked allowance, Rs.2.75 lacs as arrears of bar allowance and Rs.34.60 lacs towards layover allowance/fly over allowances. This amount seems to be exaggerated and on much higher side. Some of the allowances claimed may not be payable without actual service. Taking overall facts and circumstances of the matter, we are of the considered view that an amount of Rs.15 lacs would be a reasonable and adequate compensation in lieu of reinstatement and the claim of the petitioner towards backwages and other allowances. In other words, this amount of Rs.15 lacs covers full period commencing from the date of termination of petitioners service till the period of his superannuation.
