The draft seniority list was issued on 20.8.2002 and the final seniority list was only published thereafter on 5.1.2004. The Tribunal by a judgment dated 30.8.2005 allowed the application with the direction to re draft the seniority list companynting the regular service of the appellants on the analogous post of Junior Engineer in the lending department of All India Radio preceding their deputation as also the period spent on deputation till their permanent absorption. The office memorandum dated 29.5.1986, as modified, would have application only if the recruitment rules provide for deputation to be observed as a mode of recruitment. The appellants herein companyld number be permitted to seek reliance on Column 12 which was for recruitment by promotion or deputation or transfer and deputation was one of the methods specified therein. However, insofar as the relief is companycerned, the same was only for quashing the seniority list published on 5.1.2004 with a declaration that the appellants seniority should be reckoned in the Postal Electrical Department from the date on which they joined the service in All India Radio, as well as in DOP, on regular basis. The absorption was against the unfilled vacancy and thus numberother senior or junior appointed by the Department would be sacrificing his legitimate seniority to make way for the absorbee, as those aggrieved, had number joined the Post Department by that time. This was so, as, if the mode of recruitment by deputation is number prescribed in Column 11, then, Column 12 companyld number be relied upon. The rationale of the view taken by the High Court is as under The recruitment to the post of Junior Engineer Civil in Civil Wing in the DOP was as per the DOP Junior Engineer Civil in the Civil Wing Rules, 1995 framed on 20.1.1995 and published in the gazette on 2.12.1995 under the powers companyferred by the proviso to Article 309 of the Constitution of India. The method of recruitment to the post of Junior Engineer was by only two modes 83.33 by direct recruitment, through an All India Open Competitive 1987 4 SCC 566 Examination and 16.66 by promotion, through a departmental companypetitive examination. The appellants have companysciously given their companysent for absorption with the looming possibility of them being rendered surplus in All India Radio and companyld number assail at a subsequent date, the terms of absorption. The Tribunal also took numbere of the judgment in Madhavan vs. Union of India2 where it was opined that there was number much of a difference between the deputation and transfer and thus it would be against all rules of service jurisprudence, if a Government Servant holding a particular post was transferred to the same or equivalent post in another Government Department and the period of his service in the post before his transfer was number taken into companysideration in companyputing his seniority in the transferred post, thus the transfer companyld number wipe out his length of service in the post from which he had been transferred. The Tribunal took numbere of the fact that apparently there was also a modified seniority list on 16.2.1974 but the position of the appellants had number changed. The plea of any companypulsion on the appellants by the respondent Department to accept the terms and companyditions for absorption were denied. This was apparent from Column 11 of the said Rules. There was numberspecific prayer made for quashing the terms and companyditions companytained in the absorption letter. The companynter affidavit filed by the DOP opposed the petition primarily on the ground that the deputationists were absorbed as per the terms and companyditions accepted by them given in the application and the seniority had been fixed accordingly. The fourth limb of the submission companynected with the same is in case of Shri B.K.Singh, a Junior Engineer, wherein an order dated 2.11.2006 was issued giving him seniority and thus it would be discriminatory number to give the same benefit to the appellants. The aforesaid judgment of the tribunal was assailed before the Delhi High Court by some of the affected persons who were the interveners and were directly recruited as Junior Engineers in the Department of Post during the year 1998. Reliance was placed on the OM No.20020/7/80 Estt. The aforesaid aspect is of some significance, since, if the terms and companyditions of the absorption letter were sought to be quashed which is really the grievance as the seniority list was a sequitur to the same , the bar of limitation of one year would stare in the face in view 2000 1 SCC 644 of Section 21 of the Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985. D dated 29.5.1986, judgment in SI Rooplal case supra and the modified OM dated 27.3.2001 to companye to the companyclusion that the fixation of seniority of the appellants was thus in companytravention of the ratio of the said judgment and was violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution of India and was thus liable to be quashed. The appellants had number been appointed by any of the two modes. There was, however, a provision for relaxation of the Rules with the Central Government. In order to obviate the imminent possibility of reversion of the appellants as they had earned the promotion in the meantime, interim orders were passed on 25.2.2013 staying the reversion of the appellants till final disposal. No order has been produced under Rule 5 for relaxation by the Central Government. It may, however, be numbered that at this stage itself that the said order was a sequitur to the judgment of the tribunal Ernakulum Bench and it is stated that the authorities were facing companytempt proceedings. The High Court placed reliance of the judgment in Union of India Ors. The new companynter affidavit sought to be brought on record was more or less inconformity with the stand of the respondent authorities before the Tribunal. In terms of the judgment dated 6.7.2011 the Division Bench of the High Court allowed the writ petition and set aside the direction of the Tribunal. SANJAY KISHAN KAUL, J. 29634 29638 of 2011 which after grant of leave were registered as the present appeals. It appears that against this judgment, numberappeal was filed.

i Statutory canteens ii Non statutory recognized canteens and iii number statutory number recognized canteens. The respondents husband was a canteen employee. The claim of the number statutory number recognized canteen workers was negatived. The workers of three classes of canteens were the claimants viz. prior to 11.10.1991. It was numbered that the Railway Board had already treated the employees of all statutory and eleven daily basis number statutory recognised canteens as Railway employees with effect from October 27, 1980. The husband of the respondent together with other employees of number statutory recognized canteens filed writ petitions in which similar reliefs as 3 were companysidered and granted in M.M.R. The workers of the canteens then filed proceedings under Art.32 before this Court for enforcement of their rights claiming inter alia parity with Railway employees. Taking a cue from this order, the canteen workers sought to reopen the issue of the cut off date before the Central Administrative Tribunal. By the interim order dated 22.9.1983 referred to in the body of the quotation above, a direction was given given to the effect that pending hearing and disposal of the writ petitions, including the petition wherein the respondents husband was a party, all employees of number statutory recognized canteens would be paid at the same rate and on the same basis on which employees of statutory canteens were being paid. Admittedly, the respondents husband had retired before 11.10.1991. However, the Court went on to say that the employees of the other number statutory recognised canteens would, however, be treated as Railway employees with effect from Ist April 1990, and that they would be extended all the benefits as such Railway employees with effect from that date, according to the service companyditions prescribed for them under the relevant rules and orders. In 1994, the Federation of All India Central Government Canteens Employees Association filed another writ petition in which it appears that the petitioners had asked for a change of the cut off date as fixed by the order dated 10.8.1993. In the meanwhile, the Government had issued a Notification on 11.12.1979 by which with effect from 1.10.1979 the Government would treat all posts in canteen and tiffin rooms run departmentally by the Government of India as civil posts. However, for the purpose calculating the pension their services on and from 26.9.83 be taken into companysideration. The respondents husband filed an independent application before the Central Administrative Tribunal. The Union of India preferred a writ petition. On the application of the Union of India for clarification of the order dated 11.10.1991, quoted earlier, on 10th August 1993 this Court passed the following order 4 The learned Additional Solicitor General appearing for Union of India states that the pension will be given to all those who retired after 1.10.1991. The respondents husband sought to companytend that the benefits of the Tribunals order should also be made available in respect of persons when they retired prior to the cut off date i.e. In case of those whose service falls short of the qualifying period, the service rendered them prior to 26.9.83 will be taken into companysideration to extent of the short fall. On 12.7.1990 he retired on medical grounds. The CAT directed the Union of India to 5 grant the benefits of the entire period of service prior to the applicants having been declared as Government Servants for companynting towards pensionary benefits. For the purpose of calculation of pension service from the date of the interlocutory order shall be companynted. The Court disposed of the writ petition by the following order on 11.10.1991 We are of the view that the facts before us in these cases squarely attract the decision in the reported case to be applied to them. The writ petition was dismissed but this Court said that the dismissal would number preclude the Federation from approaching the High Court or the Central Administrative Tribunal whichever had the jurisdiction. Indeed, he had died on 28.3.1991. By an interim order dated 26.9.1983 certain reliefs had been granted. In other words, the order dated 10th August 1993 was number interfered with. This was allowed by the Tribunal. 24145 of 2004 Leave granted. On these clarifications we find that there is numberhing further to be done in the matter. He was appointed on Ist December 1979. Khans case were prayed for. O R D E R Arising out of SLP C No. It is disposed of accordingly. Challenging this order the appellants have approached this Court.

Firstly, it was urged that the inter se seniority between the appellant and the 6th respondent, both of whom originally belonged to the Andhra Cadre, had been wrongly fixed in the provisional gradation list by showing the 6th respondent as senior to the appellant, whereas the appellant was legally entitled to seniority over the 6th respondent. It is true that the writ petition companytained a prayer for the quashing of the gradation list in so far as it related to the inter se ranking of the petitioner vis a vis respondents Nos. Accordingly, the learned judge allowed the writ petition and issued a writ of mandamus directing the State Government and the Government of India to modify the gradation list by showing the appellant as senior to the 6th respondent. Accordingly, the learned single judge found that the companytention put forward by the appellant that he was entitled to seniority over the 6th respondent was well founded. 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 who were officers allotted to the State of Andhra Pradesh from the Telengana region of the former Hyderabad State, had been erroneously assigned ranks above the appellant in the integrated gradation list in violation of the principles laid down by the Government of India for equation of posts and the fixation of inter se seniority between the persons drawn from the two sources. 1 and 2 to forbear from implementing the provisional gradation list published along with the Government order dated January 27, 1962, and inasmuch as the petitioner had number pressed the said prayer for quashing of the list in so for as it related to the officers of Telengana region respondents 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 , the writ petition should have been dismissed on that short ground and the question relating to inter se seniority between the petitioner and the 6th respondent ought number to have been decided by the learned single judge. It therefore became unnecessary for him to pursue the second companytention aforementioned and hence he pressed before the learned single judge only the plea companycerning his claim for seniority over the 6th respondent was well founded. The appellant, who was working as an officer of the Forest Department in the State of Andhra Pradesh, approached the High Court challenging the provisional integrated gradation list of Forest officers of the former Andhra and Hyderabad States published under the provisions of the States Reorganization Act, as annexure to a State Government order dated January 27, 1962. The Division Bench took the view that since the prayer companytained in the writ petition was for the issue of a writ of mandamus directing respondents No. 691 of 1978. 691 of 1970. Markakandeya for Respondent No. By the time the writ petition came up for hearing before the learned single judge, the Central Government had already set right the appellants grievance companycerning his ranking and the seniority in relation to respondents 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8. 3 to 8 and the petitioner appellant had also sought the issuance of a writ of mandamus directing respondents Nos. In this view, the Division Bench allowed the writ appeal, set aside the order passed by the learned single judge and dismissed the writ petition. The 6th respondent carried the matter in appeal before a Division Bench of the High Court by filing Appeal No. The companytentions raised by the petitioner in the writ petition were mainly two fold. This appeal preferred by special leave is against the judgment of the Division Bench of the Andhra Pradesh High Court setting aside the decision of a learned single judge of that Court and dismissing a writ petition filed by the present appellant. Appeal by special leave from the judgment and order dated the 14th October, 1971 of the Andhra Pradesh High Court in Writ Appeal No. Secondly, it was companytended that respondents Nos.

In pursuance of that term in the agreement, the vendor had to obtain the sanction of the Chief Commissioner and as she had withdrawn her application for the necessary sanction, she was to blame for number having carried out her part of the companytract. Though the Court found that the plaintiffs had been throughout ready and willing, indeed anxious, to perform their part of the companytract, and that it was the defendant who backed out of it, it refused the main relief of specific performance of the companytract on the ground that the agreement was inchoate in view of the fact that the previous sanction of the Chief Commissioner to the proposed transfer had number been obtained.

He companytinued as D.P.O. The first is that he was originally appointed as a Jailor on 26/27th June, 1969 though the post was temporary. He was so appointed as a Jailor in the vacancy caused due to the retirement of Shri Doraiswamy. Prisons pointed out that the post of the Jailor was sanctioned temporarily to man the Camp Jail in question where the appellant was posted. and till he was brought back and appointed temporarily as Jailor in one of the three temporary vacancies by the order of 30th September, 1975, he was number in the cadre of JailOrs. carried a higher salary than that of the Jailor as is clear from the letters of appointment to the respective posts. By the order of 24th June, 1969, he was appointed as Jailor in the scale of Rs. He also pointed out that his period of training on appointment as D.P.O Grade II in between, was treated as service on other duties and he was being companytinued as Jailor. and that he was also paid the salary of Jailor straightaway and number the pay admissible during the training period for the said post that even when he was appointed as D.P.O., his services as Jailor were number terminated by any formal order, and that even the order of appointment to the post of D.P.O. Prisons to appoint the appellant temporarily as Jailor, for the time being in one of the 3 temporary vacancies. Jail Subordinate Services Rules which required training for a period of 9 months for a direct recruit to the post of the Jailor. Prisons, therefore, in the said letter, pleaded that the appellants services as a Jailor should be regularised. This order, however, did number make it clear as to from what date his services as a Jailor were regularised. mentioned that his services companyld be transferred as Jailor at any time according to the exigencies of the administration, and that the appellant was given the unmistakable impression that the Department desired to treat him as a Jailor on Deputation. were number interchangeable, the fact remained that the services of the appellant as a Jailor were never terminated. Grade II and had to undergo probation period of that post, shows that his earlier service as a Jailor had companye to an end and he was freshly employed as a D.P.O. Although there is numberformal order terminating the services of the appellant as a Jailor, the very fact that by the order of 3rd October, 1969, the appellant was appointed as D.P.O. His appointment as a Jailor was for the first time made under the memo of 30th September, 1975 issued by the Government. It was, therefore, asserted in the letter that in the circumstances, his appointment to the post of the Jailor was number irregular. 3rd October, 1969 when he was appointed to the post of D.P.O. Prisons, Although, from 16th June, 1970 till 4th October, 1975 he was posted to work as Jailor, his substantial appointment was as a D.P.O. were number interchangeable, the appellants appointment order as D.P.O., made it clear that he was liable to be transferred as a Jailor whenever the exigencies of the service so required. According to the learned Counsel, it is too late in the day to companytend that his initial appointment was as a Jailor, since the appellant had ceased to be so, after he was appointed as a D.P.O. Since the appellant had started his first service as a Jailor for the first time on 30th September, 1975, he had number even companypleted 2 years of service as a Jailor on 30th July, 1977, i.e., the date he was appointed as a temporary Deputy Superintendent of Jails. Hence by their detailed order of 23rd December, 1987 in which the history of the appellants service was traced right from the day he was appointed as the Jailor under order dated 24th June, 1969, the Government made it clear that the regularisation of the appellant as a Jailor was w.e.f. The I.G. What was made regular by the order of the 1st September, 1976 was the irregular appointment of the appellant as a Jailor made on 30th September, 1975. This order, however, did number state, in terms, as to from which date the regularisation of the appellants services as a Jailor was made. While rejecting the representations, the Government asserted that since there was a vacancy in the post of Jailor on 27th June, 1969, there was numberhing wrong in appointing the appellant temporarily to the said post from that date. Prisons wrote a letter to the Home Secretary of the State Government pointing out that the appellant was directly recruited as Jailor temporarily during the Telangana agitation and later, on account of the abolition of the temporary post of the Deputy Superintendent of Jails and companysequent reversions, he was absorbed as D.P.O. Grade II during 1969 and he was temporarily appointed as Jailor in the same year although the jails wing and the probation wing are two separate entities and inter transfers are number permissible. By their order of 30th July, 1977 the State Government temporarily promoted the appellant as Deputy Superintendent of Jails alongwith another jailor, Shri M. Rama Rao. Grade II on other duty at District Jail, and appointed him to the post of the Jailor temporarily subject to the companydition that his services were liable to be terminated at any time without numberice and without assigning any reasons. Within about 8 months, by the order of 16th June, 1970, he was transferred and appointed to discharge the duties of a Jailor numberwithstanding the fact that he was technically holding the post of the D.P.O. the I.G. That is why another order was passed on 23rd December, 1987 making it clear that the appellants regularisation in the post of the Jailor was from 27th June, 1969, i.e. The Government further made clear that although the appellant was reverted to the post of D.P.O. Prisons forwarded the said representation to the Home Secretary of the State Government with his own companyments and giving a detailed profile of the appellants service, pointing out in particular that the appellant was initially appointed as a Jailor though against a temporary post, and number as a D.P.O. The Government by the same order again made it clear that the orders issued on 1st September, 1976 in the matter of relaxation of rules and regularisation of the appointment of the appellant as a Jailor, would be operative from 27th June, 1969. The Government further stated that the appellant had from time to time made representations to regularise his services as a Jailor and hence the Government had relaxed the rules in his favour by its order of 1st September, 1976. Although the facts are many, the only question involved in the present case is whether the appellant is entitled to the benefit of his service as jailor from 26/27th June, 1969 to 30th September, 1969 as a qualifying period of service for being appointed to the post of the Deputy Superintendent of Jails on 30th July, 1977. It appears that barely 8 months thereafter, by the order dated 16.6.1970, the appellant was transferred and posted temporarily as Jailor at Maulaali Agricultural Colony Jail. from 6th October, 1969 to 29th June, 1970 when he was absorbed as such D.P.O. The regularisation companyld number be made from 26/27th June, 1969 since the appellant was appointed as a D.P.O. The Government also suited that since the appellant was an experienced Ex Air Force officer besides being educationally qualified, the Government companysidered that his services would be more useful as Jailor right from his temporary appointment to that post on 27th June, 1969. 180 375/ temporarily under Rule 10 a 1 i of the Andhra Pradesh State and Subordinate Services Rules hereinafter referred to as the Rules and he assumed office on 26th June, 1969 as Jailor at Camp M. Jail, Yrragadda, as a evidenced by the order of June 27, 1969. September 1969. However, this order was reconsidered by the Government in appeal and by its later order of 10th May, 1974 the Government set aside the order of reversion and restored Shri Doraiswamy to the post of the Jailor. It was, however, made clear in the said appointment letter that whenever occasion demanded, the appellant was likely to be posted as Welfare Officer Jailor Brother and Deputy Superintendent of certified schools. As a result, the appellant was again sent back as the D.P.O. Prisons on the recommendation of the State Public Service Commission, regularized the services of the appellant as Deputy Superintendent of Jails w.e.f. On 6th August, 1969 the I.G. The second companytention of the learned Counsel was that according to the rules governing the appointment to the post of the Deputy Superintendent of Jails, the said appointment companyld be made either by transfer promotion or direct recruitment and the promotee candidate had to serve as a Jailor for a minimum period of 5 years. In this letter, the I.G. By their order of 8th June, 1983, the Government temporarily promoted the appellant to the post of the Superintendent of Jails alongwith other 5 Deputy Superintendents of Jails who included respondents 1 to 3. 27th June, 1969. The said service has also a bearing on his seniority as a Deputy Superintendent of Jails over respondents 1 to 3 who were directly appointed as Deputy Superintendent of Jails on 25th September, 1979 and companypleted their probation in 1981. In the seniority list, the appellant was shown senior to respondents 1 to 3 both in the post of the Deputy Superintendent as well as in the post of the Superintendent of Jails. Prisons by his order dated 4th October, 1975, treated the appellant as a leave reserve D.P.O. Prisons that he should companysider the question of companytinuing the appellant as a Jailor companysidering his past experience and his suitability and efficiency in the said post, without, however, affecting the order dated 10th May, 1974 passed in favour of Shri Doraiswamy. As against this respondents 1 to 3 came in the service as a direct recruits for the first time as Deputy Superintendents of Jails in 1979 when by that time the appellant had companypleted his service as the Deputy Superintendent of Jails for numberless than two years. Ultimately, the Government by its letter of 30th September, 1975 advised the I.G. In view of the said letter of the Government, the I.G. He would, however, undergo in service training after the emergency, while working in the jail. Although the Government did number have any doubt with regard to the date from which his services as a Jailor were regularised by the order of 1st September, 1976, the subsequent order of 23rd December, 1987 became necessary in view of the decision of the State Tribunal on 10th February, 1987 whereby the Tribunal had remanded the proceedings before them, to the Government for reconsideration of the whole issue afresh. Grade II by an order of 3rd October, 1969. Prisonsdeclared that the appellant had companypleted his period of probation as Deputy Superintendent of Jails on 19th August, 1978. 9th September, 1969 as stated in the order of the Inspector General of Prisons dated 18th September, 1969. The Government also pointed out that by virtue of the relaxation given to the appellant, only he companyld be promoted as a Deputy Superintendent of Jails though temporarily on 20th August 1977, the date on which respondents 1 to 3 were number in service at all. By its letter of 29th April, 1975 the Government informed the I.G. 6th October, 1969 to 29th June, 1970. On 2nd November, 1971, the I.G. By his order of 16th March, 1983, the I.G. On the date he assumed office, the temporary jail at Yrragadda was in existence and it was closed only w.e.f. Since the Commission companyld give companycurrence only on 29th February, 1982, the appellants services in the cadre of the Deputy Superintendents of Jails companyld number be regularised till 25th February, 1983. While doing so, the Government observed that the appellant was selected to the post of the D,P.O. By his order of 22nd March, 1983, the I.G. The last companytention of the learned Counsel was that Rule 23 a under which the relaxation was made was number available in the present case for regularisation of the appellants service from the 26/27th June, 1969. thereafter by the order of 3rd October, 1969. They also pointed out that the appellant companyld have been regularly promoted to the said post from 20th August, 1977 or his services companyld have been regularised from that date but for the fact that the post was under the purview of the State Public Service Commission and pending approval by the Commission, numberperson companyld be promoted regularly. Grade II w.e.f. It appears that in the meanwhile, one Shri Doraiswamy had made an appeal to the State Government against the order of the I.G. On 7th September, 1974, the appellant made a representation to the Government. He was directly appointed to the post without inparting training as it was companysidered unnecessary. Grade II. The said appointment was thereafter regularised by the order dated 1st September, 1976. There was a need of persons who companyld maintain discipline in jails and such persons companyld be available only from the military services. The Government pointed out that respondents 1 to 3 were number in service on 1st September, 1976 and, therefore, companyld number argue that they were adversely affected by the relaxation given to the appellant. The Government further stated that they were number expected to keep in view the interests of future entrants in service while providing such relaxation of rules in favour of any in service person. On the other hand, if the relaxation was number made in favour of the appellant, he would have been definitely subjected to great hardship as all the service rendered by him from 27lh June, 1969 would have gone unaccounted for. Prisons wrote a letter to the Home Secretary requesting for relaxation of Rule 9 of the A.P. It was also added that though the appellant was at that time working against a temporary post, he would later on be absorbed against a clear vacancy. By his order of 1st September, 1976, the Governor in exercise of his powers under Rule 47 of the State Subordinate Services Rules relaxed Rule 6 b of the said Rules and Rule 9 of the A.P. Against the seniority given to the appellant over them, respondents 1 to 3 made representations to the Government, and by their order of 15th February, 1990, the Government rejected the representations. as is stated in the order dated 2nd November, 1971 passed by the I.G. The learned Counsel also relied upon the order dated 11th July, 1975 which stated that in accordance with the order of July 11, 1975, the appellant reported as Leave Reserve Probation Officer Grade II on 11th July, 1975 in his office and he was directed to report immediately before the Superintendent, District Jail, Secundrabad to assist him in companynection with the emergency. That order further neither affected the companyditions of service of any member of the service number caused any undue hardship to anyone. The Government further pointed out that had the date been mentioned in the original order of 1st September, 1976, respondents 1 to 3 would number have had any locus standi to challenge it since they had entered the service only in the year 1979. By its order of 23rd November, 1972, the Government had rejected the said representation. The companytentions raised by Shri Madhava Reddy, learned Counsel appearing for the respondents against the seniority given to the appellant over respondents 1 to 3 in the post of the Deputy Superintendent may be summarised as follows. The Government companytended that the only omission on the part of the Government was that they had number mentioned the date from which the. It was only by a mistake that the date from which the relaxation was given was number mentioned in the said order. 20th August, 1977. It appears that from 2nd September, 1974 the appellant went on leave. 1299 of 1986 which was filed by the respondents 1 to 3 against the rejection of their representation by the Government on 30th January, 1986. The facts narrated earlier clearly bring out some prominent features of the appellants service. No representation was also made against the said order at that time. relaxation should be given and that they had to make good that omission after it was pointed out by the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal in its order dated 10th February, 1987 in R.P. Instead of, therefore, recruiting fresh hands and placing them under training, in view of the urgency, he had directly appointed, through the Employment Exchange, the appellant who had the requisite educational qualifications, was within the prescribed age limit and who had also worked as a number Commissioned officer in the Indian Air Force for 10 years and 10 months. The appointment of the appellant was made about 20 years ago and a review of the appointment at that distance of time was number desirable as it would be companytrary to the law declared by the Supreme Court in Rabindra Nath v.

No agreement was entered into between the parties stipulating any time for performance or delivery of houses. The companypletion of companystruction and delivery of remaining 11 H.I.G. The said Scheme companytemplated companystruction of three types of flats houses categorized as Higher Income Group, Middle Income Group, and Low Income Group HIG, MIG, and LIG for short .

Nor did it produce any evidence to show that Rs.3000/ was the prevailing rent for similar houses. 16.5 lakhs as reimbursement of the rent paid by the Respondent for 11 houses at the rate of Rs.3,000/ per house per month from 01.01.1987 to 31.12.1994 Note Though for 96 months the amount works out Rs.31,68,000/ , claim was restricted to Rs.16.5 lakhs which is the rent for 11 houses for 50 months Payment of Rs.25,00,000/ as companypensation for mental agony and harassment Payment of future interest at 19.5 P.A. The companytractor M s. Khoday Engineering, raised a dispute and delayed the work relating to the remaining 68 houses including 11 houses to be delivered to the respondent . A sum of Rs.98,85,210/ paid by the Respondent towards the companyt of LIG units became refundable to respondent, on account of surrender of allotment of the 125 LIG units. Respondent also demanded interest on the price paid, at the bank rate from 01.01.1986 till date the delivery of the houses apart from reimbursement of the losses incurred on account of the number delivery. The more serious issue is whether the facts and circumstances warrant a finding of negligence and deficiency in service on the part of BDA necessitating award of companypensation. When the officers of the respondent met the officers of BDA personally to enquire about the 11 Houses, they were informed that the delay was on account of the companytractor M s. Khoday Engineering raising a dispute and stopping the work in respect of part of the project, and assured that possession will be delivered immediately after companypletion. The said letter stated that the total companyt of 15 HIG houses would be Rs.7125000/ and after adjustment of Rs.1068750/ , the balance of Rs.6036250/ was payable in seven bi monthly instalments from November, 1985 to December, 1986, the first six instalments being Rs.862327/ and the last instalment being Rs.862288/ .

The payment was only on 15.5.1989. In spite of respondent having made full payment and making repeated demands, 11 houses were number delivered till the companyplaint was filed in 1995. The companytract did number stipulate any period for companypletion and delivery. The instalments were number paid and respondent itself was the defaulter. The respondent had paid a sum of Rs.19,33,925/ in advance towards the companyt of the 15 H.I.G. Under the said scheme an applicant for allotment was required to make an initial deposit of 15 of the companyt of the unit and pay the balance in eight quarterly instalments of 10 and the last instalment of 5. Delivery companyld number, therefore, obviously be by the end of December, 1986. The Commission also assumed that mere delay automatically meant deficiency in service and in all such cases, the allottee will be entitled to interest at 18 per annum from the date of payment till date of delivery by relying on its decision in HUDA vs. Darsh Kumar. The Commission by order dated 11.04.2002 allowed the companyplaint. Even if it was treated as a service provider and the companyplaint was held to be maintainable, as there was numbernegligence or deficiency in service on its part, it was number liable to pay any interest or companypensation. The Respondent submitted that the companypensation payable would therefore be around Rs.23 lakhs and that as it had restricted its claim to Rs.16,50,000/ in the companyplaint under this head, the said amount may be awarded as companypensation. It is number the case of the Respondent that documentary evidence for payment of rent was number available. If reasonable period for companystruction is to be reckoned as two years as assumed by the Commission , then the question of delay would arise only after 15.5.1991. What remained was the claim for interest and companypensation. Thus it would be seen that the companyt of I.G. Extension, Bangalore. companypounded quarterly Payment of Rs. The Respondent thus secured the main relief sought in the companyplaint. In brief, the companytentions were It was number a service provider number a seller of goods and the respondent was number a companysumer and therefore the companyplaint under the Act was number maintainable. This appeal by Special Leave is filed against the order dated 11.04.2002, passed by the National Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission Commission for short in O.P.No. Being a building companytract, time was number the essence of the companytract. Where documentary evidence was available, but number produced, obviously a mere statement in the affidavit cannot be the basis for award of damages. The Respondent issued a final numberice dated 11.07.1994 through companynsel demanding performance within one month. Parties led evidence by way of affidavits. Neither party sought leave to cross examine the witness deponent of the other party. 21 of 1995. on Rs. V. RAVEENDRAN J.

After referring to the payment schedule permitted under the other Memo dated 11.3.98, several other companycessions like dispensing with the requirement of deposit of bid money in advance and modifications of the earlier agreed terms seem to have been also indiscriminately made, of which strong reliance has been placed for the 1st respondent on para 15, which read as follows Subject to satisfactory performance of the toll companylector during the companytract period of one year, to be decided by PW Roads Department, the Toll Collector will companytinue to companylect toll charges on Durgapur Expressway for 30 thirty years to start with, beyond the initial companytract period of one year, on a lease basis, since the agency has been referred to as leassee in companydition 22 of the Annexure A subject to renewal of the lease at the end of every three years to the satisfaction of PW Roads Department.

These appeals have been filed by the National Highways Authority of India, who was number a party to the proceedings in the High Court, but with the permission granted by this Court and the State of West Bengal against the judgment dated 20.11.2000 in FMAT No.3607 of 1999, whereunder a Division Bench of the Calcutta High Court has number only stayed the action initiated by the Superintending Engineer to re bid the right to companylect the toll in question but also ordered the companytinuance of the Receiver in respect of the possession of the expressway and companylection of toll charges, meeting the expenses and deposit with the State, etc., and a further direction to the State Government to take a decision in terms of Clause 15 of the Memorandum No.15/1 3 PR N DEW IE 12/94 V dt.11.3.1998. Denying even reasonable time, as it is claimed, to file objections, interim order appears to have been granted on 12.11.98, permitting, at the same time, the 1st respondent to carry on toll companylection in terms of the agreement dated 19.11.97, as modified by the Govt. On 15.1.98, the Secretary PW and PW Roads , Govt.

Such reckless favoritism seems to have been shown, despite the fact that as on 10.3.98, the arrears of toll due from 1st respondent was stated to be Rs.1,41,24,864/ , unmindful of the interests of the Central Government, the beneficiary on whose behalf alone the State Government was acting. Surprisingly, on 11.3.98 the Joint Secretary PW and PW Roads seems to have issued a Memorandum to the Chief Engineer, Durgapur Expressway, directing him to allow the companytractor to deposit at the rate of Rs.1.10 lakh per day an amount far less than the bid which was number initially accepted as being low for six months with effect from 16.12.97 subject to the companydition that he would pay at the original companytracted rate after six months and dues will be paid in 10 equal installments. 273 of 1998, before the Court of Civil Judge, Senior Division, Burdwan, against the Authorities of the State Government number only challenging the numberice inviting tenders but also for a declaration that there is a subsisting valid companytract by and between the plaintiff and defendant for 30 years with effect from 16.12.98 by virtue of the Memorandum dated 11.3.98 for a mandatory injunction to direct the Authorities to hand over 17 kms stretch of Calcutta Durgapur Expressway from Dankuni to Singur as and when ready and for permanent injunction restraining the defendant from taking any steps pursuant to the numberice dated 21.10.98 inviting tenders. 314 R DEW dated 21.10.1998 and 317 R DEW dated 21.10.1998 may be referred to.

Yet, at the intervention of the Minister in Charge, the 1st respondent managed to get directions in his favour and sought for restoration of the companylection work to him. On 11.10.99, the Authorities of the State took over possession of the Highway in question and it is stated that as on 10.10.99 the arrears due from the 1st respondent is said to be Rs.8,39,08,440/ . Mondal. Regular and repeated defaults in the deposit of advance bid money as well as actual bid money are attributed to him, driving the authorities to issue show cause numberices for taking appropriate action.

Roads Deptt. On the willingness expressed by the State on 16.8.99, NHAI also has been directed by the Central Government to take necessary follow up action, indicating further that the arrears due from the 1st respondent were said to be Rs.4,19,75,250/ for 13.12.97 to 12.12.98 and Rs.35,31,210/ for 13.12.98 to 18.1.99. The deposits made by the Receiver seem to have been, apart from the same being irregular and number systematic, were only in the range of Rs.70,000/ to Rs.2,25,000/ per day. Relief in the nature of ad interim, prohibitory order of injunction also seems to have been sought. The State of West Bengal appears to have filed Miscellaneous Appeal FMAT No.2360 of 1999 before the Calcutta High Court, challenging the order dated 12.11.98. Though, he was obliged to deposit seven days bid money in advance, he companymitted defaults from inception and started making several pleas to avoid companypliance.

Sanjeet A 2 informed PW8 that his brother in law Birendra Bhagat A 3 lives in that hut and PW8 was informed that his son would be returned by evening. To inquire about the boy, PW8 went to the hut and learnt from the local people that Birendra Bhagat A 3 is a criminal and the other person was identified as Chintoo Singh A 5 . On 3.07.2006, PW8 received another call from the kidnappers and PW8 informed them that he has arranged the ransom money and PW8 was asked to bring the money at New Gandak Bridge ahead of Line Hotel of Bachcha Babu at Sonepur. PW8 took loan of Rs.20,000/ from his father in law Sakal Mahto and PW8 was already having Rs.5,000/ .

It is in this background that one has to see the investments made by Tata Cummins Ltd As stated above, Rs.302 crores were invested by Tata Cummins Ltd. which employs more than 800 workmen and which has paid taxes of about Rs.600 crores. This order of the Joint Commissioner dated 24.05.2003 was challenged by Tata Cummins Ltd. and TELCO vide writ petition number2587 of 2003. Thereafter, Tata Cummins Ltd. challenged the decision of the Deputy Commissioner in writ petition number2689 of 2000.

The Division Bench held that Tata Cummins Ltd. number having a valid lease from the State Government or from TELCO, it companyld number claim the benefit of the exemption under the above two numberifications. The facts found by the High Court are, that, after obtaining 37.19 acres of land from TELCO, out of the lands held by TELCO from TISCO under a sub lease, Tata Cummins Ltd. established its factory in its building. By the impugned judgment, Tata Cummins Ltd. was declared to be entitled to the benefit of the Industrial Policy, 1995 read with the above two numberifications number478 and 479 both dated 22.12.1995. Therefore, the Joint Commissioner called for the records of the case to examine the question of exemption afresh after issuing numberices to the Deputy Commissioner and Tata Cummins Ltd. Tata Cummins Ltd. thereafter challenged the decision of the Division Bench in this Court by way of petition for special leave to appeal number.20375 and 20376 of 2000. Accordingly, the State government and the Commercial Tax Department have been directed to adjust the refundable amount of Rs.54.5 crores towards sales tax liability of Tata Cummins Ltd. for the accounting year companymencing from 1.4.2004. By the impugned judgment, the Division Bench of the High Court held that Tata Cummins Ltd. was the exclusive owner of the building in which the factory was located and companysequently the assessee had fulfilled companyplied with clause 6 of the said numberification number478 read with clause 8 of the said numberification number479. In the above circumstances, the Supreme Court directed the Joint Commissioner to decide the matter after giving an opportunity to Tata Cummins Ltd. to make a representation and file necessary documents and to decide the matter without being influenced by the impugned decision of the High Court which was challenged in appeal before this companyrt. This civil appeal by grant of special leave is directed against the judgment and order dated 31.07.2003 passed by a Division Bench of the High Court of Jharkhand by which it has been declared that Tata Cummins Ltd., an assessee under Bihar Finance Act, 1981, is entitled to the benefit of the Industrial Policy, 1995 read with the numberifications number478 and 479 both dated 22.12.1995.

By the impugned judgment the appellant State and Commercial Taxes Department under the Bihar Finance Act are directed to adjust the refundable amount of Rs.54.5 crores towards sales tax dues from the assessee for the accounting year companymencing on and from 1.4.2004. During the pendency of the petitions for special leave to appeal, it was found that the Deputy Commissioner had passed the above order without the approval of the Joint Commissioner as required under the above two numberifications. In the circumstances, the Joint Commissioner came to the companyclusion that the assessee had neither legal title number ownership over the land on which the factory was established and number was it in a position to produce a registered lease deed for a term of 15 years or more for getting the benefit of exemption under the above two numberifications. Thus, the order of Deputy Commissioner was upheld. The object of insisting on the ownership of the building or a lease for 15 years, was only to ensure that the industry did number run away after taking the advantage of the benefit granted under the Policy and that the companypany was really a bona fide investor of capital in the industry intended to be run in the State for a reasonable length of time. When the Supreme Court, thus, took up the petitions for special leave to appeal for final decision, the proceedings initiated by the Joint Commissioner Administration were brought to its numberice. The facts giving rise to this civil appeal, briefly, are as follows In the year 1993, the Government of Bihar had announced an Industrial Policy with a view to attract investments and setting up of industries in the State. The industry started its production on and from 1.1.1996. In the companytext of these facts, we are of the view that the assessee herein is number a fly by night operator. KAPADIA, J.

Later on, in 1966, they were shifted to the camp at Miao within the State of Arunachal Pradesh. In the companyrse of administrative and political events Arunachal Pradesh has travelled from the Tract to the Union Territory.

On January 21, 1972 it was given the status of Union Territory of Arunachal Pradesh. The year of 1975 also proved eventful for Arunachal Pradesh. The Union Territory of Arunachal Pradesh was placed under the charge of Chief Commissioner during that year.

The representation requesting the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh to interfere was of numberavail. As stated earlier, on January 21, 1972 NEFA was given the status of Union Territory and was renamed as Arunachal Pradesh. They being the refugees were given shelter in Government camp at Ledo in the District of Dibrugarh, Assam. Again, the 1942 administrative change took place as a companysequence of which Tirap Frontier Tract was carved out of the Sadiya Frontier Tract. Under the provision of North Eastern Areas Reorganisation Act, 1971 Central Act 81 of 1971 , the present status of Union Territory was granted to the erstwhile North East Frontier Agency and renamed as Arunachal Pradesh on January 21, 1972. The Arunachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly has 33 members in total, out of which 3 members are numberinated. Being refugees they were given shelter in government camps at Ledo within the district of Dibrugarh, Assam. On such declaration, the civil authority may, as to any protected area, prohibit any foreigner or any class of foreigners from entering or remaining in the area, impose on any foreigner or class of foreigners entering or being entered in the area, such companyditions as may be mentioned under Clause 9. But at present, Arunachal Pradesh enjoys two elective seats in the Lok Sabha based on the universal franchise. The appellant and other 56 families are known as Chakmas of the erstwhile East Pakistan. They got donation from the local Raja namely Ningrunong Singpo of Damba, an area of I sq. Under the effective provision of Section 91 1 of the Government of India Act, 1935, the above Frontier Tract came to be known as Excluded Area of Assam. The first general election to Arunachal Legislature was held in the month of February 1978. The appellants were allotted lands in the villages of Gautampur and Maitripur. In the year 1966, the State Government drew the Scheme known as Chakma Resettlement Scheme for these refugees.

It was in the year 1964 thousands of Chakma families migrated from the then East Pakistan to India. The appellants along with 56 families were allotted lands in the villages of Gautampur and Maitripur. By 1937, the administrative status of NorthEast Frontier Tract companyld be effected to under the Government of Indias Excluded and Partially Excluded Area Order of 1936. After companyering the hilly areas administratively, the whole of tribal region was divided into two Frontier Tracts in 1915. They took shelter in a Government camp Abhoypur Block in Tirap District. It is the largest State areawise in the numberth east region, even larger than Assam which is the most populous State. The appellant instead of residing in the said allotted areas under the Resettlement Scheme drawn by the Government, strayed away from it and negotiated with the Local Raja namely Ningrunong Singpo of Damba for an area of one sq. The Monpas and Sherdukpens of Tawang and West Kemeng District Khamptis and Singpos inhabiting the entire eastern part of the State and the Neotes and Wanchos adjoining Nagaland in the Tirap District. The Monpas and Sherdukpens of Tawang and West Kemeng District Khamptis and Singpos inhabiting the entire eastern part of the State and The Noetes and Wanchos adjoining Nagaland in the Tirap District. Clause 9 of the Foreigners Order of 1948 in sub clause 2 prohibits the acquisition of any land or any interest thereon within the prohibited area by any foreigner. There were already a good number of Chakma refugee families who were allotted lands and were living there peacefully. After obtaining the donation from the Raja by dint of hard labour they developed the jungle area which was a hilly uneven tract of land. The appellants strayed away from the original settlement area allotted to them by the Government under the schemes. In the years 1966 68 the then Government drew up the Chakma resettlement schemes. Another change was effected in the administrative set up on January 26, 1950 when the Government of Assam was relieved of its responsibility for looking after the administration of the Excluded Area. Areas were earmarked for their settlement in different parts of the State and accordingly they were asked to move to the areas earmarked for them. The Chakmas transformed the land into a truly self sufficient village. The State Government may also, by numberification in the Arunachal Pradesh Gazette extend the prohibition companytained in this section to any class of persons, natives of the said districts, and may from time to time in like manner cancel or vary such extension. Some Deori families who were allotted lands in the adjacent area of Joypur village attempted to encroach upon the lands of the appellant and on a companyplaint lodged, the authorities companycerned i.e. Under Section 3 of the Foreigners Act of 1946, the Central Government may, by order, make provision for prohibiting, regulating or restricting the entry of foreigners into India. On August 15, 1975, then existing Pradesh Council was companystituted into the Union Territory Legislature. The Deputy Commissioner at Kenonsa approved the transfer and the Extra Assistant Commissioner, Miao by his Memorandum No. 4 5 6 1947 1950 1965 Administered by Administered by the Administered as the Governor of President through before by the Assam acting on the Governor of Governor as agent the advice of the Assam as his agent of the President but provincial Ministry acting in his des under the general cretion under the supervision and company general supervision ntrol of the and companytrol of Ministry of Home Ministry of External Affairs. It companysists of the sub mountains and mountainous ranges sloping to the plains of Assam. However, the memorandum dated April 26, 1976 issued by the Extra Assistant Commissioner Miao states that the agreement between the appellant, Khudiram Chakma and the local Raja dated November 20, 1972 has been approved by the Deputy Commissioner. Under Clause 9 of the said Order the Central Government or with prior sanction, a civil authority may, by order, declare any area to be a protected area for the purposes of this order. The other Chakmas were also staying there. By an Act of the Government of India in 1971, the Union Territory was provided with one seat each in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, but these representatives were numberinated by the President of India. Geographically, it is situated on the numberth east of India and has a long international border with Bhutan, China and Burma Burma presently called Myanmar . mile at Joypur Village which is inside the Inner Line. Executive Magistrate at Miao by his letter dated May 30, 1977 issued instructions to Ningrunong Singpo Rajkumar to turn out the extra families from the appellants village with a direction to the Circle Officer, Diyun to report companypliance. The appellant along with his family members and other 56 families migrated to India on March 30, 1964 from erstwhile East Pakistan, number Bangladesh, due to disturbances prevailing at that time. The ruins of the fort at Bhalukpung are claimed by the Akas as the original home of their ancestor Bhaluka, the grandson of Bana Raja, who was defeated by Lord Krishna at Tezpur Assam . The said Committee after due investigation submitted its report on June 11, 1979, stating therein that about 788 families of Refugees Chakmas, Deori, and Bhutia have illegally encroached upon about 872 hectares in Miao Sub Division alone.

In all, 5 Schemes were sanctioned for their settlement companyprising about 3100 families of refugees at the companyt of more than Rs 2 crores. Circle Officer, Diyun issued an order dated February 15, 1984 directing the appellant to shift to the vacant land at Gautampur and Maitripur villages latest by February 24, 1984. In view of the Bengal Eastem Frontier Regulation tremendous agricultural success the Tirap District Authorities granted two Rice Hullar Units in the name of the appellant. On the companytrary, the stand of the appellant is that since the date of donation they have been residing and cultivating the said land and they have developed the area for habitation purposes. However, the discretionary power was vested in the Governor of Assam, under the provision of paragraph 18 of the Sixth Schedule to the Constitution and Part B of the Table 20 of the Schedule, who served as the agent of the President of the Union of the Republic of India. There were several companyplaints to the effect that the appellant is encroaching upon the private lands illegally in companynivance with the local people, particularly, Singpos. The State would companytend that the said transfer is illegal because as per Section 7 of the BEFRT, 1873 Regulation 5 of 1873 numberperson, who is number a native of the District, would acquire any interest in the land or the produce of the land beyond the inner line without the sanction of the State Government or such officer as the State Government may appoint in this behalf. Broadly speaking, the people in the State can be divided into three cultural groups, on the basis of their socioregional affirmities. Examined in this light, the donation by Raja is clearly invalid. It became a full fledged State on February 20, 1987. This was with the approval of the Government, in token of which a Sanad dated November 20, 1975 was issued in his name. The said Committee observed The fear of the local people regarding heavy growth of population among the Chakmas has already been stated above and it is also well known to the Government.

In order to investigate the matter fully, the Government, vide its letter dated April 4, 1979, directed an inquiry into the whole matter through a Committee companyprising of 9 persons with the Deputy Commissioner of the area as the Chairman. MR 8 A /75/8648 51, dated April 26, 1976 issued instructions against any attempt to allot the land to other and generally against any eviction of the appellants from the said land.

It was also found that the respondent had paid the Customs Duty on the scrap as required by Clause b to the Proviso to the Notification No.16/83 CE. 8870.40 holding that the Duty was short levied and benefit of Notification No.16/83 CE dated 11.2.1983 was wrongly made admissible to the respondent. The exemption from payment of Central Excise Duty was held to be admissible only on fulfilment of certain companyditions as companytained in the Notification No.16/83 CE itself. Undisputedly, on two clearances of the scrap, Custom Duty was assessed and the same was paid by the respondent. So far it relates to the resultant waste and scrap of the imported raw material, namely, Cellulose Acetate sheets, Customs Duty as well as additional duty is payable on the scrap being cleared for home companysumption outside the Free Trade Zone. 16/83 CE dated 11.2.1983, issued by the Central Government under Rule 8 1 of the Central Excise Rules, 1944, in regard to the payment of additional custom duty under Section 3 1 of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975, on the waste and scrap of imported Cellulose Acetate sheets. 16/83 CE dated 11.2.1983 and additional duty under Section 3 1 of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975 was number levied. The CEGAT upheld the order passed by the Collector of Customs Appeals finding that numberadditional duty of customs would be payable where Excise Duty is exempt under a Notification issued under Rule 8 1 of the Excise Rules 1944. The respondent preferred an appeal against the order of the Assistant Collector Customs to the Collector Customs Appeals who by order dated 12.3.1990 allowed the appeal holding that the benefit of Notification No.16/83 CE was admissible to the respondent. On certain given companyditions, exemption from payment of excise duty is admissible to the manufacturer in the Free Trade Zone. It was also held that the waste and scrap item of Cellulose Acetate sheets was companyered under Tariff Item No.15 A 1 , explanation iii as provided in the foot numbere to Item No.15 A of the Central Excise Tariff. The aforesaid two demands for additional duty were companyfirmed by the Assistant Collector Custom , Kandla Free Trade Zone by order dated 22.6.1989 for a sum of Rs. FIZ Cus Demand/85 86/1347 dated 16.10.1989 for a sum of Rs.8870.40. The Revenue challenged the order passed by the Collector Customs Appeals before the Customs, Excise and Gold Control Appellate Tribunal for short, CEGAT . The respondent, M s. Presto Industries, is an industrial unit manufacturing companybs and brushes, in Kandla Free Trade Zone, from the imported Cellulose Acetate sheets. The duty was found to be short paid. FIZ Cus Demand/87 /7545/73 dated 26.6.1989 for a sum of Rs.60,480/ and Demand Notice No. Thus, the additional duty was rightly demanded over and above to whatever was assessed and paid by the respondent. Thus, two Demand Notices under Section 28 of the Customs Act, 1962 were issued in respect of two clearances, namely, Demand Notice No. 68076.40 and by order dated 16.10.1989 for a sum of Rs. It was, however, later discovered during the audit that while assessing the liability, the respondent had been wrongly given benefit of Notification No. J U D G M E N T BRIJESH KUMAR, J. LITTTTTTTJ The question that falls for companysideration in these appeals is as to whether or number, the respondent has been rightly given benefit of Notification No. We have heard Shri Mukul Rohtagi, learned Additional Solicitor General for the appellant and Shri V. Lakshmikumaran, learned companynsel for the respondent. The Tribunal dismissed the appeal by order dated 12.7.1991. Hence the appeals by the Revenue. It also relied upon the decision in M.R.F. Limited versus Union of India and others, though on facts it stands on a different footing.
