CWP No.5469 of 2001                                               [1]\n\nTHE     HIGH      COURT OF PUNJAB                 AND      HARYANA           AT\n                      CHANDIGARH.\n\n\n\n                                C. W. P. No.5469 of 2001\n\n                                Date of Decision: 22 - 10 - 2008\n\n\n\nSmt.Sukhdev Kaur Dhinsa                                    ....Petitioner\n\n                                v.\n\nThe Managing Committee, Nankana Sahib                      ....Respondents\nPublic School and another\n\n\nCORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA\n\n                                ***\n<\/pre>\n
Present:    Mr.Pawan Kumar, Sr.Advocate with\n            Mr.Swapan Shorey, Advocate\n            for the petitioner.\n\n            Mr.K.S.Sidhu, Sr.Advocate with\n            Mr.G.S.Sidhu, Advocate\n            for the respondents.\n\n                                ***\n\nKANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA (ORAL)\n\n<\/pre>\n
            Petitioner was appointed as a Principal by the respondent-Trust<\/p>\n
on 3.8.1989.    She joined her duties on 21.8.1989.        As per petitioner’s<\/p>\n
averment, she attained age of superannuation on 16.9.1998. Vide Annexure<\/p>\n
P-4, she was allowed to continue in service till attaining the age of 60 years,<\/p>\n
meaning thereby her services were extended for two years. By filing the<\/p>\n
present petition, she has claimed gratuity and benefit of earned leave<\/p>\n
encashment which is due to her on the eve of retirement.<\/p>\n
            A stand has been taken by the respondents that since the<\/p>\n
petitioner could not be permitted to continue beyond the age of 58 years and
\n CWP No.5469 of 2001                                               [2]<\/p>\n
her continuation upto age of 60 years was without any justification,<\/p>\n
therefore, salary for 1 year 7 months paid to her is to be recovered.<\/p>\n
             This stand of the respondents cannot be accepted, once the<\/p>\n
petitioner has discharged her duties, that also as a result of issuance of<\/p>\n
extension granted to her by the Additional Secretary of the Trust vide<\/p>\n
Annexure P-4, petitioner had to superannuate on attaining the age of 60<\/p>\n
years.\n<\/p>\n
             On 17.10.2008, this Court after hearing the parties had ordered<\/p>\n
that since retiral benefits are being withheld on a wrong assumption which<\/p>\n
cannot be sustained in the eyes of law, this Court intend to impose heavy<\/p>\n
costs and pass severe strictures and also called a responsible officer of the<\/p>\n
Trust. In compliance of that order dated 17.10.2008, Director of the Trust is<\/p>\n
present in Court. He has brought the record. As per record, they have<\/p>\n
calculated and computed the gratuity for 10 years and 8 months and 11 days<\/p>\n
and a sum of Rs.85,390\/- is due to the petitioner as gratuity.<\/p>\n
             Mr.Pawan Kumar appearing for the petitioner has read Section<\/p>\n
4 of the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972.          As per Section 4(2) every<\/p>\n
employee is entitled for gratuity at the rate of 15 days wages for every<\/p>\n
completed year of service and where he has completed service in excess of<\/p>\n
six months, the same is to be taken as one year for computation. In the<\/p>\n
present case, admittedly petitioner has completed 10 years 8 months and 11<\/p>\n
days of service, therefore, she is entitled to gratuity for 11 years. It is<\/p>\n
admitted by the parties that petitioner is entitled to 9% statutory interest on<\/p>\n
the amount of gratuity. As per own calculations of the respondents, salary<\/p>\n
of the petitioner (Basic pay plus dearness allowance) for each month was<\/p>\n
Rs.17,078\/-. Therefore, on this basis, the petitioner is to be paid gratuity for
\n CWP No.5469 of 2001                                            [3]<\/p>\n
11 years along with interest at the rate of 9%. Petitioner completed 60 years<\/p>\n
of age on 30.4.2000. Therefore, she will be also entitled to 9% interest on<\/p>\n
the delayed payment from the date of retirement. It is stated by counsel for<\/p>\n
the respondents that Rs.64,000\/- was paid to the petitioner during the<\/p>\n
pendency of this writ petition. The amount of Rs.64,000\/- be deducted from<\/p>\n
total amount of gratuity, rest of the amount of gratuity be paid to the<\/p>\n
petitioner as observed above.\n<\/p>\n
            As per Rule 9 of the Service & Conduct Rules for the<\/p>\n
employees of the respondent-Trust, petitioner is to be treated as non<\/p>\n
vacation employee. Rule 9 with regard to Vacation Pay reads as under:-<\/p>\n
                    “The teachers shall be treated as vacation employees.<\/p>\n
            The Principal, Librarian, clerks, accountant, steno, attendants,<\/p>\n
            peons shall be treated as non-vacation employees.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Therefore, the petitioner is also entitled to the benefit of earned leave<\/p>\n
encashment at the time of retirement in accordance with rules. The same<\/p>\n
shall be calculated and paid to the petitioner within three months from today<\/p>\n
along with balance amount of gratuity.\n<\/p>\n
            Petition stands disposed off.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
