P-5<\/p>\n<p>to P-18, which shows that the number of employees never exceeded 10 during the<\/p>\n<p>relevant period. Mohan Gupta, Proprietor of the Firm, who appeared as PW1 has<\/p>\n<p>clearly stated that the number of employees never exceeded 8 in the factory. The<\/p>\n<p>trial Court has erred by relying upon the Survey Reports of the respondent-<\/p>\n<p>Corporation, which cannot be relied upon, as it were prepared in the absence of<\/p>\n<p>the appellant or any responsible person of the factory. These Survey Reports were<\/p>\n<p>not signed by any person on behalf of the appellant-firm. Bal Kishan, who is<\/p>\n<p>alleged to have signed the Survey Reports was not the employee of the factory.<\/p>\n<p>His name (Bal Kishan) has been wrongly mentioned. PW1 has stated, in his<\/p>\n<p>evidence, that no over time register has been maintained in the factory by the<\/p>\n<p>appellant firm. RW 2 has wrongly stated about the maintenance of overtime<\/p>\n<p>register. The report given by RW2 dated 11.06.1975 is absolutely wrong. The<\/p>\n<p>survey report given by RW1 cannot be relied upon as the Inspector did not<\/p>\n<p>mention the names of the workers working in the factory of the appellant and no<\/p>\n<p>signatures were obtained from any representative of the employer on the survey<\/p>\n<p>report. This has been admitted by RW1. RW 2 has also admitted in the cross<\/p>\n<p>examination that he did not count the workers and the letter pad was given by a<\/p>\n<p>fictitious person Bal Kishan.\n<\/p>\n<p>            In response, learned counsel for the respondents invited the court&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>attention to the Survey Reports Ex. R1 and R3. Both the Survey Reports are duly<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> FAO No. 822 of 1986                                                            3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>stamped as a token of proof that these were prepared in the presence of the<\/p>\n<p>employees of the factory. These Survey Reports have been made on the letter pad<\/p>\n<p>of the appellant firm. The inspection of the premisses carried out by the Inspector<\/p>\n<p>is admitted in the statement of Shri Mohan Lal Gupta, RW1. There is no mala fide<\/p>\n<p>alleged against the officials of the Corporation, submitting the Survey Reports.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the arguments raised by learned counsel for the appellant that the name of<\/p>\n<p>the employee, who signed the Survey Reports, is not mentioned, is not relevant.<\/p>\n<p>Fact remains that they are duly stamped and are also prepared on the writing pad<\/p>\n<p>of the Firm. Therefore, the authenticity of the Survey Reports cannot be doubted<\/p>\n<p>only on the ground that neither the owner of the firm, nor his representative was<\/p>\n<p>present in the factory at the time of inspection.\n<\/p>\n<p>             Learned counsel for the appellant, thereafter, relied on the<\/p>\n<p>examination-in-chief and cross examination of Shri Om Parkash Sharma, RW1<\/p>\n<p>and Shri D R Dhall, RW2, who were the witnesses of the respondent-Corporation,<\/p>\n<p>to show that the same are contradictory and that there were discrepancies in their<\/p>\n<p>statements. The discrepancies so pointed out by the learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>appellant are minor in nature as the statements having been recorded after a lapse<\/p>\n<p>of 10 years, can always vary. The fact remains that the documentary evidence in<\/p>\n<p>the form of Survey Report lie. The clinching documentary evidence in the face of<\/p>\n<p>the oral evidence will have to be relied upon. Learned counsel for the appellant<\/p>\n<p>further argued that in order to prove that the 1948 Act was applicable, it was<\/p>\n<p>necessary to prove that the machines were being run by power. The plea that no<\/p>\n<p>electric power was being used in the factory, was taken up by the appellants.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, it was for the appellant to prove that no electric power was being used, but<\/p>\n<p>the appellant did not lead any evidence to the effect that the machines were not<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> FAO No. 822 of 1986                                                              4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>being run on power.\n<\/p>\n<p>            Learned counsel for the appellant while raising the second argument<\/p>\n<p>submitted that the Employees&#8217; Insurance Court has illegally held that the petition<\/p>\n<p>under Section 75 of the 1948 Act is time barred, inasmuch as, the order, under<\/p>\n<p>challenge, vide which the Regional Director had finally determined the<\/p>\n<p>contributions, to be paid by the appellant firm, is dated 21.03.1983. It was further<\/p>\n<p>submitted that since the order dated 21.03.1983 was challenged under Section 75<\/p>\n<p>of the 1948 Act on 01.09.1983 and then the same is clearly within time as<\/p>\n<p>prescribed under section 77 of the 1948 Act. It was further stated that no other<\/p>\n<p>order was received before the aforesaid order dated 21.03.1983.<\/p>\n<p>            Learned counsel for the respondent-Corporation, however, invited the<\/p>\n<p>Courts&#8217; attention to the prayer clause made in the plaint i.e. para 15, which runs as<\/p>\n<p>follow:-\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>             &#8220;15. It is, therefore, prayed that the recovery demanded by<\/p>\n<p>             the respondent towards E.S.I.

As such,<\/p>\n<p>cause of action had arisen from the date of issuance of the first recovery order i.e.<\/p>\n<p>On 19.04.1976. Therefore, petition under Section 75 of the 1948 Act is clearly<\/p>\n<p>time barred, as Section 77(1)(a) of the 1948 Act, allows a period of three years<\/p>\n<p>from the date of cause of action, whereas the petition under Section 75 of the 1948<\/p>\n<p>Act was moved as late as on 01.09.1983, i.e. almost after seven years.<\/p>\n<p>              Learned counsel for the appellant, however, denied the receiving of<\/p>\n<p>the aforesaid orders and referred to para 9 of the plaint, wherein, the appellant had<\/p>\n<p>taken a stand that they had received the demand notice for the first time on<\/p>\n<p>14.10.1980.\n<\/p>\n<p>              After having heard the learned counsel for the parties and having<\/p>\n<p>perused the entire record, it is difficult to accept that the appellant heard about the<\/p>\n<p>demand notice for the first time only on 14.10.1980, inasmuch as, all the orders<\/p>\n<p>dated 19.04.1976, 06.08.1976, 31.08.1977, 07.04.1977 and 30.06.1983 have been<\/p>\n<p>challenged by the appellant in the plaint. All these orders must have been received<\/p>\n<p>by the appellants on the respective dates, as its details have been mentioned in the<\/p>\n<p>prayer clause of the plaint. A specific reply has also been given by respondent in<\/p>\n<p>para 9 of their written statement, which reads as follow:-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>              &#8220;9.   That contents of para 9 of the petition are admitted to the<\/p>\n<p>              extent that the petitioner was informed that it was covered under<\/p>\n<p>              the ESI Act with effect from March, 1975, but rest of the<\/p>\n<p>              contents of this para of the petition are wrong and false and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> FAO No. 822 of 1986                                                             6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>            hence denied. Instead, it is submitted that the petitioner was<\/p>\n<p>            informed regarding his coverage under ESIC in the year 1975.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>            A plea that the appellant had received demand notice, for the first<\/p>\n<p>time, only on 14.10.1980, has not been proved by leading any cogent evidence in<\/p>\n<p>this regard. Even the official witnesses have not been cross examined to that<\/p>\n<p>effect. Nor, the orders dated 19.04.1976, 06.08.1976, 31.08.1977, 07.04.1977,<\/p>\n<p>which were duly exhibited, had been objected to. It is apparent that these orders<\/p>\n<p>of the year 1976 and 1977 were in the knowledge of the appellant. As such, the<\/p>\n<p>petition under section 75 of the 1948 Act, is hopelessly time barred.<\/p>\n<p>            In view of the position delineated above, I find no merit in this appeal<\/p>\n<p>and the same is accordingly, dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                                                 (Nirmaljit Kaur)<br \/>\n                                                                     Judge<br \/>\nAugust 13, 2009<br \/>\nmohan<br \/>\n                   Whether to be referred to the Reporter: Yes or No\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Punjab-Haryana High Court M\/S M G Electricals.
