Balakrishnan Nair, J.\n<\/p>\n
            The second respondent in the Writ Petition is the appellant. The<\/p>\n
first respondent herein was the writ petitioner. The brief facts of the case<\/p>\n
are the following. The first respondent was an employee of the Cochin Port<\/p>\n
Trust which is a major port trust constituted under the Major Port Trust Act.<\/p>\n
The Port Trust invoking its power to frame regulations has adopted the<\/p>\n
C.C.S. (Pension ) Rules.\n<\/p>\n
            2. The first respondent herein retired from service on 30.6.1997.<\/p>\n
At the relevant time, he was governed by the provisions in the C.C.S.<\/p>\n
(Pension) Rules concerning payment of gratuity and also by the provisions of<\/p>\n
Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 as he was an employee as defined under<\/p>\n
section 2(e) of the said Act. So, whichever scheme for payment of gratuity<\/p>\n
was more beneficial to him, he was able to opt it.        But, the maximum<\/p>\n
amount of gratuity payable under the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 was<\/p>\n
only Rs.1,00,000\/= up to 24.9.1997. With effect from the said date, it was<\/p>\n
enhanced to 3.5 lakhs. But, the maximum gratuity payable under the C.C.S.<\/p>\n
(Pension) Rules and the scheme thereunder applicable to the first<\/p>\n
respondent was Rs.3.5 lakhs.     This enhanced rate was enforced for the<\/p>\n
employees of the Port Trust with effect from 1.1.1997.         Since the first<\/p>\n
W.A.No.1691\/2009                    2<\/span><\/p>\n
respondent retired from service on 30.6.1997, he was entitled to get<\/p>\n
gratuity as per the C.C.S. (Pension) Rules read with the relevant<\/p>\n
scheme which is produced as Ext.P1, as modified by Ext.P3.<\/p>\n
            3. As per the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, the amount of<\/p>\n
gratuity is computed at the rate of 15 days’ wages for every completed<\/p>\n
year of service, provided the employee concerned is having a<\/p>\n
minimum service of five years. One month’s salary is taken as 26<\/p>\n
days’ wages. Therefore, when wages for 15 days is computed, it will<\/p>\n
be slightly above half month’s wages. But, under the C.C.S. (Pension)<\/p>\n
Rules, the computation is made with reference to < of the monthly<\/p>\n
emoluments for every completed six months' service, provided the<\/p>\n
employee has completed total five years' service.         Therefore, the<\/p>\n
concept of 15 days' wages has no place while computing the benefits<\/p>\n
under the C.C.S. (Pension) Rules. The relevant rule which deals with<\/p>\n
payment of gratuity is Rule 50. Sub-rule 5 thereof specifies that the<\/p>\n
emoluments for the purpose of Rule 50 shall be reckoned in<\/p>\n
accordance with Rule 33.\n<\/p>\n
            4. The first respondent claimed that the ceiling for payment<\/p>\n
of gratuity should be in accordance with Exts.P1 and P3 read with<\/p>\n
C.C.S. (Pension) Rules.     But, its computation should be made as<\/p>\n
provided under the Payment of Gratuity Act,1972. Claiming the said<\/p>\n
relief, the Writ Petition was filed. The appellant resisted the claim.<\/p>\n
But, the learned Single Judge after hearing both sides allowed the Writ<\/p>\n
W.A.No.1691\/2009                  3<\/span><\/p>\n
Petition. Hence this Writ Appeal.\n<\/p>\n
            5. We heard the learned counsel on both sides.         The<\/p>\n
learned counsel for the appellant submitted that the first respondent<\/p>\n
cannot claim best of both the worlds. If he wants computation as per<\/p>\n
the Payment of Gratuity Act, he can claim only maximum amount of<\/p>\n
Rs.1,00,00\/-. But, if he wants the ceiling to go up to Rs.3.5 lakhs, as<\/p>\n
provided in Ext.P1 as modified by Ext.P3, he has to go by the<\/p>\n
computation provided in Rule 50 read with Rule 33 of the C.C.S.<\/p>\n
(Pension) Rules. The learned counsel for the first respondent on the<\/p>\n
other hand submitted that the C.C.S. (Pension) Rules have no<\/p>\n
application to him, even in the adopted form by the Port Trust. He is<\/p>\n
governed only by Ext.P1 as modified by Ext.P3. The same provides<\/p>\n
only the maximum amount of DCRG which could be paid. The said<\/p>\n
amount should be computed as provided under the Payment of<\/p>\n
Gratuity Act.\n<\/p>\n
            6. The aforementioned contention of the first respondent<\/p>\n
cannot be accepted in view of Ext.P4 judgment. The case of the first<\/p>\n
respondent before this Court, when the Original Petition leading to<\/p>\n
Ext.P4 judgment was heard, was that he is covered by the C.C.S.<\/p>\n
(Pension) Rules and he should be granted benefits as per the said<\/p>\n
rules.\n<\/p>\n
            7. The grievance raised in that Original Petition was<\/p>\n
concerning the quantum of DCRG provided under the C.C.S. (Pension)<\/p>\n
W.A.No.1691\/2009                  4<\/span><\/p>\n
Rules. During the pendency of the Original Petition, Exts.P1 and P3<\/p>\n
were issued and therefore, the Original Petition was disposed of<\/p>\n
noticing that the grievance of the first respondent\/Petitioner was<\/p>\n
redressed by the issuance of Exts.P1 and P3.        The learned Single<\/p>\n
Judge, as per Ext.P4, ordered to release the DCRG to the first<\/p>\n
respondent as per Ext.P3. In view of the above position, the present<\/p>\n
contention that he is not covered by the computation of DCRG as per<\/p>\n
the C.C.S. (Pension) Rules cannot be accepted. He cannot have best<\/p>\n
of the two worlds. He cannot claim the quantum as per the C.C.S.<\/p>\n
(Pension) Rules and simultaneously claim computation as per the<\/p>\n
Payment of Gratuity Act. Therefore, the Writ Petition was liable to be<\/p>\n
dismissed.\n<\/p>\n
           In the result, the Writ Appeal is allowed. The judgment<\/p>\n
under appeal is reversed and the Writ Petition is dismissed.<\/p>\n
