A reinstatement award by itself does not create an automatic entitlement to back wages, because back wages depend on the facts and circumstances and must be determined in appropriate adjudication proceedings. The Labour Court could not treat back wages as an implied consequence of reinstatement, so the claim under Section 33-C(2) was not maintainable on the basis of the reinstatement award alone. en-us Wed, 01 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 17 Aug 2020 15:32:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=289709 Back wages cannot be claimed under Section 33-C(2) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 unless there is a pre-existing right or an award expressly grants that monetary relief.
