Gratuity doesn’t form part of liquidation estate: Calcutta HC

Stesalit Limited Vs Union of India & Ors. (Calcutta High Court)

Calcutta High Court held that gratuity doesn’t form part of liquidation estate. Hence, entire dues of workers would not come under liquidation assets. Thus, writ dismissed and order directing payment of gratuity upheld.

Facts- The present writ petition has been preferred against the Order dated 11.11.2024 passed by the Assistant Labour Commissioner (Central) & Controlling Authority in Case No. 48(24) 2020-E2 (Shri Arun Roy v M/s Stesalit Limited).
