Justice A P Sahi and Justice Subramonium Prasad said dismissing petitions from N S Sivakumar and five others. Petitioners are backward class candidates. They claimed relaxation in age on a par with SC/ST candidates, which stands at 48 years, on the ground that they also belong to reserved category. Hence, denial of age relaxation will amount to discrimination by not extending a benefit which otherwise ought to have been given. The judges said they do not find any of the judgments relied on by petitioners counsel to come to their aid for extending the benefit

Therefore, we are of the view that the order of the learned Single Judge confirming the order of the Appellate Authority, who has confirmed the order of the Controlling Authority is set aside and the writ appeals are allowed. Insofar as writ petitions are concerned, the common order of the Appellate Authority dated 31.03.2021 confirming the order of the Controlling Authority is set aside and the writ petitions are allowed. No costs. It is brought to the notice of this Court that pursuant to the orders of the Controlling Authority concerned in the writ appeals and writ petitions, the difference of gratuity amounts have been deposited before the respective authorities as it is a condition precedent before preferring appeals before the Appellate Authority concerned in the writ appeals and writ petitions. Some of the employees concerned in the writ appeals have already withdrawn their respective amounts and the employees concerned in the writ petitions are yet to withdraw. We make it very clear that the employees who had already withdrawn the amounts need not return the money and that the appellant/writ petitioner Management cannot demand for refund of the said amounts. The amounts, which are lying in deposit together with accrued interest shall be returned to the appellant/writ petitioner Management within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Connected miscellaneous petitions are closed. (S.V.N.J.) (K.R.S.J.) nv 21.06.2023 To The Regional Labour Commissioner (Central) cum Appellate Authority under the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, O/o.
