Case Overview
- Civil Appeal No.10072/2016 filed by the Executive Director (Personnel) of Life Insurance Corporation of India, Chennai (appellant) against P. Jayaprakash and others (respondents).
- The matter was listed and mentioned on 11 August 2026 before a two‑judge bench comprising Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice Sheel Nagu.
- The dispute concerns the entitlement of the first respondent to post‑service benefits, with the appellant alleging that the respondent’s claim is not genuine.
Final Outcome
- The Court modified paragraph 6(f) of its earlier order dated 4 August 2026. The new wording states: “On the contrary, if the claim of the respondent is found to be not genuine and unacceptable, and the Committee's finding is upheld, the first respondent shall not be entitled to any further benefit arising out of his service after 28th August, 2014.”
- The amendment is to be read in continuation of the 4 August 2026 order, thereby confirming that the first respondent loses any service‑related benefits after the specified date if his claim is rejected.
