Case Synopsis & Summary

This is a consolidated batch of writ petitions filed by retired employees of the Kerala Water Authority challenging the denial or delay in payment of retirement benefits, including DCRG (Dearness and Retirement Gratuity) and Commuted Value of Pension, following pay revision and related pensionary matters for those who retired between 2014 and 2019. The Water Authority reports that arrears would require large funds and cites financial constraints; Government orders GO(P) Nos. 26/16/WRD (27-09-2016) and 36/2017/FIN (14-03-2017) in the context of pay revision and sanctioning of pension benefits. The court, however, holds that pension and pensionary benefits are the property of the pensioner and cannot be unlawfully deprived, and that there is a statutory duty to pay retiral benefits promptly on retirement. It directs, on a time-bound basis, payment of DCRG to those who retired from April 2017 onward within six months of receipt of the judgment and payment of Commuted Value of Pension within six months; and payment of DCRG and CVP differences for those who retired up to March 2017 within seven months, all strictly by seniority by date of retirement. The judgment relies on established jurisprudence, citing Deokinandan Prasad v. State of Bihar and State of Kerala v. M. Padmanabhan Nair.

Provisions of Law Cited

Part III of the Kerala Service Rules (KSR)G.O.(P) No.26/16/WRD (27-09-2016)G.O.(P) No.36/2017/FIN (14-03-2017)

Legal Doctrines & Maxims

Pension and pensionary benefits are the property of the pensioner and cannot be deprived unlawfully
Immediate payment of retiral benefits on retirement is a statutory duty of the employer
Financial crises cannot justify indefinite withholding of statutory payments

Submissions & Arguments

Contentions of Appellants / Petitioners

The petitioners submit that retiral benefits, including DCRG and CVP, are statutory rights and must be paid at or immediately after retirement. Delays and denial cause substantial hardship, and mere financial constraints cannot justify indefinite postponement of these payments. The petitions rely on statutory duties under Part III of the Kerala Service Rules and related Government Orders to press for timely payment.

Contentions of Respondents

The respondents contend financial constraints and administrative delays; they assert that funds were allocated and that pay revisions were implemented; consequently, withholding or delaying pensionary payments was justified or excused on grounds of fiscal constraint, subject to administrative and legal processes.

CASES** ## **J U D G M E N T** All these writ petitions are filed by the employees retired from the service of the Kerala Water Authority on various dates between 2014 and 2019. While those who retired prior to 2017 are aggrieved by the denial of arrears of terminal benefits including DCRG and Commuted Value of Pension consequent to pay revision implemented with retrospective effect, those who retired from 2017 onwards are aggrieved by the denial of their entire terminal benefits. 2. The Water Authority has filed a statement, according to which, the payment of difference in DCRG is due to 668 persons who retired from service between July 2014 and March 2017. Out of this 421 persons who retired upto December 2015 were paid the difference in DCRG in September/October 2019. That means there would be 447 persons retired between January 2016 and March 2017 are yet to be paid the difference in DCRG. According to them a sum of Rs.6,45,20,311/- is required to make the payment of the difference in DCRG ## **WP(C).NO.18601 OF 2019(A) & CONN. CASES** 42 to those 447 persons who retired between January 2016 and March 2017. 3. It is further stated that DCRG has been authorised for 350 persons who retired upto 15.09.2018 (from April 2017) for which a sum of Rs.3,30,99,307 is required. 4. In addition of this the commutation benefits are to be paid to 718 persons who retired from 01.04.2017 onwards for which 103,64,86,413/- is required. Though the water authority has given the figures saying that there are 7458 pensioners who are waiting for their pensionary benefits, nothing is stated as to when the payment can be made except for the fact that the Water Authority is facing huge financial crisis. 5. The Water Authority expresses their helplessness saying that they have approached the Government for funds. But the learned Government Pleader submits that it is for the Water Authority to make payment and there were strict instructions to ## **WP(C).NO.18601 OF 2019(A) & CONN. CASES** 43 that effect while according sanction for pay revision. It is pointed out that even then funds were allotted to Water Authority for payment of retiral benefits. It is also stated that Government is also facing financial crunch. 6. But petitioners are persons who toiled in the heyday of their life for the employer with the expectation that the statutory terminal benefits which are legally due to them would be paid in lump sum in accordance with rules immediately on their retirement, which will enable them to utilize their multiple needs/for materialization of their dreams. Now there are several pensioners who are yet to get any of the terminal benefits. Several others are waiting for the arrears towards difference in DCRG as well as Commuted Value of Pension. When statutory rules under Part III of KSR provides for payment of the retiral benefits immediately on their retirement it is the statutory duty of the employer Water Authority to see that the retiral benefits are paid to the pensioners at the ## **WP(C).NO.18601 OF 2019(A) & CONN. CASES** 44 ## earliest point of time. 7. Whenever a regular appointment is made the employer is expected to be aware of its liability that would arise as and when he attains the age of superannuation. Respondents should have been conscious of the fact that pension and pensionary benefits are not bounties to be paid at their sweet will and pleasure but the property of the pensioner which cannot be deprived of unlawfully, in the light of the settled law (see **Deokinandan Prasad v. State of Bihar** [(1971) 2 SCC 330], **State of Kerala v. M. Padmanabhan Nair** [(1985 ) 1 SCC 429], _etc_ _**).**_ The financial crisis faced by the respondents cannot be a valid reason to deny or defer the statutory payments indefinitely. 8. It is seen that petitioners in W.P. (C).Nos.5363 of 2019 and 23034 of 2019 who retired from service on 31.07.2018 and 31.05.2018 respectively are yet to get any terminal benefits like DCRG or Commuted Value of Pension. Further delay in payment to these pensioners will result in very serious hardship ## **WP(C).NO.18601 OF 2019(A) & CONN. CASES** 45 to them. Therefore, there shall be a direction to the respondents to see that the payment of DCRG is made to those who retired from service from April 2017 onwards strictly on the basis of seniority with reference to date of retirement within a period of 'six months' from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment. Their commuted value of pension shall be paid within another six months on same terms. The difference in DCRG and CVP due to those who retired from service shall also be paid to all these who retired upto March 2017 within a period of 'seven months' from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment, strictly based on seniority reckoning the date of retirement.
