Final Order No. A/1769/WZB/2006-CIV/SMB Appeal No. E/2705/2005, A/1769 of 2006, E/2705 of 2005

Reliance by appellate authority on various decisions of the Tribunal is quite appropriated, as such I find no merits in the revenue's appeal and reject the same.
The main legal point established in the judgment is the binding effect of the settlement between the parties, the waiver of the right to seek re-employment by the workmen, and the entitlement of the ....
