Judgment
GAJENDRAGADKAR, C.J.I. :
This appeal by special leave raises a short question about the validity of the order passed by the Industrial Tribunal, Ernakulam, directing the appellant, the Tata Oil Mills Co. Ltd., to reinstate its workman K. K. Raghavan whom it had dismissed with effect from the 14th of November 1955. The appellant is a public limited concern engaged in the industry of soaps and toilet articles. It owns three factories in addition to 12 sales offices.One of these factories is located at Tatapuram, Ernakulam, in the State of Kerala. Mr. Raghavan was working with the appellant at its factory at Tatapuram. It was reported to the appellant that on the 12th November, 1955. Mr. Raghavan and another employee of the appellant, Mr. Mathews by name, waylaid Mr. C. A. Augustine, the Chargeman of the Soap Plant of the company s factory at Tatapuram while he was returning home after his duty in the second shift and assaulted him. That is why charge-sheets were issued against both Messrs. Raghavan and Mathews on the 14th November, 1955. Pursuant to the service of the charge-sheets, two officers were appointed by the appellant to hold an enquiry; but the respondent Union represented to the appellant that justice would not be done to Raghavan and Mathews unless somebody outside Tatapuram was invited to hold the enquiry. Thereupon, the General Manager of the appellant appointed Mr. Y. D. Joshi, who is a Law Officer of the appellant it the Head Office, to hold the enquiry. Mr. Joshi held the enquiry from the 27th to 30th December, 1955, and subsequently, he made his report to the General manager of the appellant on the 7th January, l956. At that time, an industrial dispute was pending between the appellant and its employees, and so, the appellant applied to the Industrial Tribunal for approval of the dismissal of Messrs. Raghavan and Mathews. The Tribunal approved of the dismissal of Raghavan, but did not accord its approval of the dismissal of Mathews. Acting in pursuance of the approval accorded by the Tribunal, the appellant dismissed Raghavan with effect from 14th November, 1955. Not satisfied with the order of dismissal, the respondent raised an industrial dispute in regard to the propriety and validity of the said dismissal of Raghavan and that has become the subject-matter of the present reference which was ordered on the 3rd of December, 1958. It is on this reference that the Industrial Tribunal has held that the appellant was not justified in dismissing Raghavan, and so, has ordered his reinstatement. This is the order which has given rise to the present appeal by special leave.
2. The first point which calls for our decision in this appeal is whether the Tribunal was right in holding that the facts proved against Raghavan did not attract the provisions of standing Order 22 (vii) of the Certified standing Orders of the appellant. The said standing order provides that without prejudice to the general meaning of the term "misconduct", it shall be deemed to mean and including, inter alia, drunkenness, fighting, riotous or disorderly or indecent behaviour within or without the factory. It is common ground that the alleged assault took place outside the factory, and, in fact, at a considerable distance from it. The Tribunal has held that the assault in question can be treated as a purely private matter between .Raghavan and Augustine with which the appellant was not concerned and as a result of which standing Order 22 (viii) cannot be invoked against Raghavan. Mr. Menon who has appeared for the respondent before us, has contended that in construing standing orders of this character, we must take care, to see that disputes of a purely private or individual type are not brought within their scope. He argues that on many occasions, individual employees may have to deal with private disputes, and sometimes, as a result of these private disputes, assault may be committed. Such an assault may attract the relevant provisions of

Referred to : Delhi Cloth and General Mills Ltd. v. Kaushal Bhau
No cases in the provided list are explicitly identified as overruled, reversed, or otherwise treated as bad law. The sources consistently treat the principal cases—particularly Tata Oil Mills Co. Ltd. v. Its Workmen (AIR 1965 SC 155) and Delhi Cloth and General Mills Ltd. v. Kushal Bhan (AIR 1960 SC 806)—as binding precedents that have been followed, distinguished, or relied upon by subsequent courts. There is no textual evidence in the list of any case being categorized as bad law. Therefore, this section is empty based on the available material.
Following is a categorization of the cases based on their judicial treatment asindicated in the source material, grouping them by the primary treatment pattern observed.
The overwhelming majority of citations in the source material treat the leading cases as precedents that have been followed, approved, or relied upon by later courts.

A significant treatment pattern observed throughout the source material is the explicit judicial statement that the legal principle established in a case is "not an invariable rule." This represents a form of distinguishing—acknowledging the precedent while limiting its scope or application. Key examples include: "In Tata Oil Mills Company Limited v. ... The ground indicated in D.C.M. and Tata Oil Mills is not also an invariable rule." State Of Rajasthan VS B. K. Meenaand - 1996 7 Supreme 432 "A.I.R. 1960 S.C. 806) and Tata Oil Mills (A.I.R. 1965 S.C. 155) is not also an invariable rule."

These cases appear in the source material in contexts where it is unclear whether they were followed, distinguished, or otherwise treated. The text references them as having been considered, but the explicit judicial treatment is ambiguous.
