IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.7233 OF 2008 Institute for Design of Electrical Measuring Instruments ..Petitioner. Vs. J. L. Sonawale ..Respondent. .... Mr. V.P. Vaidya for the Petitioner. Mr. P.M. Mokashi for the Respondent. .... CORAM: DR. D.Y. CHANDRACHUD, J. 17th November, 2008. P.C. : The Industrial Tribunal has while declining its approval under Section 33(2)(b) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 observed that the management had failed to pay one month's wages. The payment of one month's wages is a mandatory requirement of Section 33(2)(b). It is not disputed before this Court as well that what was offered was not one month's wages. Since there a breach of compliance with a mandatory provision, the order of the Industrial Tribunal declining to grant approval does not warrant interference. The Petition is accordingly dismissed. *****
