This appeal	 on certificate	 by the Bombay Gas Co. Ltd.	 is directed against the judgment and order dated 931 February 6	 1967 of the Bombay High Court in Special Civil Application No. 1987 of 1965. The High Court set aside the decision of the Court of Small Causes	 Bombay	 in Payment of Wages Appeals Nos. 162 and 163 of 1962 and remanded the proceedings to the Additional Authority for calculating and awarding over time wages that may be due to the respondents Nos. 1 to 80 herein. The High Court further reversed the decision of the Court of Small Causes	 Bombay	 in Payment of Wages Appeal No. 61 of 1963 and restored the orders passed by the Third Additional Authority in favour of the respondents Nos. 8 1 to 1 1 8 herein	 regarding their right to get wages for weekly off days. C.M.P. No. 1300 of 1972 is an application filed by the	 respondents in the civil appeal for revoking the certificate for leave to appeal to this Court granted by the High Court to the appellant herein. We will briefly state the circumstances under which the appeal has come to this Court on certificate: The respondents Nos. 1 to 14 who were employed under the appellant as Syphon Pumpers filed on March 3	 1958 before the Additional Authority 14 applications under section 15 of the Payment of Wages Act (hereinafter to be referred as the Act) claiming over time wages for the period February 1957 to January	 1958. On the same date the respondents Nos. 15 to 80	 who were employed under the appellant as Mains workers filed before the same Authority 66 applications claiming over time wages for the same period. The claim was substantially based under the provisions of the Bombay Shops	 and Establishments Act	 1948 (hereinafter to be referred as the Establishments Act). The appellant raised two	 grounds of defence: (a) The claims were barred by the Award	 Part II of the Industrial Tribunal	 Bombay dated March 30	 1950 in Reference (IT) No. 54 of 1949; and (b). The applicants were not workmen covered by the Establishments Act. On October 13	 1962	 the Additional Authority held that the Award	 referred to	 by the Company was no bar to the said employees claiming over time wages. But the said Authority accepted the contention of the Company that the applicants are not covered by the Establishments Act	 which gives them the benefit of weekly off days with wages under section 18(3). In this view the applications filed by the respondents Nos. 1 to 80 herein were dismissed. The said applicants filed before the Court of Small Causes. Bombay	 which was the Appellate Authority	 Payment of Wages Appeals Nos. 162 and 163 of 1962 challenging the decision dated October 13	 1962 of the Additional Authority	 .dismissing their applications. During the years 1962 63	 the respondents Nos. 81 to 118 herein	 in the Civil Appeal filed 38 applications before the Third Additional Authority under section 15 of the Act claiming wages for weekly off days. The said respondents were working in Mains	 932 Heating. Appliances. and Fitting Departments of the appellant. Here again	 the basis of the claim was under the provisions of the Establishments Act. The appellant raised the same two defences as in respect of the claim for overtime wages. The Third Additional Authority	 by it	$ judgment dated April 26	 1963	 held that the Award	 Part II of the Industrial Tribunal	 Bombay	 dated March 30	 1950 in Reference (IT) No	 54 of 1949 is no bar to entertain the applications of the said employees. The said authority further held that the district office in which the said applicants were employed is a "Commercial Establishment" under the Establishments Act and as such they were entitled to wages for weekly off days under section 18(3) of the said Act. Accordingly	 the	 said authority directed the appellant to pay the amounts mentioned in the judgment to respondents Nos. 81 to II 8 and also to pay certain amount by way of corn sensation. The appellant filed Payment 	of Wages Appeal No. 61 of 1963 before the Court of Small Causes	 Bombay which was the Appellate authority	 challenging the decision of the Third Additional Authority dated April 26	 1963 regarding payment of wages for 'weekly off days. 81 to 118 were heard together and .disposed of by a common judgment dated February 11	 1965 by the Appellate Authority	 the Court of S mall Causes	 Bombay. It was held that the claims of all the workmen for over time wages and wages for weekly off days were barred by the Award	 Part II dated March 30	 1950 of the Industrial Tribunal	 Bombay	 in Re ference (IT) No. 54 of 1949 and that the. said award was still in force and binding on the parties. Accordingly	 the Payment of Wages Appeals Nos. 162 and 163 of 1962 were dismissed and Payment of Wages Appeal No. 61 of 1963 was allowed. It must however be stated that though the Appellate Authority	 .the under the Establishments Act.	 The Appellate Authority held that the district office	 of the Company though situated	within the		 compound of the factory is a "Commercial Establishment" under the Establishments Act. Accordingly	 the Court of Small Causes agreed 'With the finding of the Third 933 Additional Authority	 that the workman were governed by the provisions of the Establishments Act and as such are entitled to the benefit conferred on them by that Act. However	 in view of the fact that the Claims of all the workmen were held to be barred in view of the award in Reference (IT) No. 54 of 1949	 the workmen 's appeals were dismissed and the appeal 	 filed by the company was allowed. As stated earlier	 the decision of the court of small causes resulted in the dismissal of all the applications filed by the workmen before both the Additional Authority and the Third Additional Authority. All the 118 workmen filed before the Bombay High Court	 Special Civil Application. No. 1987 of 1965 under articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution for quashing the judgment of the Court of Small Causes	 Bombay	 dated February 11	 1965. By its judgment and order dated February 6	 1967	 the High Court held that neither the claim of the respondents Nos. 1 to 80 for over time wages	 nor the claim of the respondents Nos. 8 1 to 1 1 8 for wages for weekly off days was barred by the Award	 Part 11	 dated March 30	 1950 in Reference (IT) No. 54 of 1949. So far as the respondents Nos. 1 to 80 were concerned	 the High Court has set aside the judgment of the Court of Small Causes	 Bombay	 ;is well as the order dated October 13	 1962 of the Additional Authority and remanded their applications to the latter for ascertaining and decreasing the amount of over time wages that may be due to them. Regarding the respondents Nos. 8 1 to II 8 the High Court has set aside the judgment of the Court of Small Causes	 Bombay	 and restored the order dated April 26	 1963 of the Third Additional Authority recognising their claim for wages for weekly off days. It is seen from the judgment of the High Court that the Company did not challenge the finding of the Court of Small Causes that the workmen are employed in a "Commercial Establishment" and as such are entitled to the benefits of the provisions of the Establishments Act. The High Court has also stated that the reason given by the counsel appearing for the Company for not challenging that finding was that it was not open to the Company	 which was I respondent in the writ petition to challenge the said finding in those proceedings. Therefore the High Court has adjudicated upon the only question whether the Award bars the claims of the workmen as held by the Court of Small Causes. On this point	 as pointed out earlier	 the High Court disagreed with the decision of the Court of Small Causes. The appellant filed on April 6	 1967 in the High Court Application No. 869 of 1967 praying	 for the grant of a certificate of fitness to enable it	 to appeal to this Court In the application of the appellant	 after setting out the nature of the applications filed before 934 the Additional and Third Additional Authorities	 the amounts claimed by the work men	 the decision of the said two Authorities as well as the judgment and order of the Court of Small Causes	 and the High Court	 it was stated that the amount or value of the subject matter before all the Authorities	 in the appeals	 as well as in the High Court and still in dispute in the proposed appeal to this Court	 was Rs. 20	000 and upwards. It was further stated that in any event the case is a fit one for appeal to this Court. Accordingly	 the appellant prayed for the grant of a certificate that the amount or value of the subject matter in the said Special Civil Application	 applications before the Additional and Third Additional Authorities	 in the appeals before the Court of Small Causes and in dispute in the proposed appeal to this Court was Rs. 20	000 and upwards or in the alternative on the ground that the case is a fit one for appeal to this Court. It will be seen	 that though the appellant did not specify under which clause of article 133(1) the certificate was asked for	 nevertheless a perusal of the averments made in the petition and the prayers made therein show that the appellant was asking for a certificate under clauses (a) and	 or (c) of article 133(1). The High Court after hearing all parties	 by its order dated October 19	 1967 directed a certificate to issue under article 133(1)(b) of the Constitution. The respondent ha; filed C.M.P. No. 1300 of 1972 requesting this Court to revoke the certificate granted to the appellant by the High Court on October 19	 1967. If the certificate is revoked	 that will result in our holding that the appeal is not competent. Hence we will deal with the application for revocation of the certificate. In the affidavit filed in support of the application for revocation	 the following averments are made: The appeal refers to two sets of claims which are separate and independent of each other one for over time wages and the other for wages for weekly off days. The applications in respect of these two different claims were filed by the concerned workmen before two different Authorities under the Act and were also disposed of separately by those Authorities. Separate appeals were preferred before the Court of Small Causes. Though a common judgment was delivered by the Court of Small Causes	 the two sets of claims have been dealt with independently and separately in the judgment	 as there were	 separate and different appeals. The claim for weekly off days wages comes only to Rs. 6675 and that was the value of the subject matter before the Third Additional Authority and in the appeal before the Court of Small Causes as well as in the writ petition before the High Court. The same is the value of the subject 935 matter of the appeal to this Court. The value of the subject matter of the claim in respect of over time wages was only Rs. 10660 before the Additional Authority and in the appeals before the Court of Small Causes	 in the High Court	 as well as in the appeal before this Court. The value of the subject matter of neither of the two separate and distinct claims is Rs. 20	000; and even if both the claims are added	 the value of the subject matter is less than Rs. 20	000. It was	 in view of this circumstance	 that the High Court did not grant a certificate under Art.133(1)(a). The High Court did not consider the case as a fit one for appeal to this Court	 and hence no certificate was granted under Art.133(1)(c). What has weighed with the High Court in granting a certificate under Art.133(1)(b) is the circumstance that the nature of the demands made by the workmen were such that they are recurring claims arising in the future also and as such the final judgment and order in the writ petition involve directly or indirectly a claim respecting property of the value of not less than Rs. 20	000. This view of the High Court is erroneous and contrary to the decisions of this Court and as such the grant of ' certificate by the High Court is erroneous. Along with the application	 the respondents have filed a statment to show that the value of the subject matter of the claim regarding over time wages does not exceed Rs. 10660. At this stage it may be mentioned that according to the appellant this schedule deals only with the claims made by the Mains workers and it does not include the amount claimed by the 14 Syphon Pumpers. In this affidavit the averments made are as follows : Though the appeal has been. pending in this Court for a considerable time	 the respondents have filed the application for revocation of the certificate only when the appeal was about to be heard. It is pointed out that the respondents opposed before the High Court the application for grant of certificate on the ground that the aggregate of all claims put together amounts only to Rs. 17678.80 P.	 and hence no certificate should be granted. The appellant had filed a rejoinder giving details regarding the value of the subject matter of the appeal to this Court. As per the particulars given therein	 the value of the subject matter of the entire claim in respect of overtime wages	 weekly off days wages and compensation is of the value of Rs. 26822.09. Therefore	 the amount or value of the subject matter in dispute in the court of the first instance and still in dis pute in the appeal is Rs. 26822.09	 which is well over the prescribed limit of Rs. 20	000. The claim for weekly off days wages at the rate claimed by the workmen on the date of the judgment of the High Court	 that is February 6	 1967 became crystalised in	 the aggregate amount of over Rs. 30	000. Similarly	 the claim 936 for over. time wages as a result	 and effect of the judgment of the High Court	 as on the date of the decision in the writ petition	 also exceeds the sum of Rs. 20	000. The respondents raised a controversy regarding the amount or value of the subject matter in dispute before the High Court in application No. 869 of 1967. But	 inasmuch as the recurring claims of both weekly off days wages and over time was	 at the time of the High Court 's judgment in the writ petition on February 6	 1967	 had crystalised into amounts exceeding Rs. 20	000	 the High Court issued the certificate under Art.133(1)(b) and that the certificate so issued under the said Article is perfectly valid. We have set out fairly elaborately the claim made by the resPondents in C.M.P. No. 1300 of 1972 for revoking the certificate granted by	 the High court as well the	defence pleaded by the appellant to that application. But from the material averments made by the appellant in its application before the High Court for grant of certificate	 it is to be gathered that the prayer was substantially on the ground that the amount or value of the subject matter of the applications before the Payment of Wages Authorities	 in the appeals before the Court of Small Causes	 in the writ petition before the High Court and still in dispute in the proposed appeal to this Court was Rs. 20	0001/ and upwards. This prayer will bring the application under article 133(1) (a). In the alternative	 the certificate was prayed for on the ground that the case is fit one for appeal to this Court. This prayer will come under article 133 (1) (c). The request of the appellant for grant of certificate on the above basis was opposed by the respondents herein on the ground that the amount or value of the subject matter before all the Authorities	 the Court of Small Causes	 the High Court and in dispute in the proposed appeal before this Court was far below Rs. 20	000/ and as such the matter does not come under article 133(1) (a). It was also averred that there was no substantial question of law of any great importance arose for consideration so as to attract article 133 (1) (c). After giving details regarding the nature of the claims made by the workmen	 both as over time wages and weekly off days wages	 it was stated that the claim fell far short of the sum of Rs. 20	000/ . As the High Court had only adjudicated upon that claim in the	 writ petition	 the respondents pleaded that the judgment of the High Court does not involve directly or indirectly any claim or question respecting property of the value of Rs. 20	000/ or more. The High Court on October 19	 1967 granted the certificate in the following terms "Certificate to issue under article 133 (1)(b) of the Constitution. Costs in the Supreme Court appeal. " 937 From the above it will be seen that the High Court has not given any indication as to how it issued the certificate under article 133(1)(b). (a) or el. (c) of article 133(1). On the basis of the claims made by the workmen as over time wages and weekly off days *ages for the particular periods	 the appellant had calculated at the same rate for even subsequent periods till the date of the judgment of the High Court and claimed that the amount or value in dispute in appeal to this Court is over Rs. 26822.09 p. The appellant had also raised a point in its further affidavit before	 the High Court that it will have to meet in future also claims from its workmen and as such it will have to face a recurring liability. On this basis the appellant has raised a plea that the judgment of the High Court involves directly or indirectly a claim or question respecting property of the value of Rs. 20	000/ and more. In view of the fact that the High Court has granted the certificate under article 133(1)(b)	 it has to be presumed that it has accepted the appellant 's plea that a certificate could be granted under the said clause when there is a recurring liability	 which	 if calculated for subsequent years will be at least Rs. 20	000/ and more. The question is whether under circumstances the certificate granted under article 1 3 3 (1) (b) by the High Court	 is proper and valid. It is significant to note that in paragraph 7 of the petition of appeal filed in this Court	 the	 appellant has stated that it is not possible to estimate at a money value the subject 	matter of dispute in the appeal. Accordingly		 it has paid only a fixed	 court fee Rs. 250/ as per the rules. In the claim statement filed by the appellant before the High Court	 if has stated that Rs. 6675.84 is claimed as weekly off wages by the respondents Nos. 80 to 118 and a sum of Rs. 18221.25 is claimed by the respondents Nos. 1	 to 80 as over time wages. These two different claims were not consolidated before th Authorities because the claim for weekly off wages was dealt with by the	 Third Additional Authority and the claim for over time wages was dealt with by the Additional Authority. According to the Union the claim for over time wages does not exceed Rs. 1	0660/ But it is not	 necessary for us to go further into this aspect as article 1 33(1)(a) is out of the picture. The appellant	 relying on the calculation filed by it before the High Court has further stated in its affidavit dated February 18	 1972	 filed in opposition to the application for revocation	 that	 on the basis of the claim for weekly off wages in the sum of Rs ' 6675.84 p. for one year	 if calculated for the subsequent years Up to February 16	 1967 the	 date of the judgment of the High Court	 938 the amount will aggregate nearly Rs. 30	000/ . Similarly	 in respect. of over time wages	 on the basis of the claim made by the workmen	 if. calculated upto February 6	 1967	 the amount will exceed the sum of Rs. 20	000/ . It will be seen that if the claims made	 before each of the Authorities for the particular periods alone are taken into account	 the total claims will be less than Rs. 20	000/ . It is really that claim which was the subject of consideration by the High Court in the writ petition. Is it open to the appellant to add to the original claim made by the workmen	 the further amount calculated by it till the date of the judgment of the High Court and establish that as the total amount so arrived at is not less than Rs. 20	000/ 	 article 133(1)(b) can be invoked on the ground that the judgment of the High Court directly or indirectly involves a claim in respect of property of the value of not less than Rs. 20	000 / ? Even on the basis of the valuation worked out by the appellant	 it is seen that the claim for over time wages which was filed before the Additional Authority was valued only at Rs. 18221.25 p. as per the amended claim at 1 1/2 times of wages	 though according to the respondents the amount of claim does not exceed Rs. 10660/ . Similarly	 the claim for weekly off wages filed by another set	 of workmen before the Third Additional Authority	 even as per the appellant 's calculation was only Rs. 6675.84 p. The claim for over time wages and weekly off wages	 each of them takes separately does not exceed Rs. 20	000/ . Though the appeals against the decision of the two Authorities were filed before the Court of Small Causes	 it is to be noted that separate appeals were filed by different workmen and the appellant in respect of these two different categories of claims. Though the Court of Small Causes disposed of all the appeals by a common judgment	 nevertheless the claim in respect of over time wages was dealt with apart and different from the claim for weekly off wages. Even before the High Court	 though one writ petition was filed by all the workmen	 the claims under two different heads for over time wages and weekly off wages were dealt with separately by the High Court. It is not as if that the reasons given by the High Court for upholding the claims for over time wages automatically resulted in the allowing of the claim for _weekly off wages also. In fact entirely different considerations apply for the two different sets of claims and that has been kept in view by the High Court. Though	 ultimately	 the High Court has delivered only a common judgment	 nevertheless the decision related to two different sets of claims each having nothing in common with the other. Therefore	 it was not open to the appellant to ask this Court to proceed on the basis that there was only one single and common claim dealt with by the High Court in its judg ment. Therefore	 there was no question of any consolidation Of all the claims before the High Court. In this view it will be seen 939 that even according to the calculations made by the appellant	 the value of the subject matter of the claim with respect to over time wages can only be the same as was before the Additional Authority	 namely	 Rs. 18221.25 p. which is less than Rs. 20	000/ . Similarly	 the amount or value of the claim which was adjudicated upon by the High Court in respect of weekly off wages was also of the same value as Rs. 6675.84 p. as was the case before the Third Additional Authority	 which claim is also less than Rs. 20	000/ . Therefore	 considering the matter from this point of view	 it is clear that the value of the subject matter of the claim before the High Court in respect of each of these matters was less than Rs. 20	000/ . The appellant	 as mentioned earlier	 has calculated at the same rate as claimed for over time wages and weekly wages	 for subsequent years upto the date of the judgment of the High Court and has stated that so calculated the amount or value of the subject matter of the claim relating to weekly off wages exceeds Rs. 30	000/ . Similarly	 the amount or value of the subject matter of the claim of over time wages exceeds Rs. 20	000/ and hence it is stated that the judgment of the High Court involves directly or indirectly a claim or question respecting property of the value of Rs. 20	000/ and more. Mr. M. C. Bhandare	 learned counsel for the respondents	 in support of the application filed for revocation of the certificate has urged that before the High Court there was no claim or question arising for consideration excepting the subject matter of overtime wages and weekly off wages claim for a particular period by the workmen. No claim for any further period has been made by them; nor did it arise for consideration before either the Authorities	 the Court of Small Causes or the High Court. Nor does such a claim arise for consideration in the appeal to this Court. There fore	 he pointed out that the judgment of the High Court does not either directly or indirectly involve any claim apart from what was the subject matter of dispute between the parties. The High Court not having granted the certificate under article 133(1)(a)	 it follows that the amount or value of the subject matter of the dispute before it or on appeal to this Court was not Rs. 20	000/ or above. Clause (c) of article 133(1) also stands excluded as the High Court has not granted the certificate on the ground that the case is a fit one	 for appeal to this Court	 and as Mr. Sorabji	 learned counsel for the appellant	 has represented that he is not relying on that clause. In order to attract article 1 3 3 (1) (b)	 under which the certificate has been granted	 the essential requirement is that there must be involved in the appeal to this Court a	 claim or question respecting property of the value of not less than Rs. 20	000/ in addition to or other than the subject matter of the dispute. In this case this condition is not satisfied. It is laid down in that decision as follows "The variation in the language used in cls. (a) and (b) of article 133 pointedly highlights the conditions which attract the application of the two clauses. Under el.(a) what is decisive is the amount or value of the subject matter in the court of the first instance and "still in dispute" in appeal to the Supreme Court : under el. If in a proposed appeal there is no claim or question raised respecting property other than the subject matter	 el. (a) will apply; if there is involved in the appeal a claim or question respecting property of an amount or value not less than Rs. 20	000/ in addition to or other than the subject matter of the dispute el. (b) will apply." From the facts stated in the above decision it is seen that the appellant therein pleaded oil an alternative; basis that the claim in the appeal; exceeded Rs. 20	000/ . That alternative claim	 was on the basis of adding interest at 6% per annum to his original claim as awarded by the trial court whose decree he wanted to be restored in the appeal. not open to the appellant to plead that the valuation in the appeal exceeds Rs. 20	000/ . From the decision	 cited above	 the following principles emerge (1) In order to attract article 133(1)(b) the property respecting which the claim or question arises	 must be property in addition to or other than the subject matter of the dispute. (2) If in the appeal to this Court there is no question or claim raised 'respecting the property other than the subject matter	 then cl.(a) of article 133 ( 1) will apply. 941 (3) Adding future interest or possible further claims to the original value of the subject matter till the date of the judgment of the High Court	 and which items are not the subject of consideration by the High Court will not enable a party to plead that the claim so calculated exceeds Rs. 20	000/ . This is not permissible as the addition of interest or calculation of further possible claims are all related only to the original subject matter	 which is still in dispute. In A. V. Subramania Ayyar vs Sellammal(1)	 under s.110 of the Code of Civil Procedure it was pleaded that though the Subject matter of the dispute in the court of first instance was less	 than Rs. 10	000/ 	 the final decree	 of the High Court involved a claim to property of over Rs. 10	000/ in value. This value at the relevant time was for purposes of appeal to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. The appellant added the mesne profits	 which according to him must be considered to have accrued subsequent to the date of the original claim made in the suit. So adding	 the appellant therein pleaded that the decision of the High Court must be considered as involving a claim to property of over Rs. 10	000/ in value. Though	 if the amount of mesne profits was added the value was over Rs. 10	000/ 	 the High Court rejected the plea on the ground that the claim for mesne profits has not been awarded by the decree	 nor was it the subject matter of dispute in	 the appeal. It was further field that the decision of the High Court has not affected the rights of the appellant 'therein in any property other than the one that was the subject matter in dispute. In this view	 it was held that the judgment of the	 High Court did not directly or indirectly involve any question to any property other than the subject matter of dispute. On this grounds certificates was refused. Mr. Sorabji	 learned counsel for the appellant; accepted the principle that to attract article 133(1) (b)the property	 referred to therein	 must be property in addition to or other than the subject matter of the dispute. In fact	 lie cannot but accept this principle as it has been so laid down by this Court in Chhitarmal V. M/S Sheh Pannalal Chandulal(2). The counsel did not rely on article	 133 ( i)(a) or (e) for the purpose of this appeal. He jointed out that as laid down by this Court in the decision	 referred to above	 the expression "property" in article 133(1)(b) would also take in claims regarding money. He noticed out that the appellant in this case is prejudiced by the judgment of the High Court as it will have to face recurring liability in future at the hands of its workmen	 on the basis of the claims made by them is over time wages and weekly off wages. It is that liability which the appellant will have to face Madras 843. (2) ; L1061 Sup CI/72 942 and which has been imposed upon it to its prejudice by the judgment of the High Court	 that is sought to be got rid of in the appeal to 'this Court. As the recurring liability or claim will be more than Rs. 20	000/ the matter squarely falls under article 133(1)(b) and the certificate granted by the High Court is correct. Clause (b) of article 133(1) will be attracted even if the	 judgment indirectly involves a claim in respect of property or money of not thin Rs. 20	000/ . He referred us to the decision in Meghji Lakhamshi and Brothers vs Furniture Workshop(1) where the Judicial Committee had to construe article 3 (a) of the Eastern African (Appeal to Privy Council) Order in Council. The latter part of this Article was as follows ". or where the appeal involves directly or indirectly some claim or question to or respecting	 property or some civil right amounting to or of the said value or upwards. It is no doubt true that the value has to be considered from the point of view of the appellant. The property may also include money. But it is essential under article 133(1)(b) that the claim must be in respect of property or money which property or money must be different from the subject matter of the litigation. Therefore	 the decision of the Judicial Committee is no	 (If much assistance to the appellant. Mr. Sorabji	 then referred us to the decision of the Full Bench of Andhra Pradesh High Court in Smt. Rajah Kishore vs Bhaskara Gouta Chorani and others(2) Dealing with cls. (a) and (b) of article 133 (1) the High Court says "In our opinion	 clause (b) of article 1 33(1) is intended to meet a situation es sentially different from that arising under clause (a). Under clause (a) we have to look at the value of the reliefs obtainable in the suit and in the appeal. Under clause (b) we have to look at the effect of the judgment appealed against from the point of view of the appellant. A thing	 is said to be involved in another when it is a necessary resultant of that other. (Stroud 's Judicial Dictionary). The matters adjudicated upon in the judgment appealed from may have far reaching consequences detrimental to the property of the appellant	 although they were not comprised in the cause of action (1) [1954] Appeal Cases 80. (2) A. I. R. 1960 Al.P. 286.943 of the plaintiff and cannot be regarded as being "still in dispute" on appeal. This decision in fact emphasises quite rightly that to attract cl.(b) of article 133(1) one has to look to the effect of the judgment sought to be appealed against on other properties which are not the subject matter of dispute and are not comprised as such in the litigation. Similarly	 the decision of the Madras High Court in Commissioner of Income tax Madras vs section L. Mathias(1) is also of no assistance to the appellant. The facts of the said decision show that the High Court was of the view that there is a difference of opinion between the High Courts on the effect of the Proviso 2 to section 4(2) of the Income tax Act	 1922. The High Court was of the view that "there can be no doubt that +the question involved is a substantial question of law"	 and on this basis granted a certificate of fitness. It is clear that the High Court granted the certificate on the ground that there was a substantial question of law involved in the appeal and as such it was a fit one for appeal to the Judicial Committee. Mr. Sorabji then referred us to the decision of the Madras High Court in G. Appuswamy Chettiar and another	 vs R. Sarangapani Chettiar and others ( 2) In that case the suit was for a declaratory relief regarding the invalidity of the adoption of a particular person. 'The certificate was asked for on the ground that the decision of the High Court involves directly or indirectly a claim or question respecting property of the value of Rs. 20.000/ and more. It was accepted by the High Court that if leave to appeal was not granted to the petitioners therein	 they will lose an estate worth more than Rs. 68	000/ though the estate itself was not directly the	 subject matter of dispute either in the trial court or the High Court. The High Court further held that in a suit for a declaration of adoption a claim made by the reversioners to the property cannot be considered to be too remote. It is on this ground that the certificate was granted. It is clear from the judgment of there High Court that the final decision of the High Court in that case did affect the right 's of the petitioners therein to properties of the value of more than Rs. 68	000/ . It is on that basis that the certificate was granted under article 133(1)(b). In our opinion	 the decisions relied on by Mr. Sorabji do not support his contention that the certificate granted by the High (1) A.I.R. 1938 Mad. 352 (2) 944 Court	 in the case before us	 under article 133(1)(b) is proper and valid. In fact the said decisions clearly bring out the distinction between cls. (a) and (b) of article 133 (1) and they lay down that only when the judgment or final order affects property which is not the subject matter of the	 litigation that article 133(1)(b) apply. Those decisions are in conformity with the principles laid down by this Court in Chhitarmat vs M/s Shah Pannalal Chandulal(1). It is clear that interest	 unless granted 'by the decree or the trial court	 cannot be notionally added to inflate the value of the claim in the appeal so as to make it appear that on the date of the judgment of the High Court the value is not less than Rs. 20	000/ . On the same principle	 we have already pointed out that mesne profits	 which have not been decreed by the trial court	 cannot be added to the original claim made in the suit	 so as to enable a party to. plead that the value in the proposed appeal on the date of the judgment of the High Court is more than Rs.20	000/ . We may refer to the decision of the Judicial Committee in Moti Chand and others vs Ganga Parshad Singh and an other (2) where interest awarded under the decree of the trial court was taken into account for the purpose of considering the value in the appeal before the High Court. The suit was for recovery of a certain amount together with interest. By the time the High Court 's decree was made	 the amount at issue had reached to Rs. 10636/ with further contingent increment. The High Court declined to grant the certificate on the round that the amount or value of the subject matter of the suit in the court of first instance was not Rs. 10	000/ as required by the 	aid section though the amount or value of the matter in dispute on appeal to Her Majesty in Council was above Rs. 10	000/. No doubt	 this decision is not on the question 'regarding matters covered by cl.(1) of article 13 '(1). But we	 are only referring to this decision to show that interest can be taken into account for the purpose of considering the value in an appeal	 provided the decree itself has awarded interest. We may also refer to the decision of the Judicial Committee in Surapati Roy & others vs Ram Narayan and Mukherji & others(3). In that decision the question arose under section 110 of the Code of Civil Procedure 1908 regarding the validity of the certificate granted by the High Court. Though the rent claimed in the suits was less than Rs. 10	000/ the High Court had granted a certificate of fitness on the ground that the value of the subject matter (1) [1965] 2 S.C.R.751 (2) 29 Indian Appeals 40. (3) 50 Indian Appeals 155. 945 was over Rs. 10	000/ . The objection taken before the Judicial Committee regarding the validity of the certificate	 on the ground that the subject matter was below the appealable value was rejected as follows : ". . The certificate in the circumstances is quite in order. " It is to be noted that the liability which was being denied as due to the landlord	 by way of rent from the lands in question was in respect of the properties in question and it was on that basis that the certificate was held to be valid. Both the above decisions of the Judicial Committee have no application to the facts of the present case on hand. 'The principle that a claim made by one party and resisted by another is ordinarily the subject matter of the dispute in the trial court and continues to be the subject matter in the Appellate Courts. In the case before us the claims for over time wages and weekly off wages before the Authorities were for a specified period. The claims for the identical periods were the subject matter in the appeals before the Court of Small Causes. The High Court had also to consider the correctness of the decision of 'he Court of Small Causes regarding the claims made by the workmen for the particular periods. The appellant was not entitled to notionally add on to the amount originally claimed by the workmen for particular periods	 any further amounts on the ground that they must be considered to have accrued due to the workmen till the date of the judgement of the High Court. If in the proposed appeal to this Court there is no claim or question raised respecting property	 other than the subject matter of dispute	 clause (a) of Article 133(1 ) will apply. That clause has no		 been invoked in this case by the High Court. It is not possible to accept the contention of Mr. Sorabji that as the appellant will have to face from its workmen in future claims similar to the one recognised by the High Court	 there is involved a claim or question in respect of property of the value of not less than Rs. 20	000 / in addition to or other than the (1) [1965] 2 S.C.R.751 946 subject matter of appeal. In the first place	 this contention proceeds on the assumption that the judgment of the High Court directs talk appeal Lo pay in future amounts not less than Rs. 20	000/ . This assumption is basically erroneous	 as there is no such direction given by the High Court. The payment of wages as for over time or weekly off days will depend upon several circumstances.if over time work is not taken	 then no payment need be made. If over time work is taken for a lesser time	 then the amount to be paid will also be less. In our opinion	 this is not a case where the decision of the High Court	 apart from clearing with the subject matter in dispute before it	 has tthe effect of affecting the rights of the appellant regarding other properties	 including money. We may give an instance where a final judgment may have an impact or affect properties	 other than the subject matter in dispute. In a suit for mandatory injunction directing a defendant to vacate a land	 the	 subject matter of the suit may be only of the value of Rs. 1500/ but the decree granted by the High Court may result in the defendant therein being obliged to remove buildings worth more than Rs. 20	000/ . so as to give vacant possession of the land in accordance with the decision of the High Court. In such a case	 though the value of the subject matter in dispute before the High Court may be only Rs. 1500/ 	 the judgment	 can be considered to involve indirectly a claim or question respecting property (in this case the buildings) of the value of no '	 less than Rs. 20	000/ . Such a case may attract article 133(1)(b). The position before us is entirely different. The judgment of the High Court has only adjudicated upon the subject neither of the specified claim of the workmen which was	 as mentioned earlier	 for a particular period. That judgment does not involve directly or indirectly apart from the subject matter of the writ petition	 any claim or using respecting property or money of the value of Rs. 20	000/ and more. In this view	 we are of the opinion that the certificate granted by the High Court under article 133(1)(b) is not valid and proper. In the view that we take that the certificate ranted by the High Court is not valid and that the appeal brought on such a certificate is not sustainable	 we do not express any opinion on the merits	 though arguments were heard on the same. As the certificate issued by 	he High Court under article 133 (1) (b) is not proper and valid	 the only course oven to us is to revoke the certificate and set aside the order of the High Court granting the same. The result is	 the appeal has become unsustainable	 as it has been	 brought to this Court on a certificate which	 as	 held by us	 has not been properly and validly granted. 947 in the result	 C.M.P. No. 1300 of 1972 is allowed	 and the appeal is held to be not maintainable and as such dismissed. In C.M.P. N. ). 1300 of 1972 the respondents will be entitled to costs. 	 In the appeal there will be no order as to costs. K.B.N. Appeal dismissed.

In order to attract article 133(1)(b) the essential requirement is that there must be involved in the appeal to this Court a claim or question respecting property of the value of not less than Rs. 20	000/ in addition to or other than the subject matter of the dispute; if there is no question or claim raised respecting property other than the subject matter	 then	 clause (a) of article 133 will apply. Adding future interest or possible further claims to the original value of the subject matter till the date of the judgment of the High Court and which items are not the subject of consideration by the High Court will not enable a party to plead that the claim so calculated exceeds Rs. 20	000. [94O G] The respondent had filed applications under the Payment of Wages Act 1948	 claiming overtime wages for the period 1957 to 1958 and wages for weekly off days for the period 1962 to 1963. Against the judgment of the High Court setting aside the order of the appellate authority holding the claim as time barred	 the appellants filled appeal to this Court on the basis of a certificate issued by the High Court under article 133(1)(b). In its application before the High Court the appellant had prayed for the grant of a ' certificate that the amount or value of the subject matter before all the authorities	 in the appeals	 as well as in the High Court and still in dispute in the proposed appeal to this Court was Rs. 20	000/ and upwards	 and	 in the alternative on the ground that the case was fit one for appeal to this Court. On the basis of the claims made by the workmen as overtime wages and weakly off days wages for the particular periods	 the appellant had calculated at the same rate for subsequent periods till the judgment of the High Court and claimed that the amount or value in dispute in appeal to this Court was over Rs. 20	000/ . The appellant bad also urged that it would have to meet in future also claims from its workmen and	 as such	 it will have to face a recurring liability. On this basis the appellant had raised the plea that the judgment of the High Court involved directly or in	 directly a claim or a question in respect of property of the value of Rs. 20	000/ and more. The respondents moved this Court for revocation of the Certificate. They urged that what weighed with the High Court 'for granting a certificate under article 133(1)(b) was the circumstance that the nature of the demands by the workmen were such as they were recurring claim arising in the future also and as such the final" judgment and order of the High Court involved directly or indirectly a claim respecting property of the value not less than Rs. 20	000/ and that thisview of the High Court was erroneous '. HELD :that the certificate issued by the High Court under article 13	3(1)(b) was not proper and valid and hence the appeal was unsustainable. 930 (i) The High Court has not given any indication as to how it issued the certificate under article133(1)(b); it is clear that it did not grant the certificate on the claim made by the appellant	 under clause (a) or clause (c) of article 133(1). [937 A] (ii) In view of the fact that the High Court granted the certificate under article 133(1)(b)	 it has to he presumed that it has accepted the appellant 's plea that a certificate could be granted under the clause when there is a recurring liability	 which	 if calculated for subsequent years	 will be Rs. 20	000/ or more. [937 C D] (iii) But	 the present case is not one where the decision of the High Court	 apart from dealing with the subject matter in dispute before it	 has the effect of affecting the rights of the appellant regarding other properties	 including money. The judgment of the High Court has only adjudicated upon the subject matter of the specified claim of the work men which was for a particular period. The judgment does not involve directly or indirectly	 apart from/the subject matter of the writ petition	 any claim or question respecting property or money of the value of Rs. 2O	000/ and more. The appellant was not entitled to notionally add	 to the amount originally claimed by the workmen for particular periods any further amounts on the ground that they must be considered to have accrued due to the workmen till the date of the judgment of the High Court.
