Case Note & Summary
The case concerns a writ appeal filed by V.S.S. Krishna, appearing in person, who was engaged as a Financial Services Executive under the LIC of India (Financial Services Executives) Scheme, 2007. He was subsequently terminated and claimed that commission due to him for 4626 policies mobilized by him had not been paid, despite the benefits being realized by the respondent Life Insurance Corporation of India. The appellant filed a writ petition, W.P.No.18088 of 2022, which was dismissed by a single Judge on 23.05.2024. Aggrieved by that order, the appellant filed the present intra-court appeal under Clause 15 of the Letters Patent. The appeal came up for hearing before a Division Bench comprising Justice S.M. Subramaniam and Justice K. Rajasekar. The appellant submitted that his engagement as a Financial Services Executive was governed by the scheme, which provided for remuneration as per Clause 17 and which also specified the contractual nature of the engagement under Clause 3 for an initial period of three years. The court noted these submissions and the scheme's provisions regarding selection (Clause 6) and remuneration structure. The judgment text provided does not contain the final decision, reasoning, or operative directions of the court.
