CWP-23172-2015 (O&M) 2 envisages the entitlement of compensation in case management or ownership of an undertaking is transferred.
3. In the present case, it has already come on record that respondent No.2-M/s Dhilion Cool Drinks and Breweries Ltd had offered the petitioners-workmen the benefit of compensation which they never accepted but still, an enhanced amount of compensation has been given to them to the tune of Rs. 1 lac though the standard amount of compensation which the workmen would have got is around Rs.25,000/-.
4. Keeping in view the fact that Rs.75,000/- more than the usual amount of compensation has already been granted to them, no ground is made out for any interference by this Court so as to enhance the compensation as being claimed in the present writ petition.
5. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed.
