COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
2025:KER:82377
WP(C) Nos.7897, 9377/2025 & 10010 OF 2025 10
JUDGMENT
[WP(C) Nos.7897/2025, 9377/2025, 10010/2025]
These writ petitions have been filed by the retired
employees of the Kerala State Beverages (M & M)
Corporation [hereinafter referred to as 'the Beverages
Corporation) , seeking to set aside the orders rejecting their
option for higher pension.
2. Learned counsel appearing for the respondent
Employees Provident Fund Organization would submit that in
order to calculate the entitlement of the petitioners for higher
pension, the details of bulk payment made by the Beverages
Corporation, amounting to Rs.2,01,84,625/- [for the period
from December-2011 to June-2013] have to be made
available. It is submitted that the bulk payment was made
on 23.06.2014. It is submitted that, unless the month-wise
details of the payment which will identify the member in
whose favour the payment is made, the month and year to
which payment relates, the employer contribution and the
employee contribution and the contribution to the pension
scheme, it will be impossible for the Provident Fund
2025:KER:82377
Organization to calculate the entitlement of the individual
petitioners. It is also submitted that the salary details of the
petitioners have also to be produced.
3. Having heard the learned counsel appearing for
the petitioners in these writ petitions and the learned counsel
appearing for the Employees Provident Fund Organization, I
am of the opinion that the learned counsel appearing for the
Employees Provident Fund Organization is right in contending
that unless the details mentioned above are made available by
the Beverages Corporation, it might not be possible for the
Provident Fund Organization to calculate the benefits payable
to each of the individual petitioners or others, who may not
have approached this Court. The Beverages Corporation had
made the payment in bulk on account of the fact that for the
period from 12/2011 to 05/2013, the contribution was not
made on the basis of actual salary and was made on a lesser
amount and was subject to statutory limits.
4. Therefore, the writ petition will stand disposed of,
directing the Managing Director, Beverages Corporation to
provide the following details to the Provident Fund
Organization within a period of two months from the date of
2025:KER:82377
WP(C) Nos.7897, 9377/2025 & 10010 OF 2025 12
receipt of a certified copy of this judgment :-
(i) The month-wise break up of the bulk amount;
(ii) The identity of the member and the month
and year to which the payment relates;
(iii) The amount representing the employer
contribution and the employee contribution of
each of the persons concerned; and
(iv) The amount of contribution to the pension
Scheme;
(v) Salary details of the individuals concerned.
On receipt of the aforesaid details from the Beverages
Corporation, the Competent Authority of the Provident Fund
Organization shall recalculate the benefits payable to each of
the petitioners, without undue delay and within a period of
two months from the date on which the details are made
available by the Beverages Corporation.
Writ petition ordered accordingly.
