Dear Retirees from Commercial Banks,
CBREA, the foremost retirees association started in 2001 is spearheading successful legal battles for the VRS / normal retirees for the past 17 years.
We have taken up the issue of payment of interest for the period of delayed payment of gratuity and the undersigned argued nearly 200 cases and won interest on delayed payment of gratuity.
In Central Bank and Andhra Bank, interest on interest for delay is also argued and won.
We are one of the parties before the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Mohandas Vs Bank of India and as a result of the judgment 5 years notional service benefit has been accorded to PSU banks excluding Associate Banks and private sector banks.
We are responsible for taking up the case before Madras High Court in C Sankari Vs State Bank of Hyderabad and winning the case. As a result of Mrs Sankari’s case, State Bank of Travancore each retirees have received nearly 11 lacs of rupees as arrears. Mrs C Sankari has put in only 19 years of service under VRS and SBH denied pension to her as she has not completed 20 years. All subsidiary banks have paid pension to those retired under VRS having less than 20 years of service and who were denied pension because of this judgment. Mrs Sankari got nearly Rs 10 lacs as arrears and also granted pension now. Google C.Sankari Vs State Bank of Hyderabad.
