M.C.Singla Banks Pensioners Case in SC hearing on 17/12/2025

Now, it is posted on 14.01.2026 in keeping with recent guidelines issued by new Chief Justice of Supreme Court of India.

We do not want to raise the expectation of pensioners. Please do not cuss as no body( read ufbe,pensioners Federation,iba and DFS)  will assume responsibility to take the case to its logical end. Pensioners are once again taken for a jolly ride.

Better we can forget updation and SC verdict. I feel. It won't come until all Retirees reached the heaven. Then SC will give Good verdict. Media will write good judgement given by SC. But they forgot to write how many beneficiary benefited. We are in India. That is the present stage.

It is indefinitely postponed.

 In 2024 after Petition for early hearing SC listed the case on 22.10.24. But then CJI sanjeev Khanna changed rules  and our case was not heard, 

After a long gap M C singhla case was listed on 10.12.2025 and after 2 years Hon.Judge was ready to hear the case.(last actual hearing took place in Nov 2023)

So It is unbelievable that petitioners advocates are staying in some other cities on the hearing day.

Is there any understanding between petitioners-respondents and negotiators?

Once opportunity is missed it will be very difficult to get the  case listed.

As long as the case is pending IBA-UFBU will be happy so  that they can postpone discussions citing Sub Judice.

Pension Updation has been made a mocking stock by leaders and the court. No one is taking the matter seriously, they are playing ping pong ball.

It is alleged that In both LIC updation case and  M C Singhla case some unknown hands are controlling the situation. So it seems.

LIC updation case was going in the right direction with a few weeks gap between hearings.

On 12.11.2025 Hon.judges observed documents  common compilation were submitted without attaching documents.So Hon.judge appointed two advocates on record for both sides, LIC management and Pensioners to collect fresh compilation and written submissions within two weeks and posed the case for final hearing on 03.12.2025. It is reported that Pensioner's side submitted  4000 page submissions and documents within two weeks as directed by the judge. But on 03.12.2025 to pensioners' surprise nearing was adjourned to 04.02.2026 without any reason. Some unconfirmed youtube posts suggest that LIC management, as advised by the union government, sought long adjournment  as it needs time obtain fresh actuary reports, compilation of data. So the case adjourned to 04.02.2026. It may be noted that SC will be closed for summer vacation from 01.06.2026 and will be reopened on 13.07.2026. It seems one of the judges hearing the case is going to retire on August 26 and after that a fresh bench is to be constituted. 

Usual practice is on the previous day of hearing date Advocates will have a brief session with clients to discuss strategy to be adopted on the hearing date.  In M C Singhla's case on the most crucial date advocates were absent. Latest brief from advocate Sri.Sevaram did not contain any mention of 10.12.2025 proceedings. It is uncertain whether the M C Singla case will be listed before summer holidays.
