The case concerns the entitlement of pre-2006 retirees to 50% of last pay drawn.
The Kerala High Court allowed the entitlement in favour of the individual petitioner, while holding that the Association, though a petitioner, had no locus standi to espouse the cause.
DOT did not implement even the relief granted to the individual petitioner and has challenged the High Court judgment before the Supreme Court.
Separately, AIBSNLPWA filed its own SLP before the Supreme Court specifically on the question of its locus/standing to espouse the cause of its members.
In AIBSNLPWA's SLP, notice had already been issued.
In the present DOT SLP (Diary No. 47131/2026), the Supreme Court has now condoned the delay and ordered notice to be issued.
Thus, both matters will now be heard together, bringing the question of the Association's locus and the underlying challenge to the High Court judgment before the Supreme Court together.

The Supreme Court of India has listed the case SLP(C) No. SCIN010263952026, filed by the All India Pensioners Association against the Union of India and The Secretary, concerning service laws and retiral benefits/pension.
