I have gone through the case.

The case does not repudiates the validity of the PRINCIPLE OF NOTIONAL EXTENSION. Although in that particular case the claim was rejected.

There are several other cases in which it has been allowed; for example :

Rajanna vs Union Of India on 19 April, 1995

Rajanna vs Union Of India on 19 April, 1995

wherein the following cases were also cited :

Saurashtra Salt Manufacturing ... vs Bai Valu Raja And Ors. on 28 April, 1958

General Manager, Prakasham ... vs Pavuralla Santhakumari And Ors. on 24 September, 2003

The Management Of Pannimedu ... vs Chandra on 20 April, 1998

Even in thee instant case cited; the Theory of Notional Extension has not been denounced; but not allowed in this particular case.

Generally Courts have UNEQUIVOCALLY supported the principle of Notional Extension of employment wherever the Transport facility has been provided by the employer.

Only in cases of personal transport or alternate arrangement, there has been ambiguity.

However, the fact stands that ALL good companies have adopted the Principle of Notional Extension; wherein generally 1 hour before duty hours and 1 hour after duty hours; which is normally reckoned as the period of arriving to workplace; has been covered.

The philosophy of such benevolent and employee-friendly companies has been that had it not been for the purpose of duty, the employee would not have been at the place of employment or met with an accident.

One needs to honour such time-tested traditions without going in for Court Cases for each and every matter. For example; nowhere does the Law say that one has to GIVE PROMOTIONS to its employees. Does it mean that the Law BARS promotions ?? Or, employers NEED NOT give promotions to employee as there is no law that forces employers to give promotions or increments to deserving employees??

Its the choice of the company, whether it chooses to be a good company; and HR has an important role to play in it by having an attitude of employee-welfare and motivation; rather than getting praise and personal rewards by cutting such costs.

Warm regards.
