Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jul-28-2008

Reported in: 2009(1)AWC204; [2008(118)FLR1171]; (2009)ILLJ565All

Amitava Lala, J.1. All the appeals are analogously heard because a common question is involved herein. The common question is whether insurance company is liable to pay interest and/or penalty to the claimants even in absence of contract between the employer and insurance company or not. According to us, it is obviously a substantial question of law which requires consideration at the threshold.First proviso to Sub-section (1) of Section 30 of the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1923 (hereinafter called as Act, 1923) categorically says that no appeal shall lie against any order unless any substantial question of law is involved in the appeal. Therefore, no appeal can be said to be maintainable as a matter of course unlike the other law or laws available in this field.2. Very often we come across the appeals from such type of orders passed by the respective Commissioners under Workmen's Compensation Act, 1923 (hereinafter called as the Commissioner) under which the insurance companies are f...
