The closure of the place of business and not itself
The closure of the place of business and not itself, the distinction between a lockout and a closure has been explained by the decision of this Court in the Management of Express Newspapers Ltd. v. Workers and Staff employed under it, AIR 1963 SC 569: (1963) 3 SCR 540. It was pointed out in that case that in the case of a closure the employer does not merely close down the place of business but he closes the business itself finally and irrevocably. A lock-out on the other hand indicates the closure of the place of business and not closure of the business itself. It is now well-established that in the case of a closure the employer does not merely close down the place of business but he closes the business finally and irrevocably, Tatanagar Foundry Co. Ltd. v. Their Workmen, AIR 1970 SC 1960: (1969) 3 SCC 464: (1970) 3 SCR 8....
