The NCLAT held that the NCLT cannot decide on non-computation of salary after the layoff period under the Industrial Disputes Act. The case involved a dispute over salary payments following an employee’s layoff, but the NCLAT ruled that such matters fall under the jurisdiction of the Industrial Disputes Act, and the NCLT cannot address these issues. The ruling clarifies the jurisdictional boundaries between the NCLT and other labor law authorities in resolving employee-related disputes.
