Dear All,
Supreme Court of India on 12 February 2026, in Union of India v. SGT Girish Kumar & Ors (Civil Appeal Nos. 6820–6824 of 2018 and connected matters), held that the statutory three-year limitation period cannot be invoked to cap arrears of disability pension once entitlement has been judicially established.
Key Holds of the Judgment
The Bench (Justices Pamidighantam Sri Narasimha and Alok Aradhe) examined appeals arising from conflicting orders of the Armed Forces Tribunal — some of which restricted arrears to three years before filing, while others granted full arrears from specified cut-off dates (e.g., 01 Jan 1996 or 01 Jan 2006).
The Supreme Court held that disability pension is a recurring and vested right — it is not a mere bounty, but a deferred part of compensation once the governing conditions are satisfied.
Once entitlement to broad-banded disability pension stands judicially affirmed (particularly through the earlier three-Judge Bench decision in Union of India v. Ram Avtar, which was treated as a judgment in rem), arrears flowing from that entitlement cannot be truncated by reference to a three-year limitation, delay, or laches.
The Court therefore dismissed the Union of India’s appeals against Tribunal orders that granted full arrears and quashed Tribunal orders that had limited arrears to three years prior to filing.
A new Rule for Disability
pensioners , Income Tax Exemption case is announced
