Jet Airways Workers Win PF and Gratuity Battle as Court Rejects SBI's Appeal
mint - companies·Wednesday, 1 July 2026
India's appellate tribunal NCLAT has dismissed a plea by SBI that sought to block priority payment of provident fund and gratuity dues to Jet Airways employees during the airline's liquidation. The ruling confirms that workers' dues must be paid before secured creditors like banks. Jet Airways collapsed in 2019, leaving thousands of employees unpaid for years.
Why It Matters
This directly affects thousands of former Jet Airways employees who have been waiting years for their legally owed retirement and severance money. It also sets a precedent for how worker dues are treated when any large Indian company goes bust.
