DISCIPLINARY PROCEEDINGS AND DOMESTIC ENQUIRY

Domestic enquiry is a quasi judicial process conducted by an independent internal or external competent person within the organization to find out, if the allegations of misconduct reported against any employee are true or false. No codified law for conducting the domestic enquiry. The procedure of domestic enquiry has been developed by time-to-time judicial clarifications and interpretations. Punishing the employee without enquiry is illegal and dismissed employee is entitled to be reinstated with back wages. Not conducting the enquiry in accordance with the principles of natural justice or imposing punishment disproportionately higher than the nature and gravity of misconduct is also liable to be rejected by the court of law. Companies often make mistakes in this regard due to lack of expertise in enquiry procedure.
