After winning my case against unfair dismissal at the Labour Court, I’m entitled to reinstatement with back pay and benefits. But I was eligible for promotions before being suspended and fired. What additional benefits should I expect, given my qualifications?

Indian law does not automatically guarantee promotion upon reinstatement after unfair dismissal. You may be eligible for back pay and benefits that you would have received had you not been dismissed, but a promotion is not guaranteed unless your employer’s policies specifically provide for it. You can present your case for a promotion, highlighting your qualifications and the time you would have been eligible for it.
