A bench led by Justice Purushaindra Kumar Kaurav of the Delhi High Court allowed Nayara's plea to withdraw the case, granting the company liberty to approach the court again should similar grievances arise.

"When the respondent has already restored the petitioner's services, then having considered the submissions made by learned counsel for the parties, the court at this stage does not deem it appropriate to keep this matter pending and instead allows the petitioner to withdraw the petition, with liberty to file afresh in case so necessitated. All rights and contentions are left open," the court said in its order.
