Example 1:

Justice Arvind Kumar has been serving as a judge in the High Court of Karnataka for several years. Due to an increase in the number of cases and a shortage of judges in the High Court of Delhi, the National Judicial Appointments Commission (NJAC) recommends his transfer to the High Court of Delhi. The President of India, acting on this recommendation, issues an order transferring Justice Arvind Kumar to the High Court of Delhi. Upon his transfer, Justice Kumar is entitled to receive a compensatory allowance in addition to his regular salary, as determined by the Parliament or fixed by the President until such determination is made.

Example 2:

Justice Meera Sharma has been serving in the High Court of Kerala. The High Court of Punjab and Haryana is facing a backlog of cases and requires experienced judges to manage the workload. The NJAC recommends Justice Sharma's transfer to the High Court of Punjab and Haryana. The President approves this recommendation and issues an order for her transfer. During her tenure at the High Court of Punjab and Haryana, Justice Sharma receives a compensatory allowance along with her salary, as specified by the President until the Parliament decides on the exact amount.
