As it was already settled law, the Court found no substantial question of law to be decided.Charging of Interest on Refunds:On the matter of charging interest u/s.234D on refunds granted before 1/6/2003, the Court highlighted that the relevant provision came into effect from 1/6/2003 and did not have retrospective application.
