High Court orders assessment to proceed despite pending appeal, emphasizes timely resolution by Tribunal
The High Court directed the assessing authority to proceed with assessment despite pending appeal before the VAT Tribunal, with the draft order to be produced for review. The Court granted liberty to raise jurisdictional issues and disposed of the Special Leave Petition accordingly. The Court emphasized the importance of timely resolution of appeals by the Tribunal, directing it to decide the appeals within three months from the judgment date.
Issues: 1. Challenge to orders passed by Deputy Excise and Taxation Commissioner remitting the matter for a fresh order. 2. Jurisdictional issue regarding the assessing authority's direction to proceed with assessment despite pending appeal before VAT Tribunal.
Analysis: 1. The petitioner challenged orders passed by the Deputy Excise and Taxation Commissioner remitting the matter for a fresh order. The petitioner approached the High Court as the Value Added Tax Tribunal was non-functional. The High Court entertained the writ petition and directed the assessing authority to proceed with the assessment, with the draft order to be produced before the Court on the next hearing date. The petitioner filed a Special Leave to Appeal, arguing that the assessing officer's draft order would be without jurisdiction and could render the pending appeal before the Tribunal infructuous. The High Court granted liberty to the petitioner to raise these issues before it. The Special Leave Petition was disposed of accordingly.
2. The State of Punjab's counsel submitted that with the constitution of the VAT Tribunal, the petitioner should pursue their appeals there. The petitioner's counsel requested the Tribunal to decide the appeals and keep the draft order in abeyance during the appeal's pendency. The State's counsel agreed to keep the assessing authority's draft assessment order in abeyance pending the outcome of the appeals before the VAT Tribunal. The High Court, after hearing both counsels and considering the pending appeals before the VAT Tribunal, directed the Tribunal to decide the appeals within three months from the date of the judgment. This decision disposed of the writ petition, emphasizing the importance of the Tribunal's timely resolution of the appeals.
