Validity of revisionary assessment order - failure of petitioner-company to file its objections to SCN within time - HELD THAT:- Perusal of the impugned revisionary assessment order demonstrates that the petitioner-company was served with notices, but it failed to file its objections within time. As it is stated that the earlier assessment which was subjected to revision resulted in a huge enhancement of the total Entertainment Tax payable by the petitioner-company, one more opportunity should be afforded to the petitioner-company to put forth its stand before the revisionary authority.

The revisionary authority quantified the total Entertainment Tax payable by the petitioner at Rs. 3,24,51,090 and directed the Entertainment Tax Officer to implement it. The petitioner's counsel argued that due to the company's commercial operations ceasing in 2017, it couldn't present objections timely. The court noted that the petitioner failed to file objections within the specified time despite being served with notices.

The petitioner-company's authorized representative, Mr. Sanjay Kumar Dubey, was identified with his contact details provided.

The revisionary authority was instructed to complete the process within two months from the date of receipt of the court's order. Any pending miscellaneous petitions in this matter were to be closed following this final decision, with no specific order regarding costs.
