SVLDR Scheme liability computation stayed pending writ, with interim protection granted subject to deposit of admitted balance amount.

Under the SVLDR Scheme, the writ petition challenged a statement determining liability on the basis that an amount already deposited had not been credited in the computation. The HC issued notice, called for a reply-affidavit, and stayed the operation of the impugned statement pending further hearing, subject to deposit of the admitted balance amount mentioned in the declaration. Interim protection was therefore granted while the liability computation remained under judicial consideration.

Issues: Whether the impugned statement issued under the SVLDR Scheme should be stayed pending the writ petition, and whether notice should be issued in the matter.

Analysis: The writ petition assailed the impugned statement on the ground that the amount already deposited had not been taken into account while determining liability. Notice was issued, a reply-affidavit was called for, and the operation of the impugned statement was stayed pending further hearing, subject to deposit of the admitted balance amount mentioned in the declaration.

Outcome: Interim protection was granted and the matter was left pending for further consideration.
