Court Orders Reconsideration of Petitioner's H Forms Request; No Additional Relief Granted; No Costs Imposed.
The HC disposed of the writ petition, directing the 1st respondent to address the petitioner's representation concerning the H Forms in accordance with the law and established precedents. The court did not impose any costs and ordered the closure of any pending miscellaneous petitions. The petitioner's request for a Writ of Mandamus was acknowledged, but no substantive relief was granted beyond the directive for reconsideration.
Issues Involved: The issue involved in this case is the failure of the 1st respondent to take action against the letter filed by the petitioner enclosing H Forms post-assessment for the period 2011-12 (CST), leading to the petitioner seeking a Writ of Mandamus or any other appropriate writ or order to declare the inaction as illegal, arbitrary, and contrary to law.
Judgment Details:
1. The petitioner filed a writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking a Writ of Mandamus or any other appropriate writ or order to direct the 1st respondent to pass orders afresh considering the H forms filed by the petitioner. The petitioner's counsel highlighted that despite making a representation enclosing H Forms immediately after the assessment order, no action was taken by the 1st respondent.
2. The Government Pleader for Commercial Tax argued that the question of considering H Forms does not arise as there are pending cases seeking direction for accepting H Forms filed after the assessment order. He pointed out that the assessment order only mentions filing of C Forms within a specified period, not H Forms.
3. After considering the submissions from both parties, the High Court disposed of the writ petition by directing the 1st respondent to deal with the petitioner's representation in accordance with the law and established court precedents. The court did not award any costs in this matter, and any miscellaneous petitions pending in this case were ordered to be closed.
