The SC rejected respondents' objection to maintainability, found the Settlement Commission had not given reasons for reducing interest only by 50% and not waiving it entirely for AY 1989-90, accepted the writ petition and waived interest under s.234A, but refused to waive interest under s.234B and s.234C. The Special Leave Petition was dismissed, and consequential applications concerning abatement, condonation of delay and substitution required no separate orders.
1. Delay condoned. 2. Application seeking deletion of proforma respondent No.4 allowed. 3. Cause title to be amended accordingly. 4. After hearing counsel for the petitioners and perusal of the materials on record, the Court found "no good reason to interfere with the impugned order passed by the High Court." 5. The Special Leave Petition is dismissed. 6. Consequent to dismissal, no orders are required on applications for setting aside of abatement, condonation of delay in filing the application for setting aside of abatement, and application for substitution; those applications are disposed of.
