Refund of amount wrongly deducted or paid to the Revenue Authorities - withholding of tax - It is indisputable that for the past over 13 years neither Kvaerner nor DAVY has claimed any amount from the Revenue Authorities under the issue at hand. Moreover, Kvaerner, who is the successor-in-interest of DAVY has also addressed its ‘no objection’ to Respondent No. 1 conveying that the amount can be returned or refunded to Petitioner. - In our view, the refusal of the Department to return the amount and retaining the same is unauthorized by law and would only amount to unjust enrichment by the Department on technical grounds. - HC
