Quantification of pre-deposit of 20% before filing an appeal - Disputed tax amount includes demand of interest or not - The High Court examined the relevant provisions and noted that the requirement for pre-deposit mentioned in Section 112(8)(b) does not include interest.

It further directed the respondents not to initiate any recovery proceedings until the writ petition is heard and disposed of.
