The case involves the Admission of appeal for compliance with the deposit requirement of 12.5% u/s 31 of the AP VAT Act. The rejection of endorsement was based on Form-H filing timing post CST assessment. The court held that u/s 31(1) IIIrd proviso, appeal admission requires proof of payment of due amounts and 12.5% difference. As no tax, penalty, or interest was due, the 12.5% deposit was not necessary. Citing M/s. Sri Hari Maharalayam Company case, the court directed appeal consideration without the 12.5% payment. The impugned order was set aside, directing the respondent to admit the appeal without III proviso compliance. The writ petition was allowed.
