The HC dismissed the writ petition challenging an assessment order on grounds of limitation and absence of Document Identification Number (DIN). The Court held that questions of limitation involve mixed questions of fact and law that cannot be summarily determined on affidavits alone.

The petition was deemed not maintainable as alternative and efficacious statutory remedies remained available to the petitioner.
