HC held that a Commissioner's mere decision to appeal does not automatically suspend a refund order under Section 54(11). The plain statutory language indicates that the pendency of an appeal does not ipso facto place the principal order in abeyance.

The writ petition was consequently allowed, directing immediate refund to the petitioner.
