HC dismissed the writ petition challenging rejection of condonation of delay in filing ITR for AY 2018-19. It held that a 30-month delay could not be excused under the "genuine hardship" proviso merely on the generic plea of disputes between directors and financial difficulty, particularly when the company remained a going concern and had duly filed ITRs for AYs 2017-18 and 2019-20.

Relying on precedent, the HC held that liberal construction of "genuine hardship" cannot extend to condoning such inordinate, unjustified delay.
