Imposition of a general penalty where concurrent assessment orders exist was held arbitrary under the doctrine against double punishment; consequence: the general penalty of Rs.50,000 was set aside. The liability for late fee was sustained on merits and the petitioner was directed to pay Rs.1,67,200 within 30 days; consequence: on compliance the impugned assessment order and recovery proceedings will be quashed and dropped immediately. Failure to comply permits recovery as if the petition were dismissed. Writ Petition disposed accordingly.
