Requirement that an appeal be accompanied by the prescribed fee is a mandatory statutory condition, but where the substantive payment was made within time and only documentary proof (challan) was not produced, that omission is a curable procedural defect; compliance in substance satisfies the statutory requirement and dismissal for non-furnishing of proof without adjudication on merits is inappropriate.
