https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=329439 Power to grant stay of recovery of disputed tax under the Andhra Pradesh Value Added Tax Act is discretionary and includes the power to refuse stay. A prima facie interim order on a stay request will not be interfered with in writ jurisdiction unless perversity or illegality is shown, and the High Court declined to disturb the refusal. Part-payment of disputed tax and a pending appeal do not create an automatic right to stay; the authority may decide the application on merits, while giving credit for amounts already deposited and, where appropriate, keeping coercive recovery in abeyance for a limited period. en-us Tue, 21 Jun 2016 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 01 Jul 2016 13:25:48 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=329439 Power to grant stay of recovery of disputed tax under the Andhra Pradesh Value Added Tax Act is discretionary and includes the power to refuse stay.
