The prior issue of the certificate in February 1999 did not justify the late filing, and mere representations to the Department were not treated as a satisfactory explanation for not invoking writ jurisdiction within a reasonable time. The challenge was therefore rejected and the writ petitions were dismissed. en-us Mon, 10 Mar 2003 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 08 Aug 2009 09:46:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=11410 Writ challenges to a certificate of intimation under section 90(1) of the Finance (No. 2) Act, 1998 were held barred by laches because the petitioners approached the Court after an inordinate, unexplained delay.
