https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=283933 A Government takeover made under a quasi-judicial power was upheld where the hearing was conducted by a competent departmental officer and the Minister independently considered the record before deciding; personal hearing by the Minister was not required. The takeover was also not invalid for want of reasons because a later speaking order set out the basis of the decision and matched the departmental record. No fresh prior hearing was required before extending the takeover period, since the owner had already been heard on the original order and the statutory scheme provided a remedy by seeking cancellation of the takeover. The challenge therefore failed on all substantive grounds. en-us Fri, 17 Dec 1982 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 21 Oct 2019 18:08:40 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=283933 A Government takeover made under a quasi-judicial power was upheld where the hearing was conducted by a competent departmental officer and the Minister independently considered the record before deciding; personal hearing by the Minister was not required.
