https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=313517 Article 226(2) permits writ jurisdiction only where a pleaded and material part of the cause of action arises within the High Court's territory. On the facts stated, the petitioner-firm was based in Punjab, the impugned notice was issued from Punjab, and service was effected there; those facts did not create territorial jurisdiction in Rajasthan. A business connection with a Rajasthan entity, or the fact that the notice came from a common departmental file, was not an integral part of the cause of action. The departmental circular governing multiple notices also did not confer jurisdiction. The writ petition was therefore not maintainable before the Rajasthan High Court for want of territorial jurisdiction. en-us Mon, 07 Aug 2023 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 19 Apr 2024 08:08:23 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=313517 Article 226(2) permits writ jurisdiction only where a pleaded and material part of the cause of action arises within the High Court's territory.
