The assessee's appeals were dismissed by ITAT for non-appearance and non-payment of taxes. HC held that writ jurisdiction could not be invoked after 9 years when statutory remedy under IT Act was available but not pursued. The court noted that allowing such delayed challenges merely upon payment of tax liability would set dangerous precedent, making every assessment order susceptible to reopening after long delays at assessee's convenience. en-us Tue, 20 May 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 14 Jul 2026 16:10:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=771692 Karnataka HC allowed Revenue's writ appeal challenging Single Judge's order that had permitted assessee's writ petition filed in 2022 against 2010 and 2013 orders.
