2010 (1) TMI 1137 - HC - VAT and Sales TaxNon-submission of the sales tax clearance certificate - the petitioner had pledged the earnest money in favour of the "IGP" instead of "Inspector General of Prisons - Held that:- Non-consideration of the petitioner’s tender on the ground that the earnest money has not been pledged appropriately is not justified and accordingly I find every reason to declare that non-consideration of the petitioner’s tender by the purchase Board on November 17, 2009 was illegal and cannot be sustained in law. Selection of a party to execute a supply work through tender process would normally require selection of the party who has quoted the lowest price and in this case the petitioner’s quotation was lower than respondent No. 4 to whom the work order was issued. Considering the lower quotation of the petitioner, he has a better right in my view to secure the contract in question and under such circumstances the work order granted in favour of respondent No. 4 is declared to be illegal. W.P. allowed.
