2015 (11) TMI 1633 - HC - VAT and Sales TaxMaintainability of petition - validity of assessment order - violation of principles of natural justice - Held that: - there is no dispute that as against the order of assessment, there is an appeal remedy available to the petitioner before the appellate authority. When such an alternative remedy of appeal provided under the statute is available against the impugned assessment order, this Court cannot interfere with such assessment order by entertaining this Writ Petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, as it is well settled that in such kind of matters, the party should exhaust all the available alternative remedies before resorting to file a Writ Petition before this Court. Reliance placed in the decision of the case of M/s. Sesa Sterlite Ltd. Versus The Union of India and others [2015 (2) TMI 429 - MADRAS HIGH COURT], where it was held that writ is not proper remedy, when the alternative remedy by way of filing an appeal is available to the petitioner therein. Petition dismissed only on the ground that there is an effective alternative remedy of appeal is available to the petitioner - decided against petitioner.
