2018 (11) TMI 1338 - HC - Income TaxRecovery proceedings - stay petition - delay in filing appeal - Held that:- In response to the submissions made by the petitioner's counsel, the Standing Counsel has submitted that the petitioner filed the appeal beyond the date this Court allowed in Ext.P6. He has also submitted that the petitioner merely wants to stay of all further proceedings, but never pressed for disposal of the stay petition as a relief, in this writ petition. I reckon there is a couple of days delay in the petitioner's filing an appeal. That may not be fatal. More particularly, the petitioner asserts that it received the certified copy a little late. At any rate, the petitioner's stay petition has been pending for more than one year. Unless, the appellate authority considers it, the petitioner's very appeal may become a mere ritual.Thus reckon the Tribunal will consider the petitioner's stay application, expeditiously. Until it considers that application, the department shall defer all coercive steps. Because of this arrangement, the garnishee order the department served on the 6th respondent stands vacated.
