2022 (2) TMI 406 - ANDHRA PRADESH HIGH COURTRejection of prayer for grant stay of the remaining outstanding demand - HELD THAT:- The Court finds substance in the submissions of learned counsel for the petitioner. From the urgent notice, it appears that the same has been issued after almost 16 months of the order by which stay was rejected. Since the order of rejection, dated 28.08.2020 is not before the Court, this Court is unable to go into the aspect as to whether the authority has applied its mind and considered the relevant factors before declining to grant stay. However, since the petitioner has already moved before the Tribunal and has paid 50% of the demand, as also the fact that a Coordinate Bench has taken a view with regard to declining grant of stay even though 50% of payment had been made and has granted stay, we are inclined to adopt the same. This writ petition stands disposed of by directing that there shall be interim stay of the remaining 50% of the demanded amount till disposal of the appeal filed by the petitioner before the Tribunal. The Tribunal is also requested to dispose of the appeal at the earliest.
