Of course, in a particular case where it is found that the bill is arbitrary, etc., this court may set aside or even direct the Commissioner for granting a hearing and then consider the matter. But, in this case, on going through the details of the bill produced by the second respondent-chartered accountant as exhibit R-2(B) and the volume of work done it cannot be stated that it is arbitrary or reconsideration is necessary.

In such circumstances, no further orders are necessary under article 226 or 227 of the Constitution of India. Therefore, the original petition is dismissed.
