Under Sub-rule (3), the plaintiff is entitled to file a written statement to the counter claim. Order XXXIII Rul...

The appeal was presented on the last day of limitation and, along with the appeal, the assessee enclosed a cheque for an amount of Rs. 770, which admittedly covered all the arrears of admitted tax outstanding against the assessee. The cheque was presented at the bank but was dishonoured.
