Sanka Agencies Vs. Commissioner of Commercial Taxes

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Sep-29-2004

Reported in: [2005]142STC496(AP)

Bilal Nazki, J.1. Order dated May 17, 1996 passed in the revisions, by the Commissioner of Commercial Taxes, Hyderabad, has been challenged by way of these special appeals.2. One of the grounds agitated to strike down the impugned order is that though the order is shown to have been passed on May 17, 1996, it was actually passed some time after May 17, 1996. Admittedly May 17, 1996 was the last date in view of the law of limitation, when the order could have been passed by the revisional authority. In this connection, the appellants submit that though the order is purported to have been passed on May 17, 1996, it was received by the appellants on November 14, 1996 and it has been despatched on November 1, 1996.3. We have seen the record. Record also shows that while the impugned order bears the date May 17, 1996, the order was sent to the appellants by despatching it only on November 1, 1996. There is no explanation in the record nor any explanation has been given by the respondent, as...
