Venkataswami, J. 1. In these two tax references, a common question of law arises, which relates to the same assessee, but for different assessment years, namely, 1969-70 and 1972-73.

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Apr-27-1994

Reported in: 1996(53)ECC49; 1994(74)ELT496(Mad)

K.A. Swami, C.J.1. As the respondent has put in appearance, we have heard both sides for the final disposal of this appeal itself. 2. The appeal is preferred against the order dated 4-2-1994 passed in writ petition 14244 of 1992. Learned single Judge has allowed the writ petition in the following terms :- 'From the above extract in the counter-affidavit, it will be seen that there is no averment to the effect that if the amount is paid now to the petitioner, it will be difficult for the respondents in the event the Department's appeal before the Tribunal is allowed, to recover the same. The Tribunal dismissed the stay application, holding that the lower appellate authority allowed the appeal of the petitioner applying its earlier order. There is no suggestion that against the earlier order, any further action was taken to get the same reversed. However, learned counsel appearing for the Revenue submitted that the Department may be given the right to go into the question of unjust enri...
