Reported in: 2005(1)CHN132

Amitava Lala, J.1. The second appeal arises out of a concurrent finding of facts in a dispute between landlord and tenant. However, appeal was admitted by a Division Bench of this Court on the grounds No. VI, X, XIV, XVI, XVII and XVIII. After admission of the appeal by the Division Bench an application for stay of the Title Execution Case No. 151 of 1986 was proceeded before a Single Judge of this Court and the applicant herein obtained an order of stay for a limited period which was extended from time to time. Today the date is fixed for final hearing of this application on affidavits exchanged by or between the parties herein.2. Mr. S.P.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Jun-14-2004

Reported in: 2004(4)CHN585

D.K. Seth, J.1. In his usual fairness the learned Counsel for the appellant points out that the Scheme under which the relief is asked for has nothing to do with the Sales Tax Authorities. The Scheme is not promulgated under any of the statute, which is covered under section 8 of the West Bengal Taxation Tribunal Act, 1987. The Sales Tax Authorities are the authority only for certifying the correctness of the particulars furnished by the petitioners. The application is to be made before the authorities of the State Government, being the respondent Nos. 2 and 4 who are part of the Finance Department of the Government of West Bengal. They are not discharging any function under the Sales Tax Act while dealing with the Scheme. Therefore, the decision appealed against refusing the relief on the ground of maintainability of the writ petition in view of section 8 of the West Bengal Taxation Tribunal Act, 1987 seems to be not in accordance with law. The learned Counsel had drawn our attention ...
