WP(C).No.6418 OF 2021(B) 2 JUDGMENT Dated this the 12th day of March 2021 Heard both sides, as the learned Government Pleader is taking notice for all the respondents,
The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner had availed benefit under the Amnesty scheme for the assessment year 2013-2014. However, he could not apply for amnesty scheme so far as the assessment year 2009-2010 is concerned, because the amount found due and payable under the Assessment order at Ext.P6 is not appearing on the website of the respondent and as such, the petitioner cannot claim benefit of the amnesty scheme which is only upto 31.03.2021. With this, the learned counsel for the petitioner drew my attention to the representation at Ext.P8 filed by the petitioner and allegedly pending before the 3rd respondent.
The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that grievance of the petitioner can be redressed if the representation at Ext.P8 is directed to be decided forthwith.
The learned Government Pleader submits that the representation at Ext.P8 can be decided within a period of one week from today. In this view of the matter, the petition is disposed of with a direction to the 3rd respondent to decide the representation of the
WP(C).No.6418 OF 2021(B) 3 petitioner at Ext.P8 within a period of one week from today. The learned Government Pleader is requested to intimate this judgment to the 3rd respondent today itself. The petitioner is further directed to supply one more copy of the representation at Ext.P8 to the 3rd respondent for taking action according to law. The petition is accordingly disposed of.
