WP(C).No.24449 OF 2020(E) 2 JUDGMENT

The petitioner has approached this Court aggrieved by Exts.P7 and P8 assessment orders under the KVAT Act. Although various contentions are raised in the writ petition in its challenge against Exts.P7 and P8 orders, I am of the view that the said orders do not suffer from any juri ictional defects or violation of the rules of natural justice, so as to warrant an interference with the same in these proceedings under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The writ petition in its challenge against the said orders therefore fails and is accordingly dismissed. Taking note of the submission of the learned Senior Counsel for the petitioner that he would require some time to move the appellate authority against Ext.P7 and P8 assessment orders, I direct that the recovery proceedings for the recovery of the amounts confirmed against the petitioner by Exts.P7 and P8 assessment orders shall be kept in abeyance for a period of one month, so as to enable the petitioner to move the appellate authority, in the meanwhile. A.K.JAYASANKARAN NAMBIAR
