O R D E R

Sri K.J.Kamath, the learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri Hema Kumar, learned Additional Government Advocate, who accepts notice for the respondent, are heard.

The petitioner’s grievance relates to the application for refund for the relevant two years of assessment. While the learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner’s application for refund is not processed for over two years, in response on behalf of the authorities, it is stated that Annexures-C and E, which are dated 19.3.2020 and 7.5.2021, have been issued calling upon the petitioner to attend to certain defects. The petitioner has not appeared and therefore, no decision is taken, but if the petitioner were to appear before the

3 respondent on 16.3.2022 and take necessary measures to cure the defects, the application will be decided in accordance with law. In the light of these submissions, the petition is disposed of permitting the petitioner to appear before the respondent on 16.3.2022 and to take necessary measures to address deficiency as pointed out. It is needless to observe that if the petitioner is aggrieved by any decision on the application, the petitioner could always avail appropriate remedy in law. JUDGE
