SPECIAL DEPUTY TAHSILDAR, REVENUE RECOVERY, K.S.F.E LTD, KOTTAYAM. BY ADV. SRI.T.NAVEEN, SC, K.S.F.E. LTD. FOR R1 TO 3 THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 26/06/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = W.P.(C) No. 17603 OF 2008 - U = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 26th June 2008 J U D G M E N T Petitioner complains of the quantification of his liability as indicated in Ext.P4. It is contended that even in Ext.P5 Revenue Recovery Notices the amount shown is much less than what was shown in Ext.P4. However, the fact remains that interest with effect from 7.1.2003 is to be added to the figure shown in Ext.P5 and that explains the disparity in the figures. 2. Now it is pointed out by the learned counsel for the 1st respondent that they have come out with an OTS Scheme the period of which is expiring on 30.06.2008 and that despite the default committed by the petitioner in complying with the requirement of Ext.P4 if the petitioner is desirous of availing of this facility he can make use of that opportunity for settling his liability. 3. However, the counsel for the petitioner submits that since time left is only two more days, he may be given a month's time to W.P.(C) No.17603 OF 2008(U) =: 2 := avail of the benefit of the OTS Scheme. 4. Having regard to the fact of the pendency of this writ petition and that the scheme has been disclosed to the petitioner only now I direct that it will be open to the petitioner to apply for the benefit of the OTS Scheme before 30.06.2008 and if it is accepted, he will be granted to me till 15.07.2008 and for making payment. Subject to the above, writ petition is disposed of. Needless to say that in case default is committed by the petitioner it will be open to the respondent to continue Revenue Recovery proceedings.
