J U D G M E N T The petitioner obtained Ext.P1 judgment from this Court for consideration of his application for stay in an appeal under the Income-tax Act. Pursuant thereto, Ext.P2 order has been passed granting stay on condition that the petitioner pays Rs. 20 lakhs on or before 15.10.2011. The petitioner has submitted Ext.P3 application for extension of time. But since the 2nd respondent is not in station, he is unable to get the matter considered by the 2nd respondent. It is under the above circumstances, the petitioner has filed this writ petition seeking extension of time to comply with the condition in Ext.P2 order. 2. I have heard the learned standing counsel for the Income-tax Department also. Having heard both sides, I dispose of this writ petition granting the petitioner time till 30.10.2011 to comply with Ext.P2 order. Sd/- S. Siri Jagan, Judge. Tds/
