By an order dated 22.08.2003, the learned single Judge granted interim stay on condition the petitioner paying a sum of Rs.7,00,000/- within four weeks, failing which, the interim order shall stand automatically vacated.

The learned single Judge directed the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner to receive the balance sum of Rs.2,00,000/- in compliance of the order dated 22.08.2003. In the affidavit filed in support of the abovesaid application, it is stated that before filing the writ petition, the petitioner totally paid a sum of Rs.5 lakhs on 19.06.2003, 14.08.2003, 19.08.2003 and 20.08.2003. It is further stated that in order to comply with the said order, the petitioner has to pay a further sum of Rs.2,00,000/-. However, the respondents are of the view that as per the order of this Court dated 22.08.2003, the petitioner has to pay a sum of Rs.7,00,000/- apart from the payment of Rs.5,00,000/- already paid. 3. The learned single Judge, by an order dated 05.12.2003, after finding that the petitioner is liable to pay more than Rs.13 lakhs and noting that he had not complied with the direction issued on 22.08.2003, has dismissed the WPMP No.35918 of 2003, hence the above appeal. 4.

The petitioner/appellant is granted two weeks time from today (26.03.2007) to pay a sum of Rs.2,00,000/- to the credit of the impugned proceedings, failing which, the respondents are free to proceed further. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 5.
