According to the learned counsel for the petitioner, the petitioner is entitled for refund of the amount along with interest and the respondent has not allowed the payment of interest on the amount ordered for refund. 3. I am of the view that this writ petition can be closed reserving liberty to the petitioner to claim interest for the amount ordered to be refunded. Therefore, this writ petition is closed making it clear that it will be open to the petitioner to file appropriate WPC No.34415/10 :-2-: application before the authority claiming interest due on the amount refunded. If any such application is received by the respondent, the same shall be considered and appropriate decision shall be taken without any further delay, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of such application.
