BY GP SRI.P.N.SANTHOSH THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 20/10/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: V.GIRI, J ------------------- W.P.(C).28891/2008 -------------------- Dated this the 20th day of October, 2008 JUDGMENT The grievance of the petitioner is one related to the alleged disinclination on the part of the third respondent for accepting the land tax in relation to a property which, he claims, is owned by him. According to the petitioner, reluctance is only because the properties are under attachment under orders of Civil Court. Remittance of basic tax is not conclusive proof of title of the person who remits the tax. Tax is remitted only for Fiscal purpose. In the circumstances, if the property is found to be standing in the name of the petitioner, then there is no reason why the third respondent should not accept the basic tax in relation to the same. If there is an attachment under orders of Civil Court, existence of the attachment shall also be endorsed in the Basic Tax Register as also in the receipt issued in that behalf made by the third respondent. Subject to the above, writ petition is disposed of. V.GIRI, Judge mrcs
