THE HON'BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.18058 OF 2011 Dated: 04.07.2011 Between: Shadan College of Engineering and Technology … Petitioner AND Regional Provident Fund Commissioner, Barakatpura and another … Respondents This Court made the following : THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION No.18058 OF 2011 ORDER: The 2nd respondent by proceedings dated 23.07.2010 passed an order under Section 14-B of the Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 (for short, ‘the Act’) levying damages of Rs.5,66,904/- apart from interest under Section 7-Q of the Act at the rate of 12% per annum amounting to Rs.2,43,251/-. The petitioner made an application dated 07.01.2011 pointing out certain errors in the said order and requesting to rectify the same. According to the petitioner, damages were levied twice and interest was calculated on the payments already made. However, the petitioner’s request was rejected by the 2nd respondent by order dated 30.03.2011/08.04.2011 on the ground that there was no provision for review. Aggrieved by the same, the present writ petition is filed. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as Sri R.N.Reddy, the learned counsel appearing for the respondents. Having regard to the specific case of the petitioner that the order dated 23.07.2010 suffered from clerical mistakes and errors in the calculation, I am of the opinion that the 2nd respondent ought to have considered the petitioner’s request and in case the errors pointed out by the petitioner are found to be mere errors in calculation, a fresh order ought to have been passed rectifying the same. Rejection of the petitioner’s application at the threshold merely on a technical ground that there is no such provision under the statute is unwarranted. Accordingly, the impugned order dated 30.03.2011/08.04.2011 is hereby set aside and the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider the petitioner’s representation dated 07.01.2011 and pass appropriate orders in the light of the above observations as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of four (4) weeks from the date of receipt of this order. Till such time, no coercive steps shall be taken, pursuant to the determination, dated 23.07.2010. No costs. ___________ G.ROHINI, J JULY 04, 2011 Ivd
