The petitioner does not dispute the liability to pay or the quantum. The petitioner only seeks facility to pay off the amount in instalments. 2. This is opposed by the learned counsel for 1st respondent. 3. Having heard both sides, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 1st respondent to permit the petitioner to pay off the balance amount due in 10 (ten) equal monthly instalments starting from 01.12.2011. Every subsequent instalment shall be paid on the first working day of every succeeding month. If the petitioner pays the instalments on due dates without default, further W.P.(C)No.29903 of 2011 -2- proceedings under the Act shall be kept in abeyance. However, if the petitioner commits default in payment of any one of the instalments, it would be open to the respondents to continue proceedings as now initiated without having to issue any fresh notice or proceedings in that regard.
