W.P.(C) No.24962 of 2005 .................................................................... Dated this the 26th day of June, 2008. JUDGMENT Since counsel for the petitioner submitted that petitioner is willing to settle liability under the amnesty scheme introduced under Finance Bill 2008, I dispose of the W.P. with direction to the first respondent to accept petitioner's application for amnesty benefit to be filed along with copy of this judgment, give credit for the payments already made and grant eligible amnesty benefit for settlement of balance liability. As and when liability is settled, attachment of the property will be lifted. All other issues raised in the W.P. are left open for the petitioner to approach this court, if there is any grievance after settlement under the amnesty scheme. Issue photocopy today itself.
