THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE BILAL NAZKI AND THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO. 18764 OF 2007 Date: 17.09.2007 Between: M/s. Aarihant Marketing, Hanuman Tekdi, Hyderabad. … Petitioner and Commercial Tax Officer, M.J. Market Circle, Hyderabad and another. … Respondents. THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE BILAL NAZKI AND THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO. 18764 OF 2007 ORDER: (per Hon’ble Sri Justice Bilal Nazki) The net controversy in this case is whether multi valves which are used in cylinders fall within Item 27 of the IV Schedule or within the V-Schedule. If they fall within Schedule-IV, the tax attracted would be 4% and if they fall within V Schedule, the tax attracted would be 12.5%. Inquiry is pending for a long time. The goods have been detained in the month of Junr 2007. We would not like to go into the details as to why the matter is still pending before the authorities, but we feel that interests of justice would be met if the petitioner is directed to pay the tax at the rate of 4% before the goods are released to him. Therefore, we direct accordingly. Respondents are at liberty to make the assessment and pass final orders unmindful of this order. Petitioner shall also file objections within ten days to the notice issued to him already by the 2nd respondent. Writ petition is disposed of accordingly. _______________ BILAL NAZKI, J 17-9-2007 ____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J N.B: Order by wire at party’s cost. (b/o) MRKR
