IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Miscellaneous Jurisdiction Case No.4372 of 2009 Prof. Dr. Ugranath Jha Versus The State Of Bihar & Ors. ---------------------------------- 04. 29.09.2011 Show-cause has been filed on behalf of the University, stating that the claim of the petitioner was examined by the authorities of the University and a sum of Rs. 6,66,566/- was found payable to the petitioner. Out of the total amount, payable to the petitioner, Rs. 81,873/- was deducted as Income Tax at source and the remaining amount of Rs. 5,00,359/- has been paid to the petitioner. As per direction of this Court, in case of deduction of Income Tax at source, the University and its authorities are liable to make payment of interest at the rate of 5 per cent. That has not been paid by the University. However, considering the fact that substantial amount has been paid to the petitioner, this proceeding is being dropped, giving liberty to the petitioner for filing his representation regarding payment of 5 per cent interest on account of deduction of Income Tax at source.
