THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE D.S.R.VARMA CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.3238 of 2009 ORAL ORDER: Heard both sides. This Civil Revision Petition is directed against the order, dated 19.06.2009, passed by the Additional Senior Civil Judge (Fast Track Court), Gudivada, allowing the application in I.A.No.61 of 2009 in O.S.No.205 of 2007, filed under Section 35 of Indian Stamp Act praying to send the agreement of sale, dated 10.03.2006, to the District Collector (District Registrar), Machilipatnam, for impounding to collect the deficit stamp duty payable to the said agreement as Collector. It is settled law that when an application is filed under Section 38 (2) of the Indian Stamp Act seeking the Court to send the documents for impounding, the Court has no option except to send the documents to the competent authority, as held by the Division Bench of this Court (to which I am a party) in CHINTALAPUDI ANNAPURNAMMA vs. ANDUKURI PUNNAYYA SASTRY[1]. In view of the same, I do not find any illegality or irregularity in the impugned order passed by the Court below. In the result, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed, at the stage of admission. However, there shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ JUSTICE D.S.R.VARMA 20th November 2009 dr [1] 2000 (3) ALD 649 (D.B)
