Respondent THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No. 3920 of 2010 O R D E R: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent. In this Writ Petition, the grievance of the petitioners is that the application dated 10.12.2009 submitted by them to the respondent Corporation seeking grant of trade licence for running an authorized service center of automobiles at premises bearing Door NO. 40-2-27, Raghuram Street, Moghalarajpuram, Vijayawada, has not been considered so far. On instructions, Smt. Jhansi, learned Standing Counsel for Vijayawada Municipal Corporation submits that the petitioners’ application has not been considered for want of certain documents to be accompanied by it, as required under the 1955 Act. On the other hand, the learned counsel for the petitioners submits that in the process of granting trade licence, if any objections are there, the petitioners are ready and willing to comply with the same. Inasmuch as the application of the petitioners is pending consideration, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondent to consider and dispose of the application of the petitioners, dated 10.12.2009 as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. It is however, made clear that such consideration of the application for grant of licence shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Municipal Corporation Act, 1955, the Rules and the byelaws made thereunder and on complying with the required conditions for grant of trade licence. Subject to the above directions, the Writ Petition is disposed of at the stage of admission. No costs. ---------------------------- (R.
