HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No.22052 OF 2011 ORDER: This writ petition is filed questioning the proceedings dated 18.05.2011 issued by the Enforcement Officer of the Employees Provident Fund Organisation, Regional Office, Barkatpura, Hyderabad. 2. The grievance of the petitioner is that, without making an assessment as is in terms of Section 7(A) of The Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Fund Act, 1952, the Enforcement Officer has proceeded to make an assessment and then raised a demand. 3. Sri R.N. Reddy, learned standing counsel for the EPF Organisation, upon receipt of instructions, has submitted that the impugned notice dated 18.05.2011 issued by the Enforcement Officer working in the office of the Assistant Provident Fund Commissioner is only a show cause notice providing an opportunity to the writ petitioner to participate in the process of assessment. It has been assured by the learned standing counsel that the procedure contemplated, for finalization of the assessment order, will be faithfully complied with by the respondents and without doing so, no cohersive measures will be taken for recovering the amounts from the petitioner. 4. In view of this, no further orders be passed in this writ petition except to direct the respondents to follow the procedure prescribed and make proper assessment of the dues payable to the petitioner by providing him a fair and reasonable opportunity to participate in the assessment. 5. The writ petition stands disposed of with this order. No costs. ___________________________________ Justice Nooty Ramamohana Rao 17-08-2011 SP HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No.22052 OF 2011 17-08-2011 SP
