The petitioner had approached the second respondent challenging Exhibits P1 to P4 assessment orders passed against her. As per Exhibits P7 and P8, the petitioner has been granted an interim order of stay on condition that 25% of the balance tax assessed is paid within a period of two weeks from the date of the said order and security for the balance amount due is furnished. Though the learned counsel for the petitioner contended that the conditions stipulated are onerous and liable to be varied, I am of opinion that the conditions stipulated are only reasonable. Learned counsel for the petitioner then sought for some more time to comply with the conditions in Exhibits P7 and P8. As a matter of indulgence, I feel that the petitioner can be granted some more time. WP(C) No.12403 of 2011 - 2 - In the above circumstances, this Writ Petition is disposed of extending the time for deposit of the balance amount stipulated in Exhibits P7 and P8 orders upto 11.5.2011.
