When the matter is taken up, learned Government Pleader has placed before this court relevant records showing that the dealership of the petitioner with regard to Gajwel, Medak District, was valid only upto 1997 and no application is made by the petitioner for renewal, enclosing the necessary material, and if the petitioner wants to make an application for grant of licence, he can do so by submitting the required documents. As per the provisions of Andhra Pradesh Petroleum Products (Licence and Regulation of Supplies) Order, 1980, an application for renewal is to be filed before the end of the year or within one month thereafter. As much as the petitioner, whose dealership had expired in the year 1997 itself, has not submitted any application for renewal thereafter, enclosing the required documents, no direction, as sought, can be issued. However, if the petitioner is desirous of making an application for grant of licence, it would be open to him to do so, enclosing the necessary documents. If any such application is made by him, respondents shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders under the provisions of Andhra Pradesh Petroleum Products (Licence and Regulation of Supplies) Order, 1980. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________________ R. SUBHASH REDDY, J February 22, 2010 MRR
