Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W.P(C) No. 10241 of 2010 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 3rd day of October, 2011. J U D G M E N T The petitioner was a guarantor for certain amounts due under a loan from his father-in-law to the 1st respondent. revenue recovery proceedings are now initiated for recovery of those amounts. The petitioner now submits that the petitioner may be given an opportunity to pay the amounts due in instalments. This is opposed by the counsel for respondents 1 and 2. However, taking a lenient view, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to permit the petitioner to pay off the amounts due in 10 equal monthly instalments starting from 1.11.2011. Every subsequent instalment shall be paid on the first working day of every succeeding month. If the petitioner pays the instalment amounts on due dates without default, proceedings under the Act shall be kept in abeyance. However, if the petitioner commits default in payment of any one instalment, it would be open to the respondents to continue proceedings as now initiated without having to issue any fresh notice or proceedings in that regard.
