Taken up for hearing with the consent of the Counsel appearing for the parties. 2. Heard. The applicants have moved this application for de-tagging of Writ Petition No.297/2009 from Writ Petition No.415/09. It is seen that both the writ petitions raise common issues. In Writ Petition No. 415/09, the applicants/petitioners have, inter alia, impugned exemption certificates granted to 10 respondents, including respondent No.5; whereas in Writ Petition No.297/2009, the applicant/petitioners have impugned exemption certificate granted to respondent No.5. 3. In view of the fact that the very same exemption certificates have been impugned in both the writ petitions, and common issues are involved in both the writ petitions, we are of the opinion that no ground is made out for de-tagging of the writ petitions. The application is rejected. SMT. V.K.TAHILRAMANI, J. R. M. SAVANT, J. ssm.
