P.R. Raman, J:
This appeal is filed against the judgment dated
06.04.2009, in W.P.(C) No.29487 of 2008. The matter pertains
to classification of educational institutions under LT VII A
commercial tariff. This Court has disposed of the connected
cases, as per common judgment dated 17.08.2009, in W.A.No.
1064 of 2009 and connected cases, in the following lines:
“xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
22. For the various reasons stated as
above, we declare that inclusion of Self
Financing Educational Institutions under LT VII
(A) as a commercial consumer is bad in law in
so far as such differentiation is not for any of
the grounds specified under Section 62(3) of
W.A.No. 2460 OF 2009
2
the Act. Accordingly, we allow all the Writ
Appeals and the Writ Petitions. They will be
treated like falling under Tariff VI until any new
notification is issued in accordance with law”.
In the light of the above judgment, extending the
benefit of the judgment in W.A.No. 1064 of 2009 and connected
cases to the appellant herein, who is similarly placed, this Writ
Appeal is disposed of.
P.R. RAMAN,
JUDGE
P.R. RAMACHANDRA MENON,
JUDGE.
