J U D G M E N T
Petitioner challenges the revenue recovery proceedings initiated by the Kerala
State Financial Enterprises Ltd. for recovery of the amount alleged to be due from the
petitioner who is a subscriber in number of chitties conducted by them. When he
defaulted the repayment and amounts fell in arrears, revenue recovery proceedings
were initiated by the K.S.F.E. Ltd. and disputing the correctness of the amount
demanded, this writ petition is filed.
2. As of now, materials on record are not sufficient for adjudicating the disputed
question of fact and to quantify the amount. However, it is submitted that there is a
one time settlement scheme now offered up to 31.5.2008. Since the matter was
pending before this court and the writ petition came up for hearing only today, time for
availing the benefit of one time settlement facility in the case of the petitioner is
extended up to 15.6.2008. If the petitioner makes remittance of Rs. 25,000/- (Rupees
twenty five thousand only) and files a representation seeking the benefit of one time
settlement scheme, such benefits may be extended to him in accordance with law. In
case no such payment and representation are made on or before 15.6.2008, petitioner
will not be entitled to the benefit of this judgment. Revenue recovery proceedings taken
WP(C) 15209/2006 :2:
against the petitioner will, therefore, stand deferred and if only there is
default in making the payment as stated above, that Revenue Recovery
Proceedings be continued.
The writ petition is disposed of as above.
P.R. RAMAN,
(JUDGE)
