No. 14611 of 2010, the matter was taken up and finally<\/p>\n<p>heard today; including on the relief sought for in the I.A..<\/p>\n<p>      2.   The sequence of events as narrated in the Writ Petition shows<\/p>\n<p>that the petitioners are aggrieved of the steps pursued by the respondents<\/p>\n<p>for realization of the income tax arrears of M\/s Ocean Fisheries and late<\/p>\n<p>K.J. Columbus for the assessment years 1974 -&#8217;75 to 1978 &#8211; &#8217;79, 1980 &#8211; &#8217;81<\/p>\n<p>and 1982 &#8211; &#8217;83 and also in respect of interest under Section 220 (2) of the<\/p>\n<p>said Act. The first petitioner was a partner of firm M\/s Ocean Fisheries and<\/p>\n<p>his deceased father K.J. Columbus was the managing partner of the firm.<\/p>\n<p>There was also another partner by name Joseph Joppan. In the course of<\/p>\n<p>the steps taken by the department for realization of the amount stated as<\/p>\n<p>due, the petitioners were served with a notice dated 06.01.2009, when they<\/p>\n<p>approached this Court by filing W.P.(C) No. 3319 of 2009, challenging the<\/p>\n<p>same.    After considering the merits involved, the said Writ Petition was<\/p>\n<p>dismissed on 30.02.2009, however holding that the said judgment would<\/p>\n<p>W.P. (C) No. 17897 of 2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                       2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>not stand in the way of the authorities concerned, to take a decision on the<\/p>\n<p>representation dated 06.10.2008 preferred by the petitioner under Section<\/p>\n<p>119 of the I.T. Act ( Ext. P5 therein, which is marked as Ext. P3 in the<\/p>\n<p>present Writ Petition). Against the said verdict, Writ Appeal No. 275 of<\/p>\n<p>2009 was preferred by the petitioners, wherein an interim order was<\/p>\n<p>passed as borne by Ext. P2, directing the petitioners to satisfy a portion of<\/p>\n<p>the liability as specified therein to have the representation considered. The<\/p>\n<p>said Writ Appeal was finally disposed of as per judgment dated<\/p>\n<p>30.03.2009, directing the Commissioner, Income Tax, Kochi to consider<\/p>\n<p>and dispose of the petition for reconciliation dated 14.09.2009 preferred by<\/p>\n<p>the petitioners\/appellants within two months as specified.<\/p>\n<p>       3. The petitioners were being repeatedly required by the concerned<\/p>\n<p>authorities to satisfy the amounts, as ordered by this Court earlier.     The<\/p>\n<p>correctness and sustainability of the figures mentioned were sought to be<\/p>\n<p>challenged by filing various representations and several communications<\/p>\n<p>followed in between. The main grievance projected by the petitioners was<\/p>\n<p>that, the petitioners were earlier given the benefit of &#8216;waiver&#8217; of interest to<\/p>\n<p>an extent of 60 % as ordered by the 3rd respondent as early as in the year<\/p>\n<p>2002, which was subsequently sought to be denied, when the proceedings<\/p>\n<p>were finalized thereafter. In was in the said circumstances that the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners preferred yet another petition before the concerned authorities,<\/p>\n<p>W.P. (C) No. 17897 of 2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                     3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>which culminated in denying the benefit of waiver by Ext. P9 dated<\/p>\n<p>09.06.2009. The petitioners pursued the matter further and the position<\/p>\n<p>was let known to them by the first respondent as per Ext. P10<\/p>\n<p>communication dated 17.06.2009.         It is contended that, some other<\/p>\n<p>grievances were also projected from the part of the petitioners on the date<\/p>\n<p>of hearing and that Ext. P10 order was passed on 17.06.2009, without<\/p>\n<p>properly appreciating the facts projected in the Ext. P11 representation. It<\/p>\n<p>is also stated that, since the matter has not been effectively dealt with by<\/p>\n<p>the first respondent while passing Ext. P10, the grievance of the petitioners<\/p>\n<p>has been projected again by filing Ext. P12, which is stated as pending<\/p>\n<p>before the 3rd respondent. It is in the meanwhile, that further proceedings<\/p>\n<p>were taken, notifying the sale of the property as per Ext. P1, which hence<\/p>\n<p>was sought to be intercepted by filing the above Writ Petition.<\/p>\n<p>       4. When the matter was came up for consideration before this Court<\/p>\n<p>on 26.06.2009, the sale was permitted to be proceeded with, however<\/p>\n<p>making it clear that &#8216;confirmation of sale&#8217; shall be subject to further orders<\/p>\n<p>to be obtained from this Court. It is brought to the notice of this Court that,<\/p>\n<p>since there were no bidders, the department itself bid the property for a Rs.<\/p>\n<p>95.71 lakhs. The respondents have filed a statement asserting the facts<\/p>\n<p>and figures with reference to the sequence of events, contending that the<\/p>\n<p>attempt being made from the part of the petitioners is only to protract the<\/p>\n<p>W.P. (C) No. 17897 of 2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                        4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>proceedings and there is absolutely no merit or bonafides in the Writ<\/p>\n<p>Petition.\n<\/p>\n<p>       5. The petitioners have filed reply affidavit, followed by a rejointer<\/p>\n<p>filed by the 4th respondent, producing copies of the relevant documents.<\/p>\n<p>       6.   The learned standing counsel appearing for the respondents<\/p>\n<p>submits, with reference to the prayers contained (seeking for a direction to<\/p>\n<p>dispose of Exts. P11 and P2) that Ext. P11 representation has already<\/p>\n<p>been considered ,passing Ext. R4 (d) order dated 26.06.2009 and that only<\/p>\n<p>Ext. P12 is pending consideration before the 3rd respondent.<\/p>\n<p>       7. Going by the contents of the reply affidavit filed by the petitioners,<\/p>\n<p>several new averments have been raised therein, particularly as to the<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;limitation&#8217; and such other aspects; which do not find a place in the Writ<\/p>\n<p>Petition. As such, this Court does not propose to go into the merits of the<\/p>\n<p>said contentions in the reply affidavit, when the pleadings and prayers in<\/p>\n<p>the Writ Petition stand unamended, but for examining the merits of the Writ<\/p>\n<p>Petition as it stands.\n<\/p>\n<p>       8. With regard to the contents of the I.A. now filed by the petitioners<\/p>\n<p>(I.A. No. 14841 of 2010), Mr. Raju Joseph, the learned senior counsel<\/p>\n<p>appearing for the petitioners submits that the petitioners are ready and<\/p>\n<p>willing to satisfy the entire liability for the time being, subject to the final<\/p>\n<p>outcome of the relevant proceedings and seek for a direction to reconvey<\/p>\n<p>W.P. (C) No. 17897 of 2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                     5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the property to the petitioners.\n<\/p>\n<p>       9. The respondents have filed a &#8216;statement&#8217; dated 21.10.10 in the<\/p>\n<p>said I.A., stating that the property happened to be bid in favour of the<\/p>\n<p>department on 30.06.09 for Rs. 95.70 lakhs, subject to the interim order<\/p>\n<p>dated 26.06.2009 passed by this Court with regard to the sale. Taking note<\/p>\n<p>of the fact that the sale was permitted to be proceeded, subject to further<\/p>\n<p>orders with regard to the confirmation of sale, as made clear in the interim<\/p>\n<p>order dated 26.06.2010, the petitioners have come forward stating that they<\/p>\n<p>are ready to discharge the entire liability as on date, subject to final<\/p>\n<p>outcome. On considering the grievance projected from the part of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners, this Court finds that the sale effected on 30.06.2009 could be<\/p>\n<p>set aside on clearing the entire liability to the department as on date and<\/p>\n<p>satisfaction of the liability as above could be subject to the final orders to<\/p>\n<p>be passed by the third respondent in Ext. P12, which is stated as pending<\/p>\n<p>before the said respondent.\n<\/p>\n<p>       10. In the above facts and circumstances, the 4th respondent is<\/p>\n<p>directed to intimate the petitioners as to the actual liability due from the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners as on date, within &#8216;one week&#8217; from today, on which event, it will<\/p>\n<p>be open for the petitioners to satisfy the said liability, subject to the orders<\/p>\n<p>to be passed by the 3rd respondent in Ext. P12. On satisfying the liability as<\/p>\n<p>above, the property shall released and reconveyed to the petitioners<\/p>\n<p>W.P. (C) No. 17897 of 2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                       6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>forthwith at their cost and it will be open for the petitioners to deal with the<\/p>\n<p>properties free from any encumbrances to the Department.<\/p>\n<p>       11. The third respondent is directed to consider Ext. P12 and pass<\/p>\n<p>final orders thereon, in accordance with law, after giving an opportunity of<\/p>\n<p>hearing to the petitioners, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within<\/p>\n<p>three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The<\/p>\n<p>petitioners shall produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of Ext.<\/p>\n<p>P12 before the third respondent for further steps in this regard.<\/p>\n<p>       I.A. No. 14611 of 2010<\/p>\n<p>       In view of the finalization of the Writ Petition as above, no separate<\/p>\n<p>orders are necessary in the I.A. Hence it is closed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                     P. R.
