% 27.02.2018 Counsel for the respondents states that additional affidavit was filed on 26th February, 2018. With the additional affidavit, the respondents have filed copy of the assessment orders dated 22nd February, 2018 for the third and fourth quarter of 2016-2017.

Counsel for the petitioner seeks liberty to withdraw the present writ petition and states that he will be impugning the said orders, albeit directions may be given to the objection hearing authority for disposal as appeals/objections normally remain undecided for a long time. The writ petition is dismissed as withdrawn with liberty as prayed for.

However, we would observe that objections once preferred, would be

heard and decided by the objection hearing authority within the statutory period as per the Delhi Value Added Tax, 2004. We clarify that we have not commented on merits. SANJIV KHANNA, J.
