J U D G M E N T
The petitioner is a registered dealer. He has approached this Court on account of non-issuance of delivery note book. 2.
It is submitted by the learned Government Pleader that, based on the assessment for the year 2009-2010, an amount of 13,00,000/- due from the petitioner. Therefore, the ₹ petitioner being a defaulter he cannot be issued with delivery note.
3.
Petitioner submits that he has already approached the Tribunal and the matter is pending. The petitioner is running a business and there is no provision as such to withhold the delivery note book. The respondents are free to proceed against the petitioner for recovery of the amount due. With that liberty there shall be a direction to the respondent to issue delivery note book to the petitioner, forthwith. If the delivery note has to be issued by online, the respondent shall also make facility to obtain through online.
This writ petition is disposed of.
Sd/- A. MUHAMED MUSTAQUE, JUDGE.
