11-01-2022 Item No.33 Subrata

IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA

Constitutional Writ Jurisdiction Appellate Side WPA No.21420 of 2021 Germicide House Keeping Agency Pvt. Ltd. & Anr. -vsUnion of India & Ors.

Mr. Pradip Kumar Dutta Mr. Siraj Gooptu ...for the petitioners Mr. Soumitra Mukherjee ...for the State Heard learned advocates for the respective parties. Mr Dutta, learned senior advocate appearing for the petitioners, is fair enough in submitting that the impugned order passed by the GST authority concerned is an appealable one.

Considering the aspect that the alternative remedy by way of appeal is available under the relevant provisions of the statute, I am not inclined to entertain this writ petition which is accordingly dismissed with liberty to the petitioners to file an appeal before the appropriate forum within a fortnight from date.

If such appeal is filed within the time stipulated above, the appellate authority shall take a lenient view in condoning the delay in filing the appeal.

With the above observations, WPA No.21420 of 2021 is dismissed.
