The petitioner has challenged the final order of assessment made in the name of a deceased person who was the father of the petitioner.

As the petitioner had filed the writ petition within time, the question of delay would not arise. The petitioner will approach the appellate authority within a period of 10 days from date. As no affidavits have been called for, the allegations against the petitioner are deemed to be denied.

3. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of.

4. All the parties are directed to act on the basis of the server copy of the order.
