1. This is a motion for condoning 787 days delay in
filing of the main appeal. A perusal of the
affidavit-in-support indicates that on 2.3.2005 the
file was sent to ministry of law for drafting of
appeal memo but the draft was ultimately prepared on
18.12.2006. In our view, the period of more than 1
year & 8 months for drafting appeal memo cannot be said to be reasonable. Hence, cause shown does not amount to sufficient cause. Hence motion dismissed.
INCOME TAX APPEAL (L) NO.657 OF 2007
. As the motion for condoning delay is dismissed,
appeal also stands dismissed.
