1. Heard the learned Counsel for the parties. By
this Notice of Motion the Appellant is seeking
condonation of 481 days delay caused in filing the
Appeal. Perused the affidavit in support of the Notice
of Motion. We are not satisfied with the reasons given
for condonation of delay. No sufficient cause is made
out for condonation of delay. As stated in the
affidavit, it appears that the last date for filing the
Appeal was 20.4.2006, however it came to be filed on
14.8.2007. It is stated that the draft memo of Appeal
was ready on 20.4.2006 however it came to be filed on
14.8.2007 for almost one year and four months later.
The reasons given for delay that there was a shortage of
stamps etc. does not appear to be justifiable. We are
not at all convinced by the reasons given in the
affidavit in support of the Notice of Motion. Hence,
the Notice of Motion stands dismissed.
2. In view of dismissal of the Notice of Motion, the
Income Tax Appeal (L) No.1867/2007 also stands
dismissed.
