Petitioner is aggrieved by Ext.P1 penalty order and Ext.P5 assessment order. Against Ext.P1, the petitioner filed Ext.P2 appeal and Ext.P3 stay petition before the 3rd respondent. Ext.P5 assessment order is challenged in Ext.P6 appeal and Ext.P7 stay petition before the 3rd respondent. While Exts.P2 and P6 appeals are pending before the 3rd respondent, the 4th respondent initiated revenue recovery proceedings. It is in this context the writ petition has been filed. 2. In the above circumstances, it is deemed fit that the appellate authority, the 3rd respondent, be directed to dispose of Exts.P3 and P7 stay applications within a period of one month from today. It is also directed that in WP(C).14718/14 2 the meanwhile, coercive steps pursuant to Ext.P1 and P5 shall be kept in abeyance until such orders are passed, which orders shall determine the matter thereafter.
Writ petition disposed of.
