SC dismisses Revenue’s SLP
in multiple cases citing failure of Revenue to satisfactorily explain
the inordinate delay in filing of petitions; In one case while
dismissing SLP, a bench of Justice A. K. Sikri and Justice Ashok Bhushan remarks
that "There is a delay of 159 days in filing the present petition
which is not satisfactorily explained. Notwithstanding the same, we have
gone into the merits of the case and do not find any substance in the
special leave petition"; Dismissing a SLP involving a sales
issue, the bench of Justice Ranjan Gogoi, Justice R.Bhanumathi and Justice
Navin Sinha quips that “the delay of 448 days in filing the Reference
Application(s) was refused to be condoned by the HC on grounds which we
consider to be good grounds.”; In yet another matter of Shree Cement
Ltd., though SC condones delay, it imposes cost of Rs. 20,000 on Revenue.
