ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court directed the parties to submit the record of cases involving Directorate General of Intelligence and Investigation and Appellate Tribunal Inland Revenue, and dated hearing in office during recent week.
The IHC Division Bench, comprising of Justice Athar Minallah and Justice Miangul Hassan, heard the matter and issued directives. The bench had earlier relisted the cases including the one filed by M/S Awan CNG Re-Filling Corporation Private Limited.
The company filed cases against the Model Collectorate of Customs.
The bench had also dated in office the hearing on matters filed by DG Intelligence and Investigation against Malik Muhammad Ajmal Khan. M/s Comfort Sales Corporation had filed a case against the ATIR and Customs Department. The M/s Comfort Sales Corporation had challenged the act of recovery of said amount by Commissioner Inland Revenue of Large Taxpayers Uni Islamabad.
The ATIR was also made a respondent in the case as tribunal had upheld departmental decision regarding the issuance of show cause notice and demanded recovery of outstanding tax amount under the head of Federal Excise Duty.
M/s Comfort Sales Corporation had prayed to the court that the FBR office had issued a recovery notice to the company which did not hold lawful grounds.
The appellant had prayed to the court to declare the act as illegal and without any lawful authority and an interim stay may be granted against the recovery proceedings.
The M/s Comfort Sales Corporation had also mentioned that the departmental obligations were not met amid processing the notice of recovery demand while later the adjudication did not redress the grievances of the appellant.
