ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) dated in office the hearing of customs matters involving M/s Pakistan Telecom Mobile Limited (PTML) and the Federal Board of Revenues (FBR) field offices.
The appellant had challenged the act of recovery by Commissioner Inland Revenue of Large Taxpayer’s Unit, Islamabad. Justice Aamer Farooq had earlier directed the parties to submit record of the cases.
In recent week, the bench had reserved decision of the case of M/s Hasas Engineering and Construction Company (Private) Limited after hearing the arguments in the case with submission of the record.
ATIR was also made respondent in the case as the tribunal had sustained departmental decision regarding issuance of show cause notice and demand of recovery of outstanding tax amount in head of federal excise duty.
The appellant had prayed the court to declare the act as illegal and without any lawful authority and an interim stay may be granted against recovery proceedings.
M/s Hasas Engineering and Construction Company Private Limited had also mentioned that departmental obligations were not met amid processing the notice of recovery demand while later the adjudication did not address grievances of the appellant.
