This writ petition coming on for preliminary hearing in B-Group, this day the Court made the following:-
O R D E R
Petitioner has sought quashing the order dated 19.10.2012 vide Annexure-E, passed on I.A.No.8 filed by the petitioner herein before the Court below under Order XVI Rules 1 and 6 of CPC, in M.C.No.2592/2007 c/w. 357/2009.
The records reveal that during the pendency of the matter before the Court below, the petitioner herein prayed for a direction to the respondent herein to produce income tax returns relating to the respondent and to summon the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle-I, Gulbarga for production.
Learned counsel for the respondent submits that the respondent is prepared to produce photostat

copies of income tax returns; since the photostat copies of income tax returns are already on record, there is no need to furnish income tax returns once again.
Smt.Pramila Nesargi, learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that photostat copies cannot be relied upon and therefore, the income tax returns as prayed for in the application be produced.
In order to avoid any controversy in the matter, this Court proposes to direct the respondent to provide income tax returns as prayed which are duly notarized, to the petitioner or to the counsel appearing for the petitioner before the Court below. By such procedure, no prejudice will be caused to any other parties, inasmuch as the respondent himself is admitting that income tax returns produced by him are true and correct.

With the aforesaid observations, writ petition stands disposed of.
