O R D E R
The petition has been filed against the order dated 05.07.2016, passed in exercise of powers of rectification under Section-69 of the Karnataka Value Added Tax Act, 2003 (KVAT Act 2003) by the Deputy Commissioner of Commercial Taxes (Audit)6.4.
This order was passed in pursuance of the directions given by this Court on 27.06.2016, while disposing of Writ Petition No.33992/2016, directing the said authority to pass a speaking order and the earlier order dated 13.06.2016, passed under Section-69 of the KVAT Act was set-aside.
The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted before the Court that against the impugned rectification order Section–69 of the Act, passed on 05.07.2016, a regular appeal under Section-62 of the KVAT Act, 2003 has already been filed before the learned
Date of Order 28th Nov, 2016 in W.P. Nos.49083 of 2016 & W.P.Nos.51172-96 of 2016 M/s. Pan Parag India Ltd, Vs. The Dy. Commr. Of Income tax & Anr.
4 second respondent – the Joint Commissioner Of Commercial Taxes (Appeals)–VI, and he has already heard the appeal finally on 2.8.2016. But the orders are still awaited. He also sought to assail the merits of the impugned rectification order dated 05.07.2016.
Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to interfere in the impugned order in any manner inasmuch as a regular appeal against the same has been heard by the concerned Appellate Authority – Respondent No.2 and any observations on merits of the case may prejudice the interest of either of the parties, the petitioner-assessee or the respondent-Revenue on the other hand.
Therefore, the writ petitions are disposed of without any observations on the merits, with a sanguine hope that the Appellate Authority – respondent No.2 will release the order in consequence of the hearing of the

5 appeal, which is said to have taken place on 02.08.2016, as expeditiously as possible.
