STATE BUSINESS LEADERSHIP AWARDS & SUMMIT – 2023
Due to the absence of a GST Appellate Tribunal in the state, the Orissa High Court took an uncommon action and suspended a private company’s tax claim. When hearing the matter of Nilamadhaba Enterprises v. CT (commercial tax) & GST Officer, Cuttack, the High Court recently gave the order. An appeal order issued by the Joint Commissioner of State Tax, Jajpur Range, Jajpur district, was challenged in court by a private enterprise.
The petitioner filed an appeal with the court arguing that even while a second appeal is valid and the second appellate tribunal has not yet been established, he is not responsible for paying the tax and penalty. According to the argument, the petitioner has already paid 10% of the sought tax amount to the first appellate authority. Since there is no second appellate forum, the firm moved to the HC in search of relief. According to the GST officer, who was represented by standing counsel Sunil, the petitioner must pay the remaining 20% of the disputed tax in order for the 2nd Appellate Tribunal to examine its appeal.
The court weighed the arguments of both sides and said, “Since the petitioner wants to avail the remedy under the provisions of law by approaching 2nd appellate tribunal, which has not yet been constituted, as an interim measure subject to the petitioner depositing entire tax demand within a period of 15 days from today, the rest of the demand shall remain stayed during the pendency of the writ petition.”

10 Years in positive journalism, and counting…..
One decade of carrying positive journalism is no less than providing a service to the nation. As a result, the fear of losing the respect of the readers is what prevents us not to be stopping any publications related to those inspiring personalities on a regular basis in order to attain inspiration. We believe that we have espoused the cause of positive and developmental journalism with utmost honesty and rigour. Unfazed by the competing media platforms who are obsessed with the TRP game and have no qualms in compromising time-honoured media ethics, we can safely claim we are out of this mad race for recognition. Rather, we chose the path less trodden. And, that has positioned The Interview Times where you find it today. We chose to play up the stories of those personalities who climbed the success ladder by the dint of their grit and gumption. These were the stories which escaped the wide lens of the big media. That is the narrative which you and I find relatable. And, we count on your support and patronage to keep this tradition running.
Once again, I would like to state that the entire family of Interview Times Media Network is firmly committed to positive journalism in pursuit of making a better society in the days to come. Journalism is a passion for us, not a profession. Let’s celebrate.
In this traumatic pandemic, a thank you note is incomplete without saluting the departed as well as those who lost their loved ones while pursuing journalism selflessly. Hope better days are in the offing with light and rays.
It is therefore asked all of your’s noble donations to sustain the importance of pursuing positive journalism round the year.Lets value it sacredly.
