PER N. K. BILLAIYA, AM:


     With this stay petition, the assessee has requested to stay the
demand arising from the assessment order framed u/s 143 (3) of the
Act for A. Y. 2015-16. The assessee prayed for the stay of demand
arising out of the said assessment order.
                                   2


2.    Representatives of both the sides were heard. Case records
carefully perused. We find that out of the total demand of Rs. 40.98
crores the assessee has already paid of Rs. 8.19 crores which is about
20% of the total demand. We also find that the bank account
No.7311364982 with Kotak Mahindra Bank has also been freezed.







3.    Since the business operation of the assessee has come to a
standstill it would be in the interest of both the sides that the said
bank account be released immediately.


4.    On perusal of the underlying facts in the issues we are of the
opinion that the balance of convenience is in favour of the assessee.
In the interest of justice and fair play we direct the assessee to pay a
sum of Rs. 2 crore in installment. The assessee is directed to pay
installment of Rs.50 lacs per month each on or before 31.01.2019,
28.02.2019, 31.03.2019 and 30.04.2019 subject to the payment of
the demand as mentioned here in the balance demand is stayed for a
period of 180 days or till the disposal of the appeal whichever is
earlier.


5.    We direct the registry to post the appeal for hearing on
18.03.2019. The assessee is directed to file paper book as per the
rules and shall not take any adjournment without any justifiable
cause otherwise the stay will get vacated.







6.    With the above directions the stay petition is allowed.


7.    In the result, the stay application filed by the assessee is
allowed.
