PER SUCHITRA KAMBLE, JM

            This Extension of Stay Application is filed in respect of total
outstanding demand of Rs.99,75,91,720/-.

2.    The Ld. AR submitted that the original Stay was granted on 24.07.2017
for a period of six months as the assessee has already given bank guarantee of
Rs. 151.59 crore to the Revenue Department under MAP. The Ld. AR submitted
that the appeal is finally heard on 24.10.2018 and order is awaited. The first
extension of Stay was granted on 16.10.2017 and the last extension was
granted on 02.11.2018.






3.       It is evident from the records that the assessee is not responsible for the
delay in disposal of the appeal. The appeal is also heard on 24.10.2018 and the
order is awaited. Therefore, we are of the view that it is a fit case for Extension
of Stay and we are extending the Stay for further period of one months from
today.

4.       In result, Extension of Stay Application of the assessee is allowed.
Order pronounced in the Open Court on           11th January, 2019.
