“ Mr. Thakar states that in a very similar matter, this Court by order dated 3 September 2012 in Writ Petition No. 2998 of 2003 Voltas Ltd. and Anr. Vs. Commissioner of Sales Tax, Dadra & Nagar Haveli, Silvassa and Ors., relying on Prism Cement Ltd. & Anr. Vs. State of Maharashtra and Ors. in Writ Petition No. 6475 o 2009 decided on 30 August, 2012, had quashed and set aside the circulars which were impugned in that Petition. Mr. Venegaonkar states that, the order of this Court dated 3 September 2012 is impugned in the Apex Court by SLP No. 7236 of 2014, which is still pending. Mr. Venegaonkar states, in fairness, there is no stay. In the circumstances, this Petition is also disposed of in view of order dated 3 September 2012 mentioned earlier. The impugned order dated 11 December 2018 passed by Respondent No.2 also is quashed and set aside.

Mr. Venegaonkar states that Respondent will be filing another SLP challenging this order. We cannot make any comment on that.”
