Kurian Joseph, J.
There is a delay of 79 days in filing the appeal. On merits, it is seen that the extent involved is 2.37 cents and the enhancement is only to the tune of Rs.46,949/-. We do not also find any satisfactory explanation for the delay. Therefore, we dismiss the delay petition as well as the appeal.
KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE.
