C.N. Ramachandran Nair, J.
Heard counsel for the petitioner and the Government Pleader, who took notice and argued the matter at admission stage. After hearing both sides, even though we find force in the contention of the petitioner that addition of 50% is on the higher side, we notice that the party has in the first place settled the entire liability under Amnesty Scheme. Further, the closure of business as claimed by the assessee is not seen proved before the lower authorities and in any case it is not followed by the cancellation of registration. Consequently, we do not find any merit in the S.T. Revision. It is accordingly dismissed.
C.N. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, (JUDGE).
P.S. GOPINATHAN, (JUDGE)
