S. 260A : Appeal-High Court-Delay of 545 days-Administrative exigency-Delay was condoned.

Revenue  filed an application  seeking condonation of delay of 545 days in filing appeal within period of limitation. High court observed that despite delay, there still appeared to have been certain administrative exigency on account of which revenue could not process papers on record and also since there were a bunch of cases involved in this matter, there would have been a situation where voluminous documents had to be perused before appeal was settled. Accordingly  petition for condonation of delay was allowed.
