On writ, the court held that once the order attained its finality on factual aspects at the level of the Tribunal and the amount was paid as per the order passed by the Tribunal, no further recovery could be initiated and thus, the concerned Authority was bound to lift the attachment order. The Tax Recovery Officer was directed to lift the attachment order and communicate the same to the Sub-Registrar and thereafter, the Sub-Registrar was directed to remove appropriate encumbrances in the concerned encumbrance certificate immediately upon receipt of such communication from the Tax Recovery Officer.(AY. 2011-12 to 2017-18)(SJ)
