Shiv Bhagwan Gupta v. ACIT (Pat ) (Trib) www.itatonline.orgConstitution of India
Art .32 : Remedies for enforcement of rights conferred by this part – COVID -19 -Waiver of interest – Economic and fiscal regulatory measures are a field where Judges should encroach upon very warily as Judges are not experts in these matters. In assessing the propriety of the decision of the Government the court cannot interfere even if a second view is possible from that of the government. Legality of the policy, and not the wisdom or soundness of the policy, is the subject of judicial review.
