Case Law Details
Sales Tax Bar Association Vs Union of India (Delhi High Court)
Delhi High Court directed to commence construction of Chamber Block of Sales Tax Bar Association being delayed for the last more than 15 years.
Facts- The present is an unfortunate case of the building of chamber block near the Department of Trade and Taxes, Vyapar Bhawan, I.P Estate, New Delhi (“Chamber block”) for the Sales Tax Bar Association being delayed for the last more than 15 years.
Conclusion- This Court is unable to comprehend as to why there is a delay of more than 11 years even in commencing the construction. The Authorities within the Delhi Government have rejected the plan. In a matter of this nature, there needs to be better coordination as the Chamber block construction is in the larger interest of the legal community.
If there are any corrections or there are any changes to be made in the building plan, the same shall be informed to the PWD who shall carry out the said corrections. The Chief Engineer PWD shall be responsible to get the plan approved by 15th July 2023.
