The petitioner submits that tax was being accepted from 2006 to 2019 and there was failure to pay tax because the petitioner was not in Kerala. It is further stated that when tax was sought to be paid in 2024, the same was not accepted without attributing any reason. The petitioner has preferred Ext.P3 application before the 3rd respondent seeking acceptance of tax. In the above circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of directing the 3rd respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P3, after hearing the petitioner, at the earliest, at any rate within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
