K.C.U.Raja vs The Commissioner on 20 May, 2022

In Magadh Sugar and Energy Limited v. State of Bihar [2021 (5) KLT 667 (SC)], a decision relied on by the learned Senior Counsel for the petitioner, a Three-Judge Bench of the Apex Court reiterated that, while the High Court would normally not exercise its writ jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution if an effective and efficacious alternate remedy is available, the existence of an alternate remedy does not by itself bar the High Court from exercising its jurisdiction in certain contingencies.

Rakesh Kumar vs State Of U.P. And Another on 15 September, 2022

9. I have considered the arguments raised by the learned counsel for the parties and have carefully gone through the judgement rendered in M/s Magadh Sugar & Energy Ltd. vs. The State of Bihar & Others (Supra) where the appellant had invoked the writ jurisdiction of the High Court to challenge the imposition of Electricity Duty and penalty on the electricity that it was supplying to Bihar State Electricity Board. The appellant being a Sugar Mill Company was producing electricity out of waste of sugarcane, which it was supplying to Bihar State Electricity Board since March, 2008, under the Bihar Electricity Duty Act, 1948 as amended in 2002, which also provided that the State of Bihar could levy tax on the basis of value of units of energy consumed or sold at the rate specified by it in its notification. The appellant had challenged the notifications issued regarding rates notified by the State Government before the High Court. The High Court struck down the notifications on the ground that there were no guideline in the Statute for the notifications for construing the expression "value of energy". The State of Bihar being aggrieved filed a Special Leave Petition before the Supreme Court where the matter is pending. The State of Bihar amended the Bihar Electricity Act and defined the term "value of energy". Such amendment was challenged by the Bihar Sugar Mills Association in writ jurisdiction before the Patna High Court and the Writ Petition was pending. In the meanwhile, the fourth respondent issued notice to the appellant for failure to file returns with regard to levy of taxes and duties. The Assistant Commissioner, Commercial Tax rejected the arguments raised by the appellant that it was supplying energy to the State of Bihar. In the mean while, the National Thermal Power Corporation Limited had also filed a Writ Petition challenging the imposition of Electricity Duty on its supply of Electricity to various Electricity Boards including the Bihar State Electricity Board. The High Court held that Electricity Duty cannot be included under Section 3 (1) of the Bihar Electricity Act on a power generation company supplying Electricity to a Licensee Electricity Board. The Respondents filed Special Leave Petitions which were dismissed by the Supreme Court.

Indian Oil Corpn. Ltd. and others (supra) and also in the case of Magadh Sagar & Energy Ltd. Vs. State of Bihar and others (supra). Therefore, I am of this view that the impugned order is not sustainable. Accordingly, this petition is allowed and the impugned order passed by respondent No.3 is quashed. Respondent No.3 shall be however at liberty to proceed against the petitioner in accordance with law and by following the principles of natural justice on the basis of complaint present against the petitioner. With these observations the petition is disposed off.
