The Income Tax Act, 1961
Titaghur Paper Mills Co. Ltd vs State Of Orissa on 13 April, 1983
15. Thus, while it can be said that this Court has
recognized some exceptions to the rule of alternative
remedy, i.e., where the statutory authority has not
acted in accordance with the provisions of the
enactment in question, or in defiance of the
fundamental principles of judicial procedure, or has
resorted to invoke the provisions which are repealed, or
when an order has been passed in total violation of the
principles of natural justice, the proposition laid down
in Thansingh Nathmal case, Titagarh Paper Mills case
and other similar judgments that the High Court will
not entertain a petition under Article 226 of the
Constitution if an effective alternative remedy is
available to the aggrieved person or the statute under
which the action complained of has been taken itself
contains a mechanism for redressal of grievance still
holds the field. Therefore, when a statutory forum is
created by law for redressal of grievances, a writ
petition should not be entertained ignoring the
statutory dispensation."
