After considering the arguments presented, the Tribunal concluded that the balance of convenience did not support granting the stay in these cases, leading to the dismissal of the stay petitions.

This decision was based on the absence of objections from the ld. DR, indicating a willingness to accommodate the assessees' request for expeditious proceedings.
