..... f Taxes was passed on September 4, 2013. Thereafter notice was issued to the assessee on September 30, 2013. The assessee asked for a date and thereafter another date was given directing it to appear before the assessing officer on November 8, 2013. Again a date was prayed for and the matter was adjourned to December 16, 2013. Again a request for adjournment was made but it appeared that this was not allowed and the assessment order was passed. We are clearly of the view that the manner in which the assessee has acted does not entitle it to get any relief from this court. - In this case the assessing officer gave notices thrice to the assessee but it did not care to appear before the assessing officer and just kept asking for adjou .....

..... e has acted does not entitle it to get any relief from this court. If the assessee was aggrieved by the order passed in September, 2013 and knew that the assessing officer is taking action he should have immediately approached this court. He has approached this court after the order has been passed by the assessing officer. Once the assessing officer had passed the order the only remedy available to him is to file an appeal before the appellate authority. In this case the assessing officer gave notices thrice to the assessee but it did not care to appear before the assessing officer and just kept asking for adjournments. We cannot condone this sort of behaviour of the assessee. Therefore, we reject all the writ petitions with liberty res .....
