The petitioner s approach of merely writing letters after the decision dated May 05, 2016 cannot be construed as an assertion of its rights in the manner known to law. There are much substance in the submission of Mr.Jetly that the petitioner was not diligent in asserting its rights and pursuing its cause. The delay is quite gross which would disentitle the petitioner to any equitable and discretionary reliefs. We are, accordingly, not inclined to exercise our jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution, to entertain this petition.

Thereafter by a letter dated May 23, 2016, the petitioner stated that the e-com for IEIS although was generated by the petitioner on March 28, 2016, however, due to system error, the petitioner could not deposit the fee on March 28, 2016 and the fee was deposited on April 7, 2016.
