HC granted interim stay on tax demand following appeal disposal, acknowledging non-operational status of Appellate Tribunal. Initial two-week unconditional stay granted, with extension contingent on petitioner's payment of 10% of disputed tax balance, supplementing previous Section 107(6) deposits. Stay continuation linked to either writ petition resolution or subsequent orders. Court directed filing of affidavit-in-opposition within six weeks, allowing one week for reply. Decision balanced taxpayer protection with revenue interests while addressing procedural gap due to pending Tribunal establishment.
