Facts:
High Court disposed off the case on the grounds of delay in filing appeal by the department.
Held:
In cases where huge stakes are involved, the High Court should examine and decide the case on merits and should not dispose off the same based on the mere grounds of delay in filing appeal by the department. In such a case, the High Court may impose costs on the department. Accordingly, the present matter was remitted to the High Court to decide the case de novo in accordance with the law.
