Nos. 107 & 108/Bang/2025 (in ITA No. 1741 & IT(TP)A No. 2599/Bang/2024) that order or till the disposal of the appeal whichever is earlier. The Ld.AR further submitted that the assessee is ready to dispose of the main appeal but the Revenue, by way of a written request, sought for time since one of the issue involved in this appeal is about the CIT vs. Roca Bathroom Products (P.) Ltd. reported in [2021] 127 taxmann.com 332 (Madras) issue which is pending before the Hon’ble Supreme Court and therefore the non- disposal of the appeal could not be attributable to the assessee and prayed for the extension of stay. 3. We have also perused the documents and found that initially this Tribunal had granted a stay on satisfying itself that the assessee had deposited more than 20% of the demand. We have also perused the order sheet and found that the appeal could not be heard since the Ld.DR had filed adjournment applications on the ground that one of the issue to be decided is Roca Bathroom Products (P.) Ltd. which is pending before the Hon’ble Supreme Court. Therefore, we are satisfied that the non-disposal of the appeal is not because of the assessee but because of the reason that the issue is pending before the Hon’ble Supreme Court, as stated by the Revenue. In such circumstances, we are inclined to extend the stay for a further period of six months from today or till the disposal of the appeal whichever is earlier. 4. In the result, both the present stay petitions filed by the assessee for the extension of stay are allowed. Order pronounced in the open court on 25th September, 2025.
