licencee obtained licence by submmitimg no dues sales tax certificate issued by department. accordingly advance licence fee was accepted and allowed to operate liquior business,
later on assistant commissionr, commercial taxes informed about arrears of tax ,petioner licence was cancelled as tender and agreement provides that licence cant be issued in favour of persons who are in arrears of tax.
i appear for excise department and searching apex court judgment in my favour that wronful grant of licence may be cancelled subsequently on disclosure even department by mistake issued no dues certificate.
