The matter of refund of the electricity duty came up for consideration before a Division Bench of this Court in Misc. Bench No. 5055 of 2019; M/S Bansal Wire Industries Ltd. Vs. State of U.P. & Ors. and other connected petitions.

The aforesaid judgment is final and conclusive as the SLP filed against the same has been dismissed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court. The present matter is covered by the Division Bench judgement of this Court.

In view of the aforesaid, we dispose of this writ petition in the same terms and conditions as in the judgment and order dated 7.8.2019 passed in the above referred writ petition.

The writ petition accordingly stands disposed of.
