Shri Shantanu Sharma, learned counsel for the petitioner.
Shri Shashank Shrivastav, learned counsel for the respondent appeared
through V.C.
This petition is filed against the illegal action of respondents, whereby

giving any opportunity of hearing, the property of the petitioner situated at
579, 579, 579-3, Mahatma Gandhi Road, Indore has been sealed by them.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the respondents have
sealed the property in question without servicing any demand notice or
without prior intimation. Hence, it is prayed that the respondents be directed
to reopen the sealed property in question which has been sealed by the

instructions with regard to depositing the amount as tax liability. He also
submits that he be informed first regarding tax liability levied against him.
Considering the same, the respondents are directed to prepare a
detailed chart with respect to the tax liability to be paid by the petitioner.
