The permit renewal application along with application for the issue of 04 Month Temporary permit U/S 87(1) d of MV act to SC KL 05 T 5024 was placed before the RTA Kottayam held on 16/10/2008 in the light of Judgment in WP© 14742/2008 of Honble High Court of Kerala and has adjourned with the following decision.

1) Perused the Judgment. 2) (i) Considered in detail.The route objectionably overlaps on the notified route Trivandrum-Thekkady.This is the Violation of notification No.6122/B1/Tran dated 15/09/08.As per clause 04 of the said notification permit is not renewable,TP only can be issued. Hence adjourned without prejudice to the right of the applicant to approach the Secretary for TP under above clause. (ii) NOC of the financier is not produced. 14

(iii) Application for replacement of vehicle not submitted. Hence Adjourned.

On 25/03/2008 the permit holder submitted application for the replacement of the vehicle with later model SC KL 05 T 5024 which is owned by Sri.Sunny George,Kondodickal stating that the permit holder Sri.C S Varkey taken possession of the vehicle KL05 T 5024.The said application along with regular permit renewal application placed before the RTA Kottayam dated 20/08/2011has adjourned with the following findings.

1) Heard.The route bus KL 06 9273 is held under HPA with M/S KTDFC Trivandrum.The permit holder has not submitted the NOC from the financier even after the expiry of 04 years. 2) The secretary RTA has reported that the tax in respect of the outgoing vehicle KL 06 9273 is in arrears. Hence the Secretary RTA is directed to call for NOC from the financier and also assess the total amount of tax due from the permit holder. Now Joint regional Transport Officer, Kanjirappally forwarded the Registration certificate in respect of SC KL 6 9273 along with service verification report. As per the records, M/S KTDFC Trivandrum was issued Form 35 along with No objection certificate for canceling the HP Agreement which is not endorsed due to the tax arrears of the vehicle. SC KL 06 9273 attained 15 years on 07/03/2011 and tax due in respect of the vehicle is amounting to Rs 12,11370/- for the period from 01/07/2004 to 31/03/2011.As per the enquiry report dated 09/10/2009 of Sri P G Kishore AMVI Kanjirappally, it is reported that SC KL 06 9273 was dismantled and sold as scrap(as per the version of Registered owner) but no evidence received regarding the same.

Now the permit holder filed application for renewal of regular permit for a further period of 05 years from 08/03/2012.

This Item was placed before the RTA meeting dtd 17/03/2012 as in vide item No 37 and RTA took the following decision in vide order No C4/12840/2007/K. “Herad .This authority considered the matter in details and adjourned with following details. 1.Applicant will clear the arrear of tax Rs-12,11,370 and approach this authority as and when tax is cleared. 2.Secretry will place the matter before the immediately only clearance of tax.”

In this connection it is pertinent to note that, RTA is a quasi judicial body. It has directed the applicant to approach the authority for renewal and replacement of the permit only after clearance of arrear tax. RTA being a quasi judicial body it has no inherent powers to review its own decision. In order to review the decision taken by RTA an order from appellate authority as contemplated u/r 90 of the MV Act is mandatory. In this case it is humbly submitted that the applicant has not challenged the decision of RTA dated 17.03.2012 before 15

any appellate forum. Hence request of the petitioner is worthless and the Secretary, RTA has no powers to pass an order on an application which is adjourned by the RTA.

It is also noted that as per section 3 (03) of the Kerala Motor vehicles Taxation Act, The registered owner of, or any person having possession or control of a motor vehicle shall, for the purpose of this Act, be deemed to use or keep such vehicle for use in the state, except during any period for which no tax is payable on such motor vehicle under sub section (1) of section 5. As per the lease deed dated 30.03.2004, appellant is in possession of the vehicle KL 06 9273. Hence the possessor is also liable to pay the arrear tax.

On 30.11.2017 the permit holder Sri.C.S.Varkey again submitted a request to re-consider the permit renewal application. The applicant appeared for personal hearing on 05.01.2018. The tax in respect of the vehicle KL 06 9273 was in arrears from 01.07.2004, application was kept pending with direction to the applicant to clear the tax arrears. The tax arrears not cleared till date. Permit renewal application in respect of the vehicle KL 06 9273 has considered by the RTA in its meeting held on 17.03.2012 and decision had already taken and communicated to the applicant.

Matter being so, Now the permit holder submitted a request before the Honorable Chairman RTA, Kottayam to renew and replace regular permit covered with SC KL 06 9273 without insisting clearance of arrear tax.

Hence, RTA may hear the applicant, peruse the file and Judgment and take decision.

2.To consider the request for transfer of permit in respect of S/C KL 07 AX 4946 covered by a temporary permit on the route Kottayam - Parippu from the name of the 1st applicant to the name of the 2nd

Applicants:- 1. Sri. Thomas, S/o Devasia Chacko, Mannanal house, Lakkattoor, Kooroppada, Kottayam 2. Sri. Abu K S, Kaimukkil house, Aymanam P O,Kottayam

Notes:-

S/C KL 07 AX 4946 was conducting stage carriage service on the route Parippu – Kottayam with a regular permit which was valid upto 25/03/2015.The initial permit was issued after 14/07/2009. The renewal of regular permit application was considered by RTA at its sitting on 08/02/2016 and taken the following decision as follows.

“ Heard Adv. I Dinesh Menon, learned counsel represented the applicant. Considered the application for renewal of regular permit in respect of the stage carriage KL 07 AX 4946 operating on the inter district route Parippu-Kottayam as Town Service. This permit is seen issued after 09-05-2006 (ie on 29/01/2010).

The route applied overlaps from Gomathy Pump Junction to Baker Junction 0.6 Kms on notified Ernakulam-Thekkady Scheme and from Baker Jn to Kudayampady 3.2 Kms on Kottayam-Neendoor complete exclusion scheme. As per notification No. 42/2009/Trnas dtd 14/07/2009, the maximum permissible overlaps is 5 Km or 5 % of the length of their own route which ever is less on the notified route for the purpose of intersection. In this case the route length is 10.5 Kms and it overlaps 3.8 Kms on the notified route, which exceeds the maximum permissible limit.

Honorable High Court also held that a private operator of stage carriage service traversing the same line of travel on a notified route cannot be permitted to overlap for a distance beyond the limit prescribed on the ground that it is an inevitable intersection [2013(2) KLT 280]. Hence regular permit renewal application is hereby rejected.

Secretary,RTA has liberty to grant and issue temporary permit of 04 months duration U/S 87(1) c of MV Act or till KSRTC resume service which ever is earlier.”

After the rejection of renewal of regular permit application, 4 months temporary permit is issued to the permit holder in respect of S/C KL 07 AX 4946 regularly since the KSRTC has not occupied in the route. The existing temporary permit [5/173/2018] is valid upto 22/06/2018.

The first and second applicants were jointly approached before the Hon’ble High Court of Kerala to seek transfer of permit in respect of S/C KL 07 AX 4946 and the Hon’ble Court has delivered its judgment in WP[c] No.9523/2018 as follows.

“ Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader, I am of the opinion that Ext.P3 [ request for transfer of permit] application preferred by the petitioners is liable to be considered in accordance with law.

There will be a direction to the respondents to take up, consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 application within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.”

The applicants were appeared before Secretary, RTA on 13/06/2018. S/C KL 07 AX 4946 is not covered any regular permit now and is conducting service with temporary permit .

Hence the RTA may hear the applicants, peruse the records and take a decision.
