Case Summary: Municipal Corporation Faridabad v. Nitco Roadways Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the appeal and set aside the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition. The Court annulled the Commissioner of Gurgaon Division's order that had reduced the composition fee. Nitco Roadways was ordered to pay appeal costs to the Municipal Corporation. Key Facts: Nitco's truck entered Faridabad's municipal limits without paying octroi (tax); the company subsequently sought composition, initially claiming driver error, then later claiming the payment was made under protest. The Court found no justification for Nitco's appeal against the composition order, ruling that once composition was voluntarily sought and obtained, no further challenge was warranted.
