On account of delayed remittance, the authorities have imposed damages and interest on the petitioner. 4. Challenging the same, the petitioner has preferred an appeal before the Employees' Provident Fund Appellate Tribunal and such appeals ought to have been filed before the Southern Bench at Bengaluru.

The benefit of such order should be enure in favour of the petitioner also. Therefore, till the petitioner's appeal petition is heard on merits and in accordance with law, the respondents should not take any coercive action. 8.
