Sunrise Radio has been given 42 days by the Royal Court of Justice to settle HMRC’s payment of over �400,000.

Chairman Avtar Lit, did not attend the hearing, which lasted just 2 minutes. He was represented by his barrister. Lit has until Monday 14th October to fork out the outstanding payment. If he fails to submit the outstanding money before the date give, the court will force the stations off air including Sunrise Radio, Kismat Radio and Buzz Radio.

Last week, it emerged that HMRC had filed a “wind-up” petition against Sunrise Radio for money the radio giant owed.

BizAsia contacted HMRC after the hearing today, who declined to comment due to legal reasons. They were not in a position to discuss the affairs of businesses at any stage of the process.
