            Provided that an appeal preferred after the expiry of thirty days may be admitted by the Collector of Sales Tax (Appeals) if he is satisfied that the appellant has sufficient cause for not preferring the appeal within the specified period:

            Provided that, where in any case, the Collector of Sales Tax (Appeals) is satisfied that the deposit of tax (Omitted) as aforesaid is likely to cause undue hardship to the appellant, he may dispense with such deposit subject to such conditions or restrictions he may deem fit to impose:  

            Provided further that in any particular case, the Collector of Sales Tax (Appeals) may direct that pending decision of the appeal, the tax (Omitted), shall be paid by the appellant in suitable installments spreading over a period not exceeding six months from the date of such direction:
