Grant or refusal of stay is the absolute discretion of court which has to be exercised having regard to the facts of the case. Nobody can tell beforehand whether stay will be granted or refused by District Court/High Court. You will get an opportunity to argue against grant of stay when the court fixes a date for hearing the request for grant of stay.
