The company insured its goods for certain amounts in the years preceding the account year in question but, during the account year in question mentioned above, it appears that the Government detected that the assessee had failed to pay the proper insurance premium for the earlier years and not properly insured its goods.The Government, therefore, started a case against the company and eventually the Government demanded the premium, which had remained unpaid, in addition to the penalty for commission of the default. The demand originally was for a sum of Rs. 1,54,830/-. This demand was, however, reduced and the matter was ultimately compromised for a ...
