V. Bhargava, J. 1. These sales tax references Nos. 368 to 377 of 1953 are connected and have been heard together. In all these ten cases the question referred to this Court for opinion by the Judge (Revisions) Sales Tax is :-Whether linseed oil is edible oil within the meaning of notification No. S.T. 117/X-923/1948, dated 8th June, 1948?2. This question has been referred to us as the dealers concerned with these ten references are all dealers in linseed oil and the question arose whether tax on their turnover in respect of linseed oil was to be calculated at the rate applicable to edible oils or at the rate applicable to non-edible oils in view of the notification referred to in the question. The Sales Tax Officer who first made the assessment held that linseed oil is a non-edible oil.

Court: Allahabad

Reported in: AIR1961All386

S.S. Dhavan, J.1. This is a plaintiff's second appeal against the decree of the learned District Judge, Agra dismissing his suit for redemption of a mortgage. This mortgage was made in the year 1874 by one Tulfi in favour of a man called Kan-hayia Ram. The amount borrowed under the mortgage was Rs. 99/- repayable within 5 years together with simple interest at Rs. 1/4/- per mensem. The mortgage contained a condition that the mortgagee would be entitled to take possession of the land in the event of default in payment of any instalments of one year's interest. It appears that such a default did take place with the result that Kanhayia Ram filed a suit for possession which was decreed and possession delivered to him. After this, the mortgage became usufructuary.The plaintiff appellant Farasram is the succes-sor-in-interest of the mortgagor Tulfi and the defendant respondents of the mortgagee Kanhayia Ram.

Standard Glass Beads Factory and anr. Vs. Shri Dhar and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-16-1960

Reported in: AIR1960All692

Mootham, C.J. 1. The question which has been referred to this Bench is whether an order of a learned Judge of this Court dismissing an appeal against an order granting a temporary injunction is a judgment within the meaning of Clause 10 of the Letters Patent. 2. The meaning which should be given to the word 'judgment' in Clause 10 of the Letters Patent of this Court and in the corresponding Clauses of the Letters Patent of the other High Courts has engaged the minds of Judges for close on a hundred years, and has given rise to a divergence of opinion which can now only be resolved by the Supreme Court. The question has been considered in a very large number of cases many of which have been referred to in the judgment of my brother Srivastava. Basically there are three views as to what constitutes a 'judgment'. A decision according to one view will amount to a judgment if it determines some right or liability affecting the merits of the dispute between the parties; according to the seco...

Decided on: Mar-15-1960

Reported in: AIR1961All151; 1961CriLJ338; [1961(2)FLR332]; (1961)IILLJ1All

ORDERM.C. Desai, J.1. The simple question raised in this revision application is whether the complaint filed on 30-4-1958 for an offence under the Factories Act, 1948, the commission of which came to the notice of the Inspector on 31-1-1958, was 'withinthree months of' the latter date or not. Under Section 106 of the Factories Act no court can take cognizance of an, offence punishable under the Act unless complaint thereof is made 'within three months of the date on which the alleged commission of the offence came to the knowledge of an Inspector.'If the period of three months is computed after excluding 31-1-1958, it is admittedly within three months, but if 31-1-1958 is taken to be the first day of the period of three months the complaint is admittedly not within three months. In B. P. Thakur v. State, 1959 All LJ 317 : (AIR 1959 All 787), I took the view that Section 12 of the Limitation Act applies, that consequently the date on which the offence came to the notice of the Inspector...
