Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Sep-22-1960

Reported in: [1961]41ITR406(All)

GURTU, J. - This is a reference under section 66(1) of the Indian Income-tax Act. The assessee consisted of several persons who combined together with the object of purchasing coal to supply the same to customers for domestic purposes and to other small scale industries. The finding of the Tribunal is that the several persons constituted an association of persons within the meaning of section 3 of the Income-tax Act. The request to refer the question whether the several persons who had so combined, did or did not so constitute an association, was refused by the Tribunal.

There is no dispute as to the quantum of the total income computed by the said officer. The tax was levied upon the total income in the hands of the said association of persons (the assessee).
