Admittedly the petitioner-appellant and the respondent were married on 7-2-1960 according to Hindu rites. For some time the husband and wife lived together amicably.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-27-1971

Reported in: [1972]29STC134(All)

S.N. Dwivedi, J. 1. This is a reference under Section 11(1) of the U. P. Sales Tax Act by the Additional Judge (Revisions) Sales Tax, Gorakhpur. He has referred, along with the statement of case, these two questions :(1) Whether the second notice fixing 17th March, 1962, for hearing could be issued under the first proviso to Sub-section (2) of Section 21 of the U. P. Sales Tax Act during the pendency of the proceedings started on 24th February, 1959, when the first notice was issued?(2) Whether service of the second notice under Section 21 of the Act would extend the period of 4 years for a further period of one year from the date of service of the notice ?2. It appears to us that these questions are not happily framed. Accordingly we reframe a single question as follows:Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case the assessment made under Section 21(1) is validly made within one year of the date of the service of the second notice issued after the service of the first no...
