The turnover of sales of steel wire after 31-7-1967 was disclosed at Rs. 80.250.75 and it was claimed that this part was not taxable, because it was U.P. purchased hardware.2. The Sales Tax Officer accepted the submission of the assessee that steel wire was hardware and so its turnover after 31-67-1967 was exempt from sales tax. He, however, enhanced the turnover of U.P.

Sarvadaman Rai Vs. Dalganjan Rai and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jul-15-1977

Reported in: AIR1977All417

ORDERAmitav Banerji, J.1. The petitioner has challenged in this writ petition an order passed by the Deputy Director of Consolidation, Luckoow (Camp at Ghazipur), dated 25th January 1975 on the ground that although he was a necessary party, he had neither been impleaded nor heard before the alteration in the chak was made. There is no dispute that the petitioner was not impleaded as a party in the revision filed by Joginder Rai and others. The point in issue is whether the interest of the petitioner was represented by his cousins and uncles. The contention on behalf of the petitioners was that they did not represent his interest, and since the petitioner was not afforded an opportunity of being heard before the alteration in the chaks were made there was a breach of the rules of natural justice and the petitioner's interest gravely prejudiced. The contention on behalf of the contesting respondents was that the petitioner was a joint chak holder along with respondents 1 to 5, who were p...
