Satish Chandra, C.J. 1. A Division Bench felt unable to follow the law laid down by another Division Bench in Smt. Sarju Devi v. Prescribed Authority, Kanpur (1977 All LJ 251). It has referred the following question of law to a larger Bench. 'Whether the Prescribed Authority, while exercising jurisdiction under Clause (rr) of Section 43 (2) of the 1972 Act, has jurisdiction to take subsequent events into consideration or to modify the permission granted under Section 3 of the 1947 Act and to evict a tenant from a portion of the building even though permission may have been granted in respect of the entire building?'2. Section 43 of the U. P. Urban Buildings (Regulation of Letting, Rent & Eviction) Act, 1972 deals with repeal and savings. By Sub-section (1), it repeals the U. P.

Kundan Lal Vs. Surendra Nath and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-14-1980

Reported in: AIR1980All205

ORDERSatish Chandra, J. 1. A suit for partition was decreed. The defendants desired to file an appeal. They filed an application for permission to file the appeal as an indigent person under Order 44, C. P. C. It appears that the application for permission was not properly verified. The plaintiff-applicant raised an objection that the Court had no jurisdiction to permit the defendants to rectify the defect. The Court overruled this objection and allowed the defendants to verify the application. He then fixed a date for enquiry into pauperism of the defendants. Aggrieved by this order the plaintiff has come to this Court in revision. Learned counsel submits that the amendment introduced by the Allahabad High Court to Rule 5 of Order 33, C. P. C., is no longer applicable and may be deemed to have been repealed by Section 97 of Central Amending Act of 1976.2. Order 33, Rule 2, C. P. C. provides that an application for permission to sue as an indigent person, shall be signed and verified i...

Ramji Das Laxman Das Vs. Commissioner of Income-tax

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-10-1980

Reported in: [1980]122ITR732(All); [1980]4TAXMAN28(All)

Satish Chandra, C.J.1. For the assessment year 1961-62, the assessee claimed deduction of interest paid by it on loans advanced by certain persons to it on hundis. It proved the loans by producing the hundi khokhas which contained the signatures of the creditors, debtors and bankers. It had also established that interest was paid through account payee cheques. After enquiry, the ITO accepted its case and allowed deduction of interest. 2. Subsequently, the ITO received information from the ITO, Hundi Circle, Bombay, that there was a regular racket there, whereby certain persons lent their names and did not advance any money. Having reason to believe that the hundi loans claimed by the assessee were bogus, he reopened the assessment by issuing a notice under section 148 by applying Section 147, Clause (a), of the I.T. Act. The assessee appeared and took up the plea that the reopening was based on mere change of opinion and that the ITO had no material in his possession on the basis of wh...
