Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-04-1980

Reported in: [1980]122ITR202(All)

Satish Chandra, C.J.1. For the assessment years 1966-67 and 1967-68, the Tribunal has referred for our opinion the following question of law:'Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, when for the assessment years 1966-67 and 1967-68, the assessee had not filed a return of income in compliance with the notice under Section 139(2) as also a declaration in Form No. 12 as required in Section 184(7) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, it could have been allowed the benefit of continuance of registration ?'2. From the question itself it is apparent that the assessee did not file a declaration in Form No. 12 nor did he file a return of income. The proviso to Section 184(7) requires a declaration in writing in the prescribed form that no change in the constitution of the firm or in the shares of partners has taken place, and unless this declaration is filed renewal cannot be effected. Renewal is not automatic. It has to be done after the requirements of law have been complied with ...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-02-1980

Reported in: AIR1980All142

ORDERK.N. Goyal, J.1. The petitioner was a tenant of an urban building consisting of a shop against whom a suit of ejectment brought by the landlord has been decreed by the Small Cause Court. The Additional District Judge also dismissed the revision filed by the petitioner on 23-9-1978. In that revision, the learned Additional District Judge discussed only the question of validity of notice and observed that no other points had been pressed. The petitioner then filed a review petition with the allegations that he had wanted to press the other points also, but did not consider it necessary to do so merely because he was told that his revision was to be allowed on the question of validity of notice. This review petition was dismissed on 6-12-1978. The writ petition was filed against both orders, namely, the order dismissing the revision and also the order dismissing the review petition. By order dated 19-1-1979 this Court dismissed the writ petition so far as challenge to the order annex...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-02-1980

Reported in: (1980)17CTR(All)258; [1983]139ITR825(All)

Satish Chandra, C.J. 1. For the year 1965-66, the petitioner filed return under the W.T. Act, 1957. By an assessment order dated February 26, 1971, the assessee was assessed on a total wealth of Rs. 4,62,401. In the return, the petitioner had indicated in the column meant for jewellery a sum of Rs. 1,21,835. Since the Supreme Court had, in CWT v. Arundhati Balkrishna : [1970]77ITR505(SC) , held that jewellery was liable to be excluded from assessment under the W.T. Act, the WTO allowed an exemption on the jewellery of the aforesaid amount shown as 'jewellery', under Section 5(1)(viii) of the W.T. Act.2. Finance (No. 2) Act of 1971 amended Section 5(1)(viii) by introducing the phrase 'but not including jewellery'. The amendment was made retrospectively with effect from April 1, 1963.3. Subsequently, the WTO issued a notice for rectification under Section 35 of the W.T. Act. He proposed to include Rs. 1,21,835 in the assessable wealth. The petitioner filed objections which were rejected ...
