Commissioner of Sales Tax Vs. Quality Ice Cream Co.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Feb-29-1980

Reported in: [1982]49STC301(All)

R.R. Rastogi, J.1.This is the Commissioner's application in revision under Section 11(3) of the U.P. Sales Tax Act. The respondent-assessee deals in icecream, etc. The assessing officer accepted the book version of the assessee for the assessment year 1973-74 but treating ice-cream as cooked food levied tax at 3 per cent. The appellate authority took the same view but the revising authority being of the opinion that ice-cream is a milk product, and its turnover was exempt from sales tax declared the assessee as non-taxable.2. I agree with the learned revising authority that ice-cream is a milk product and it is to be treated exempt from sales tax under Notification No. ST-911/X dated 31st March, 1956 (see Commissioner, Sales Tax, U.P. v. Kwality Restaurant 1979 UPTC 1298). However, with effect from 1st December, 1973, because of Notification No. ST-II-6628/X-1012-1972 dated 1st December, 1973, which was issued under Section 3-A(2) of the Act, the goods mentioned in the schedule to that...

Sales Tax Act 2. It is not disputed that the assessee filed a cheque of Rs. 43,854 towards admitted tax along with the first quarterly return for 1976-77. This was dishonoured on 28th August, 1976. The assessee was intimated and in compliance the amount was deposited by chalan on 30th August, 1976. As there was default in payment of admitted tax, notice under Section 15-A was issued and penalty of Rs. 4,385.40 was imposed. In the appeal it was reduced to Rs. 1,000. Against the reduction of penalty the Commissioner filed a revision but it was dismissed....

There, after consideration of the Supreme Court decisions, the Court held that when the Court exercise its judicial discretion in granting or refusing to grant leave to deliver interrogatories, it cannot be said to be an adjudication of some right or obligation of the parties in controversy.

Learned Counsel for the applicant relies upon Shamrao v. Moti Ram . In that case, there is a passing observ...
