Reported in: [1982]49STC354(All)

C.S.P. Singh, J.1. The petitioners were partners of a firm against which there were certain sales tax dues. It appears that these dues were not paid as a result of which recovery certificates were issued by the Sales Tax Officer. There was a dispute between the petitioners and the department regarding adjustment of certain payments alleged to have been made by the petitioners. In paragraph 8 of the petition the petitioners allege that adjustment had not been granted in respect of 17 items of payments which had been made by them. In the writ petition they have prayed for a direction commending the respondents from refraining from realising the amounts mentioned in the recovery certificates without first adjudicating upon the claim of the petitioners for adjustment of the dues from the amounts alleged to have been paid by them. By an earlier order, this Court directed the Sales Tax Officer to go into the claim of the petitioners for adjustment and to examine as to whether the payments al...

Rastogi, J.1. The Income-tax Appellate Tribunal, Allahabad Bench, Allahabad, has referred the following two questions for our opinion !'1. Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the value of the jewellery at Rs. 42,388 was rightly included in the computation of the deceased's estate ? 2. Whether the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal was right in holding that inclusion of the shares of other lineal descendants in the estate of the deceased for rate purposes was justified under Section 34(3)(c) of the Act?' 2. At the time of the hearing of the reference we were not addressed on question No. 1 by the learned counsel for the accountable person. This question, therefore, does not survive for our consideration.3. Coming to the other question the facts giving rise to it, in brief, are that one Sri Balwant Singh died on October 27, 1965. His wife, Smt. Britain Kaur, as well died a little later and their son, Devendra Singh, filed a statement of the estate left by the deceased ...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Oct-19-1981

Reported in: [1982]50STC208(All)

V.K. Mehrotra, J.1. The Commissioner of Sales Tax, U. P., who is the applicant in both these cases, has assailed the orders of the Additional Judge (Revisions), Sales Tax, Varanasi Range, Varanasi, by which he held that the turnover of the respondent-dealer in respect of batasha and illaichidana in assessment years 1973-74 and 1974-75 was exempt from levy of sales tax.2. It is not in dispute in this Court that the dealer was a manufacturer so far as batasha and illaichidana are concerned. The turnover of these commodities in these years was subjected to tax by the assessing authority whose decision was upheld by the first appellate authority.3. Under Notification No. ST- 4064/X-960(4)-58 dated 25th November, 1958, issued in exercise of the powers under Section 4 of the U. P. Sales Tax Act, 1948, sugar containing more than ninety per cent of sucrose but excluding, inter alia, batasha was exempted unconditionally from payment of sales tax under the Act with effect from 1st July, 1958.

Commissioner, Sales Tax Vs. Chokhani Co.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Oct-19-1981

Reported in: [1982]51STC195(All)

C.S.P. Singh, J.1. This is a revision by the Commissioner of Sales Tax, U.P., Lucknow, against the order passed by the Sales Tax Tribunal, Gorakhpur Bench, Gorakhpur.2. The revision relates to the assessment year 1975-76. The assessee, apart from dealing in other articles, dealt in oil-seeds. His account books were accepted. The assessee claimed exemption in respect of the turnover of the sale of oil-seeds amounting to Rs. 60,741.23 on the ground that these sales were made on 2nd October, 1975 and it had already been taxed at the point of purchase and therefore could not be taxed at the point of sale to the consumer. The ground taken in support of this exemption was that oil-seeds were a declared commodity under Section 14 of the Central Sales Tax Act and could not be subjected to tax at more than one point in view of Section 15(a) of that very Act. The Sales Tax Officer did not accept this claim and the appeal filed by the assessee failed. The point, however, found favour with the Tri...
