Satish Chandra, C.J.1. A partnership firm by the name of Radhey Shyam Lal Bahadur got itself registered under the Sales Tax Act somewhere in 1969. In due course, it won an excise shop at an auction. The firm appears to have carried on the business of selling liquor in that shop. In due course, the Sales Tax Officer commenced proceedings for the assessment year 1969-70 and ultimately passed an assessment order levying a sales tax amounting to Rs. 55,840 on the firm Radhey Shyam Lal Bahadur. The assessed amount of tax not having been paid, recovery proceedings were initiated against the parties. A notice thereof was served on the petitioner Shanker Lal. He made an application to the Sales Tax Officer that he was not connected at all with the firm Radhey Shyam Lal Bahadur. He was never a partner in that firm. His name has been wrongly introduced. The recovery proceedings should hence be dropped against him. Finding no satisfactory response, the petitioner came to this Court and filed the ...
