Reported in: (1983)34CTR(All)324; [1983]142ITR123(All); [1983]13TAXMAN305(All)

H.N. Seth. J.1. The assessee, M/s. Gupta Stores, Katra, Allahabad, is a registered firm. Originally it was constituted by four partners including one Smt. Laxmi Devi who died on 26th October, 1976. Thereafter, the remaining partners carried on the business of the firm in the same name and style. For the assessment year 1977-78 the assessee filed two separate returns, one for the period April 1, 1976, to October 26, 1976, and the other for the period October 27, 1976, to March 31, 1977, and claimed that two separate assessments should be made for that year. The ITO rejected the claim of the assessee on the ground that as after the death of Sint. Laxmi Devi the remaining partners had continued the business as a going concern and had taken over all the assets and liabilities of the previous firm, it was a case where merely a change in the constitution of the firm had taken place and hence a single assessment for the entire period could be made. The view taken by the ITO was upheld in appe...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Dec-16-1982

Reported in: [1984]57STC299(All)

B.N. Sapru, J.1. This is an assessee's revision.2. A penalty was imposed on the assessee under the provisions of Section 15-A(1)(g) on 21st August, 1979, for having failed to obtain registration for the year 1975-76. When the notice of the proceedings was given to the assessee, the assessee submitted an explanation.3. The Sales Tax Officer while noticing the explanation, did not attach weight to it and imposed a penalty of Rs. 500.4. The assessee made a representation but no representation lay against an order imposing a penalty.5. The State filed a revision which was later converted into an appeal against an order imposing the penalty on the ground that the penalty imposed was illegal as under the law, as it then stood in 1975-76. Section 15-A(1)(g) provided for a penalty amounting to Rs. 4,800.6. The Tribunal only examined the question as to whether the penalty imposed was in accordance with law or not. It found that a penalty of Rs. 4,800 could have been imposed on the assessee acco...

Reported in: 1983CriLJ736

D.N. Jha, J.1. The applicant Sunder Lai moved an application in this Court for being released on bail. The sole question on which the learned Counsel pressed the application was that the detention of the applicant in jail after commitment was illegal as at the time of commitment the warrant issued for purposes of detention of the applicant was for an indefinite period and rendered the detention of the applicant illegal.
