Reported in: [1982]50STC369(All)

V.K. Mehrotra, J.1. The Commissioner of Sales Tax has filed this revision under Section 11(1) of the U.P. Sales Tax Act challenging the decision dated 4th June, 1981, of the Sales Tax Tribunal, Kanpur, taking the view that synthetic essential oils of different varieties sold by the dealer-opposite party-during the year 1975-76 was not exigible to tax under the U.P. Act as 'scents and perfumes' at the rate of 12 per cent. The assessing authority and thereafter the Assistant Commissioner (Judicial), Sales Tax, had held the turnover of that sale liable to tax at that rate.2. From the order of the Tribunal it appears that it examined itself the samples of the articles which had been sold by the dealer. On its own opinion, on the nature of the article, the Tribunal felt that it could not be treated to be covered by the entry 'scents and perfumes'. It has recorded its finding in the following terms:The appellants have produced before me the synthetic essential oils of different varieties and...

1. These two appeals, both relating to the assessment year 1977-78, one filed by assessee against the order of the Commissioner, under Section 263, and another filed by the revenue against the order of the AAC, revolve round the same facts and are, therefore, for the sake of convenience, disposed of by a consolidated order.2. The assessee is an individual. Here it will be necessary to point out that the assessee was also the karta of his HUF which was a partner in the firms Hanuman Prasad Surya Prakash and Kanhaiya Lal Hanuman Prasad. The assessee's wife Smt. Gita Devi was also a partner in both of these firms. The assessee, in his individual capacity, was, however, a partner in Kanhaiya Lal Hanuman Prasad only. The assessment of the assessee-individual was completed by the ITO by order dated 22-12-1977 on the assessee's share from the firm Kanhaiya Lal Hanuman Prasad and the assessment was, thus, made on a total income of Rs. 37,260.Subsequently, however, the Commissioner was of the ...

Tulsi Ram and ors. Vs. State Transport Appellate Tribunal and Regional ...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Feb-12-1982

Reported in: AIR1982All366

S.J. Hyder, J.1. The business of operating public service vehicles is a traderegulated under the provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act, hereinafter referred to as the Act. The process of regulation of the trade and the hierarchy of the Tribunal constituted to give effect to the regulatory provisions of the Act is in itself a fruitful source of litigation between persons competing to enter or to expand their trade. A further complication has been introduced by the policy of nationalising some routes. Another factor which has contributed to increased litigation is that the State Government has looked at the problem of public interest from different standpoints from time to time. All these elements have combined together and are reflected in the present bunch of five writ petitions which we are called upon to decide. Since the question of factual involvement in all these cases are common and the dispute in the writ petition relates to the same route we propose to decide these writ petition...
