Kulbhushan Chawla Vs. Commissioner of Sales Tax

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-16-1984

Reported in: [1986]61STC215(All)

1. The petitioner is aggrieved by the fact that form XXXI under Rule 85(3) is not being issued to the petitioner unless a security of Rs. 300 is deposited in its behalf. In that connection the circular dated 11th October, 1983 (annexure I to the writ petition), has been challenged, which contains a general direction that such forms shall not be issued unless the applicant deposits as security a like amount. In fact, this direction has been occasioned on account of an extensive malpractice. A writ petition was filed in this Court in which similar matter was considered, being Civil Miscellaneous Writ Petition No. 685 of 1983 in which an interim order was passed requiring the petitioner therein to deposit as security a sum of Rs. 420 per form. Since similar situation has arisen again and the petitioner asked for supply of form XXXI, in order to guard against malpractices, the department has issued the impugned circular whereby a sum of Rs. 300 is being demanded from the applicant by way o...

1. These are eight connected applications relating to different assessment years under Section 27(3) of the W.T. Act, 1957. The Appellate Tribunal refused to state the case on the ground that no question of law arose and, therefore, the Department has now come up in the instant applications and in support of the same, we have heard the learned counsel for the Deparment. In opposition, we have heard the learned counsel for the respondent, Sri R.S. Dhawan. The learned counsel for the Department contended that, in the instant case, a question of law did arise and the Appellate Tribunal was in error in thinking that no question of law arose and also it erred in thinking that even if a question of law arose, the answer was self-evident and, therefore, it was not necessary to make a reference.2. To appreciate the rival contentions of the learned counsel, certain facts, in brief, may be stated. The respondent-assessee was assessed as an individual during the assessment years 1969-70 to 1976-7...
