1. These five Wealth-tax Applications, namely, WTR Nos. 96, 97, 98, 106 and 170 of 1984 raise indentical questions.2. They, as such, are being decided by a common order. The prayer contained in these applications under Section 27(3) of the Wealth-tax Act, 1957, is that the Tribunal may be called upon to refer to this court for its opinion the three questions mentioned therein. As regards question No. 1 we are of the opinion that it does not arise from the appellate order of the Tribunal. The remaining questions Nos. 2 and 3 are being reproduced herein below as questions Nos. 1 and 2 :'1. Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal could reasonably come to a finding that no benami transaction was involved in this case ? 2.

Jagannath Manni Lal Vs. Commissioner of Sales Tax

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jul-25-1986

Reported in: [1987]66STC390(All)

Anshuman Singh, J.1. The assessee was carrying on business in kerana, dry fruits, etc. In the assessment year 1974-75 regular assessment was made by the assessing authority under Rule 41(7) of the U.P. Sales Tax Rules by an order dated 28th August, 1976. It is pertinent to mention that in the original assessment proceedings the turnover of 'makhana' was assessed under the category of 'dry fruits' under Notification No. 6628 dated 1st December, 1973. This Court in the case of Hardeo Das Satya Narain v. Commissioner of Sales Tax 1978 UPTC 789 held that makhana is to be taxed as unclassified item. It appears that a notice dated 23rd March, 1979 under Section 21 of the U.P. Sales Tax Act (hereinafter referred to as the Act) was issued to the assessee on the ground that certain turnover has escaped assessment. Ultimately the assessing authority by order dated 20th September, 1979 held that the turnover of makhana should be taxed as unclassified item in view of the decision of this Court in ...

Reported in: [1987]67STC416(All)

Anshuman Singh, J.1. The assessee was carrying on business in various items including the selling of Indian made foreign liquor. The assessee did not file return for the months of May, June, July and August, 1983 and consequently it was assessed under Rule 41(6) of the U. P. Sales Tax Rules for the aforesaid months by the Sales Tax Officer. In the first appeal filed by the assessee the turnover fixed by the assessing authority was reduced by fifty per cent. The assessee feeling aggrieved preferred a second appeal before the Tribunal which dismissed the same. The assessee has come to this Court in the instant revision under Section 11(1) of the U. P. Sales Tax Act against the aforesaid order of the Tribunal.2. Mr. M. S. Negi, learned counsel for the assessee, contended that the assessee was not given any notice before passing the assessment order by the assessing authority and as such the order passed by the Sales Tax Officer is vitiated on that ground alone. Counsel for the parties agr...

Reported in: AIR1987All115

A.N. Verma, J.1. By means of this petition, the petitioner has prayed for a writ of certiorari quashing the impugned bills of demand in respect of electricity consumed by the petitioner.2. Shortly stated the petitioner's case is that under the impugned bills the respondents are demanding from the petitioner an amount which is far in excess of the actual consumption as indicated by the meter fixed by the respondent. It is contended that the respondent is not entitled to demand any amount in Excess of the electricity consumption as indicated by the meter installed by the respondent.3. In the counter-affidavit, the stand taken is that the respondent discovered from a reading of the meter fixed on the premises of the petitioner Mills that the actual consumption indicated by the meter was far below the real consumption. It was found that the main meter installed in the petitioner mill's premises for recording power consumption was running slow as compared to actual consumption of electricit...

Anshuman Singh, J.1. The assessee is a dealer in iron and steel. It appears that the original assessment was completed by the assessing authority. Subsequently proceedings under Section 21 of the U. P. Sales Tax Act (hereinafter referred to as the Act) were initiated in which the turnover of Rs. 77,381.20 was subjected to tax by the Sales Tax Officer. The first appeal filed by the assessee before the Assistant Commissioner (Judicial) was allowed.

Being aggrieved against the aforesaid order of the Tribunal, the assessee has come to this Court in the instant revision.2.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jul-23-1986

Reported in: [1987]67STC412(All)

Anshuman Singh, J.1. These three revisions under Section 11(1) of the U. P. Sales Tax Act (hereinafter referred to as the Act) are directed against the order dated 25th January, 1986 passed by the Sales Tax Tribunal, Allahabad Bench-I, relating to assessment years 1978-79, 1979-80 and 1980-81. Since all the revisions arise out of a common order, they are being disposed of by a common judgment.2. The applicant was the sole proprietorship concern of late Sri Vishnu Narain Dixit. He died on August 6, 1980, leaving behind his widow. The disclosed turnovers of the assessee-applicant for the assessment years in question under the Act were rejected by the assessing authority and best judgment assessment was passed. Having failed in the first appeals the assessee preferred second appeals before the Tribunal which too met the same fate. Hence these revisions.3. I have heard learned counsel for the parties. Sri Bharatji Agarwal, learned counsel for the assessee, did not challenge the rejection o...

It appears that two cross appeals were filed one by the assessee and the other by the Revenue against the judgment passed by the Assistant Commissioner (Judicial), Bareilly, regarding the assessment year 1982-83.
