Anand General Store Vs. Commissioner of Sales Tax

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Feb-13-1987

Reported in: [1987]66STC349(All)

Om Prakash, J.1. Raising a very interesting question of law, this revision is filed by the assessee carrying business in handloom, cashmilon, etc., for the assessment year 1978-79 against the Tribunal's order dated 7th May, 1986.2. By the order dated 25th February, 1980, the Sales Tax Officer (S.T.O.) imposed the tax at the rate of 2 per cent on the turnover of cashmilon. As the books of account were rejected and the turnover was enhanced by the S.T.O., the assessee appealed to the Assistant Commissioner (Judicial) [A.C. (J.)] challenging the rejection of the books of account and the enhancement of the turnover. Imposition of tax at the rate of 2 per cent on the turnover of cashmilon was not the subject-matter of appeal. The A.C. (J.), however, observed towards the end of his order dated 24th April, 1982, that according to rules cashmilon was liable to be taxed at the rate of 7 per cent and not at 2 per cent. He, therefore, remanded the case to the S.T.O. to reassess the sales of cashm...

Sanjay Mishra Vs. Nagar Palika, Etawah

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Feb-11-1987

Reported in: AIR1987All276

Ravi S. Dhavan, J.1. Encroachment on public places like sidewalks, pavements and public streets at times take novel shapes and styles. Some are upon them, others over them as if in suspended animation. The case before us is one such instance. There is no dispute that the petitioner's little shop is over a public drain and a public street. But, the petitioner contends that it is not upon the public street or the drain and that strictly he has neither encroached a public street or a drain nor violated the law. The shop is partlyembedded in a wall adjoining a public street. It does not touch the ground but j uts out over it.2. The case relates to the town of Etawan. In this town functions a civic body known as the Municipal Board, Etawah, which carries on its functions under the Uttar Pradesh Municipalities Act, 1916 (hereinafter referred to as the Act). In this town there is a main street. It is known as the Station Road. This road is crossed by another public street called Bazaza road. ...

British India Corporation Limited Vs. Commissioner, Sales Tax

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Feb-09-1987

Reported in: [1987]66STC250(All)

K.J. Shetty, C.J.1. This is the second time the matter is coming before the Full Bench.2. The primary question that arises for consideration is whether woollen cardigans and pullovers are to be treated as articles of hosiery or as woollen goods.3. The turnover relating to articles of hosiery is taxable at the rate of 3 per cent as per Notification No. 3613 dated July 1, 1969; whereas that of woollen goods is taxable at 6 per cent under Notification No. 1365/X-9-56 dated April 1, 1969.4. The answer to the question, in our view, presents no problem and it may be sufficient if we may set out the events leading to the petition before us.5. The British India Corporation Ltd. (BIC), was an assessee under the U.P. Sales Tax Act, 1948. In the assessment year 1970-71, it had a turnover of over a crore of rupees relating to the sale of woollen cardigans and pullovers. All the authorities under the Act brought the turnover to tax at 6 per cent treating the same as sale of woollen goods and not as...

K.J. Shetty, C.J.1. A Division Bench of this Court has referred this case to a Larger Bench while doubting the correctness of the decision in Vinaya Kumar v. District Supply Officer, 1980 All LJ 462.

Later on there was a family settlement by which the land came to be allotted against the share of petitioner who became the owner thereof.3. Petitioner moved the Rent Control and Eviction Officer for determining the annual rent p...
