Om Prakash, J.1. This is a revision for the assessment year 1978-79, by the Revenue against the Tribunal's order dated 14th March, 1986.2. The assessee deals in scrap and utensils. There is no dispute regarding the turnover of scrap. The facts are that a diary was seized at the time of survey dated 10th September, 1980. From the diary, it was discovered that the assessee made certain transactions of utensils relating to the assessment year 1978-79, the assessing officer drew the inference that the transactions related to purchases of utensils from outside the State, he therefore, initiated the proceedings under Section 21 of the U. P. Act, 1948 and brought such purchases of utensils treating them as purchases from outside the State to tax.3. The assessee's contention was that the purchases were made locally and not from outside the State.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-10-1987

Reported in: [1988]68STC32(All)

R.R. Misra, J.1. These two revisions filed by the assessee arise out of a consolidated order dated 24th September, 1986 passed by the Sales Tax Tribunal, Bench II, Meerut, in respect of the liability of the assessee to sales tax both under the U. P. Sales Tax Act as well as under the Central Sales Tax Act for the assessment years 1977-78 and 1978-79 in so far as liability under the U. P.

Commissioner, Sales Tax Vs. Ram Chandra Ram Sheo Shankar Prasad

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-06-1987

Reported in: [1987]67STC261(All)

Om Prakash, J.1. This is a revision for the assessment year 1977-78, against the Tribunal's order dated 10th August, 1982, by the Revenue.2. None has appeared on behalf of the dealer and, therefore, I have heard only learned Standing Counsel. Undisputedly, the foodgrain was declared commodity under Section 14 of the Central Sales Tax Act. As the sales were effected to unregistered dealers, the department sought to impose tax under Section 3-D(2) of the U. P. Sales Tax Act, 1948 (for short the Act, 1948). Before the Tribunal, it was contended on behalf of the dealer that the assessee had made purchases without form 3-Ka from the arhtias and, therefore, the inference could be drawn that the tax was paid by the selling dealer as the tax was on the point of sale to consumer. The submission of the learned Standing Counsel is that the declared goods cannot be subjected to tax at a second stage and unless there is a categorical finding of the Tribunal that the goods already suffered tax befor...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-06-1987

Reported in: [1987]67STC362(All)

Om Prakash, J.1. This is a revision for the assessment year 1972-73 by the assessee against the Tribunal's order dated 8th July, 1985.2. The facts are that according to the assessing officer, the assessee failed to pay the admitted tax in time and therefore, interest amounting to Rs. 6,957.70 was imposed in the assessment order. The assessee filed appeal before the Assistant Commissioner (Judicial) and before the Tribunal, but, failed at both the stages.3. Before the Tribunal, the assessee contended that an amount aggregating to Rs. 8,349.43 had become refundable to the assessee on account of the excess payment made over the years 1965-66 to 1971-72 and that if the amount refundable is adjusted first, then there would be no interest liability. The Tribunal rejected the contention of the assessee on the ground that no doeumentary evidence was shown by the assessee to support the contention that a sum of Rs. 8,349.43 became refundable prior to the date of the assessment and that if no re...

Om Prakash, J. 1. This is a revision for the assessment year 1972-73 by the Revenue against the Tribunal's order dated 14th March, 1986.2. None has appeared for the dealer and, therefore, I have heard only learned Standing Counsel. I have carefully gone through the order of the Tribunal. The question for consideration is whether the steel pipes, manufactured by the assessee, are declared goods within the meaning of Clause (iv) of Section 14 of the Central Sales Tax Act as it stood prior to the amendment made by the Central Sales Tax (Amendment) Act, 1972. Prior to the amendment, Clause (iv) of Section 14 of the Central Sales Tax Act stood as follows :(iv) Iron and steel, that is to say,-(a) pig iron and iron scrap;(b) iron plates sold in the same form in which they are directly produced by the rolling mill;(c) steel scrap, steel ingots, steel billets, steel bars and rods;(d) (i) steel plates, sold in the same form in (ii) steel sheets, which they are directly (iii) sheet bars and tin b...
