Commissioner of Income-tax Vs. Basant Cinema

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-17-1996

Reported in: [1996]222ITR396(All)

1. This is an income-tax reference application in which the following question has been referred for our opinion :'Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Appellate Tribunal was justified in holding that there was a reconstitution of the firm, two assessments had to be made, one for the period prior to the reconstitution of the firm and another for the post reconstitution period ?'2. The facts of the case are that on September 17, 1973, one of the partner of the assessee-firm died and it is alleged that thereafter the firm was reconstituted with new partners. The question is whether one assessment or two assessments in the assessment year 1975-76 could be made. It is settled law that on the death of a partner, the firm stands dissolved unless there is a term in the partnership deed that the firm would not stand dissolved on the death of the partner. From the orders of theauthorities, we are not able to find out whether any such term in the partnership deed exist...

Shambhu Saran Sanjeev Kumar Vs. Income-tax Officer and anr.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-16-1996

Reported in: (1999)151CTR(All)318; [1998]230ITR394(All); [1997]90TAXMAN85(All)

1. After we had passed the order dated April 15, 1996, Shri A.K. Gupta learned counsel for the petitioner, appeared and requested that since he had not been heard the case may be fixed for the next day, i.e., April 16, 1996. Hence we did not sign the order dated April 15, 1996, and we fixed the case for today for hearing.2. We have heard Shri A.K. Gupta, learned counsel for the petitioner. Shri Gupta has relied on the decision in CIT v. Bansi Dhar and Sons : [1986]157ITR665(SC) and urged that a writ petition is maintainable against the order of the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal. There is no doubt that an alternative remedy is not an absolute bar to a writ petition but ordinarily this court insists that a petitioner should resort to his alternative remedy if it is available and this court ordinarily does not exercise its discretionary jurisdiction under Article 226 if an alternative remedy is available.3. In the present case, it appears that an assessment order was passed under Section ...

Basant Paper Mills Ltd. Vs. Cegat

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-15-1996

Reported in: 1996(87)ELT623(All)

K.L. Sharma, J.1. Heard Shri A.P. Mathur learned Counsel for the petitioner and Shri Shishir Kumar learned Standing Counsel for the Central Excise Department and perused the record. Both the learned Counsels agree that this writ petition may be finally disposed of at the admission stage itself.2. The grievance of the petitioner is that the stay /waiver application filed alongwith the appeal has not been properly considered by the learned Tribunal and therefore he submitted another application dated 26-2-1996 pointing out the omissions and the record which were not considered by the learned Tribunal while partially allowing the stay/waiver application. I have perused this application dated 26-2-1996 and find that the learned Counsel for the petitioner appellant had argued before the Tribunal about the illegality of the confiscation order and imposition of fine of Rs. 1 crore but this was not at all considered by the Tribunal. The learned Counsel for the appellant-petitioner had also arg...
