Thodkamalla Venkata Laxmi Narayanarao Vs. Kishanlal

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Oct-14-1960

Reported in: AIR1961AP326

Sharfuddin Ahmed, J. 1. The short question that requires determination in this Miscellaneous Appeal is whether in the Execution petition filed by the appellant the period of limitation will be computed from the date of the original decree or from the date of the decree passed by the appellate court.2. Briefly, the relevant facts for the appreciation of the arguments are as under: The father of the appellant filed a suit in the City Civil Court against four defendants and obtained a money decree on 10th Shahrewar, 1353 F. (1944 AD) against the 1st defendant; the suit being dismissed against the other defendants.

Dadi Bhogalingam Vs. Indo Commercial Bank Ltd. and anr.

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Oct-12-1960

Reported in: AIR1961AP346

Kumarayya, J.1. This appeal entered on behalf of the plaintiff raises a short point of some interest in law. As a matter of fact two questions arise for determination. While the one pertains to the statute of limitation, the other which is rather vital to the case is concerned with the determination of the exact legal relationship between the 2nd defendant on the one hand, and the 1st defendant or the plaintiff on the other.The question is whether the 2nd defendant is a sub-agent of the 1st defendant or an agent or a substituted agent of the plaintiff for the 1st defendant for purpose of collection of bill amount from the drawee. If it be found that the case is well within the pale of substituted agency or even if privity of contract in any wise be found established between the plaintiff and the 2nd defendant it is indisputable that this appeal must fail.2 In order to appreciate the arguments advanced in this respect, it is necessary to relate the material facts of the case in all thei...

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Oct-12-1960

Reported in: [1961]42ITR80(AP)

BASI REDDY, J. - The common question which falls for determination in these writ petitions is whether the Income-tax Officer, Vizianagaram Circle, was right in treating the petitioner as the legal representative of his mother Mahalakshmamma, and in that view holding him liable to pay half the income-tax assessed on her for the three years 1950-51, 1951-52 and 1952-53. The provision of law under which the petitioner is sought to be made liable is sub-section (1) of section 24B of the Indian Income-tax Act, which provides :'Where a person dies, his executor, administrator, or other legal representative shall be liable to pay out of the estate of the deceased person to the extent to which the estate is capable of meeting the charge, the tax assessed as payable by such person, or any tax which would have been payable by him under this Act if he had not died.'The undisputed facts are as follows :The petitioner (V. V. Rama Rao Naidu) and his brother (V. V. Narayana Rao Naidu) are the sons of...
