Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Jan-25-1961

Reported in: [1962]45ITR191(AP)

CHANDRA REDDI C.J. - The question that arises for consideration in this reference is as to the starting point of the period of limitation under section 34(1) (a) of the Indian Income-tax Act, i.e., whether the eight years period has to be computed from the expiry of the accounting year or the assessment year.This very question fell to be decided by a Bench of this court Talluri Raghavaiah v. First Additional Income-tax Officer, Bapatla. After referring to the various provisions of the Indian Income-tax Act and several of the decided cases, we reached the conclusion that the year contemplated by section 34(1) (a) is the assessment year and not the accounting year.Sri Narasinga Rao for the section contends that the judgment of the Supreme Court in Pannalal Nandlal Bhandari v. Commissioner of Income-tax throws doubt on the correctness of the principle enunciated in Talluri Raghavaiah v. First Additional Income-tax Officer, Bapatla. We have to demur to this proposition. Far from rendering ...

They arise out of suits brought by the appellant-petitioner for recovery of rents against tenants in the several Courts of Srikakulam district for different faslis.(3) These suits were resisted by the defendants, inter alia, on the defence that the lands being situate in an estate within the definition of S. 3 (2) (d) of the Act which described an estate, the Civil Court has no jurisdiction to try the suits. These objections prevailed with all the Court, except in O. S. No. 52 of 1953, the subject matter of which was 15 acres 76 cents....
