Gurram Venkata Subbarao and anr. Vs. the State of Andhra Pradesh

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Jan-28-1970

Reported in: [1971]27STC91(AP)

Ramachandra Raju, J.1. A common question is involved in all these five tax revision cases. In all the five cases, the assessee, which is a firm is common. The five cases relate to the assessment years 1961-62 to 1964-65. T.R.C. No. 29 of 1966 relates to the year 1961-62 and T.R.C. No. 27 to the year 1962-63, T.R.C. No. 3 to the year 1963-64 and T.R.C. Nos. 4 and 61 to the year 1964-65. It appears that there was a change in the partners of the firm during the year 1964-65 and therefore there were two assessments for that year and the two cases relate to those two assessments.2. The assessee-firm was transacting business both directly and through commission agents. With regard to the transactions, namely, sales made by the commission agents they were assessed separately and tax was collected. The common dispute involved in the five cases relates to the sales of 'green ginger' conducted by the commission agents. It appears with regard to those sales conducted by the commission agents they...

It is in that view that the Additional Sessions Judge (Sri P. Raghunatha Sastry) made the reference for interference by this Court.2. I may at the outset point out that the learned Additional Sessions Judge as alBO the Magistrate failed to understand tbe true scope of Section 93 of the Andhra Pradesh...
