ORDERV. Sivaraman Nair, J.1. Petitioner is a manufacturer of steel materials. The goods are subjected to Central Excise duty. The petitioner-unit is covered by a Central Excise licence and it has opened a P.L.A. Account in respect of iron and steel.

Reported in: 1994(2)ALT188

A. Lakshmana Rao, Acting C.J.1. This writ appeal arises out of the order dated 28-9-1992 allowing Writ Petition No. 10401 of 1992. The respondent herein is the writ petitioner. He established a rice-mill at Itchapuram, Srikakulam District, in the year 1964 after obtaining the requisite permit under Section 5 of the Rice Milling Industry (Regulation) Act, 1958 (for short 'the Act'). He was also granted licence under Section 6 of the Act for carrying on rice-milling operations. This license was renewed from time to time till the year 1973-74. As the license was not renewed thereafter, the rice-mill became defunct from 1974-75. For the year 1975-76, the respondents sought for fresh permit under Section 5 of the Act, and fresh permit was granted by the Commissioner of Civil Supplies in his proceedings dated 28-1-1976 and he carried on milling operations thereafter till the year 1983. Again from 1-4-1983, the mill had become defunct. On 21-2-1990, the respondent again applied for a fresh pe...

ORDERG. Radhakrishna Rao, J.1. This writ petition by the petitioner is for the issue of a writ of mandamus declaring the proceedings in pursuance of the FIR No. 311 of 1992 of Panjagutta Police Station and consequent investigation as void being illegal and unconstitutional.2. The facts leading to the filing of the writ petition are briefly as follows:-The petitioner A. Veerabhadra Rao and another E. Sridhar (Accused Nos. 1 & 2). approached the 3rd respondent (who is the complainant) for supply of cement and in that connection six cheques for a total value of Rs. 72,000/- have been issued by the accused in favour of the complainant.

Bhagyanagar Metals Ltd. Vs. Commercial Tax Officer, Ramgopalpet Circle ...

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Oct-27-1993

Reported in: [1994]93STC40(AP)

V. Sivaraman Nair, J.1. The only question which arises in this writ petition is : Whether, the Commercial Tax Officer is entitled to issue a demand couched in the form of notice requiring an assessee to pay a fairly large amount of money allegedly towards sales tax, which may be due, if, according to him, the correct rate of tax was applied to the turnover of the dealer, who is the petitioner before us 2. It is surprising that the Commercial Tax Officer would not look into the law which has conferred power on him and which regulates the exercise of such power. It is not his ipse dixit that the tax paid by the assessee is short of what was due or the rate at which the tax was paid was less than the tax which was due, that should determine the entire proceedings. If the assessee pays tax which is less than what ought to have been paid or the rate applied was less than what should apply, the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh General Sales Tax Act (A.P.G.S.T. Act) would require the Commerci...

Sakinala Hari Nath and ors. Vs. State of Andhra Pradesh and ors.

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Oct-26-1993

Reported in: 1993(3)ALT471

M.N. Rao, J.1. In this batch of cases, the primordial question for consideration concerns the constitutionality of Sub-clause (d) of Clause (2) of Article 323A. Part XIV-A of the Constitution of India consisting of two Articles - 323A and 323B - was inserted by Section 46 of the Constitution (42nd Amendment) Act, 1976 with effect from 3-1-1977. Clause (1) of Article 323A confers power on Parliament to establish, by law administrative tribunals for adjudication of disputes and complaints with regard to persons appointed to public services and posts in connection with the affairs of the Union or of any State or of any local authority or of Public Corporation controlled or owned by the Government. Sub-clauses (a) to (g) of Clause (2) speak of what the law made under Clause (1) may provide for. Sub-clause (d) of Clause (2) lays down that the law made under Clause (1) may 'exclude the jurisdiction of all Courts except the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court under Article 136 with respect to t...

Paro Food Products Rep. by Its G.P.A. Holder, Sri B. Prakash Chand Sax ...

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Oct-25-1993

Reported in: 1994(1)ALT172

ORDERB. Subhashan Reddy, J.1. This Revision Petition is not at all maintainable as there is no order passed by the Court-below so as to be assailed under Section 115 of C.P.C. There is no decision or order rendered by the lower Court so as to invoke the revisional jurisdiction under Section 115 of C.P.C. The complaint is that even though the lower Court has heard the Counsel at length perused the affidavit filed in support of the I.A. as also the documents 1 to 53 in support of the claim for temporary injunction, the lower Court did not make any interim order as contemplated under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 read with Rule 3 thereof and that thereby committed material irregularity in exercise of the jurisdiction vested in it by law. The contention is that the lower Court having power to pass the interim order was bound to pass the said interim order having regard to the material on record and that non-passing of the said ex-parte interim order amounts to failure to exercise the jurisdiction...

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Oct-15-1993

Reported in: 1993(3)ALT666

Y. Bhaskar Rao, J.1. These two writ petitions give rise to the far-reaching question, whether the Lokayukta has jurisdiction to conduct preliminary verification into matters touching the All India Service officers. By virtue of Andhra Pradesh Lokayukta & Upa-Lokayukta Act, 1983 (for short 'the Act 11/83'), the Institution of Lokayukta is established in the State with the prime object of meeting the of expressed public outcry against the prevalence of corruption, the existence of wide spread inefficiency and the unresponsiveness of the administration to the popular needs and to provide a machinery in order to examine public complaints and shift the genuine from the false or the untenable so that the administrative failures and achievements could be publicly viewed in their correct perspective.2. It is not disputed that the term 'preliminary verification' as used in the Act 11/83 is similar to the expression 'investigation' in the code of Criminal Procedure and the term 'investigation' i...
