Syed Shah Mohammed Quadri, J.1. In these three cases, the question referred to this Court under s. 256(1) of the IT Act, 1961 (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act'), is common. For appreciating the question referred to us, we shall extract the question in R. C. No. 67 of 1987 : 'Whether, on the facts and circumstances of the case, the assessee-company is eligible for allowance under s. 80J for the asst. yrs. 1980-81 and 1981-82 ?' 2.

The judgment of the learned Single Judge directing the appellants to pay enhanced rent of Rs. 30,000/- per month for the premises occupied by the 2nd appellant with effect from 10-11-1988 is assailed before us on the submission of a direction to pay enhanced rent to be properly the subject matter before a Civil Court to be urged, and should not be directed under the extraordinary jurisdiction of this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.2. Mr. R.N. Reddy, learned Counsel for the appellants, has strenuously contended before us that the relationship between the parties being contractual, a variation in the terms of payment is outside the purview of the Court in its extra ordinary jurisdiction.3.
