Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-11-1996

Reported in: [1997]106STC304(AP)

1. Dissatisfied with the order passed by the Sales Tax Appellate Tribunal in T.A. No. 343 of 1984 the State has come up in revision. 2. The respondent-assessee was granted exemption on the ground of second sales, while passing the order of assessment under the Andhra Pradesh General Sales Tax Act, 1957 (for short, 'the AGPST Act'), for the assessment year 1981-82. However, the assessing authority in exercise of power under section 14(4)(cc) of the APGST Act withdrew the exemption on the ground that the first seller - M/s. Sri Veera Venkata Satyanarayana Rice and Oil Merchants, Narasaraopet - from whom the assessee claimed to have made the first purchase, ceased to be a registered dealer on the date of purchase. That order of the assessing authority was confirmed by the Appellate Deputy Commissioner, in appeal, on December 16, 1983. On further appeal by the respondent-assessee before the Sales Tax Appellate Tribunal, the appeal was allowed. Hence, the State is in revision before us. 3. ...

Lingaraja Rath, J.1. Both the appeals preferred by the same appellant arise out of the same facts and hence are disposed of by this common judgment.2. In both the appeals, preferred with the leave of the Court as it was not party to the Writ Petitions, the appellant assails the order of 22-3-1996 of the learned single Judge disposing of the Writ Petitions directing the respondent No. 2 to consider the representations of respondents No. 1 and 3. Though the petition for leave to appeal also raised grounds as a public interest litigation, yet during hearing of the case we have not been addressed as dealing with public interest petition and instead the learned counsel for the appellant has confined her submissions to the appellant's individual cause of action. In substance, the challenge is to the order passed by respondent No. 2 in favour of respondent No. 1 in W.A. No. 576 of 1996, stated to be in pursuance of the direction of the learned single Judge on 22-3-1996, agreeing to supply to ...
