Satyabrata Sinha, C.J.1. The applicant has filed this application for grant of leave to appeal to Supreme Court of India in terms of Section 261 of the Income Tax Act, 1961.2. The factual matrix of the matter lies in a very narrow compass. The applicant filed an application before the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (for short 'the Tribunal) seeking reference to this Court, the following questions for its opinion:1. Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was right in holding that further enquiries were required to sustain the levy of penalty u/s 271(1)(c) even in a case where revised return was filed. 2. Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the finding of the ITAT that there was no material on record for the asst. year 1985-86 to show that the purchases made by the assessee from the said four parties were bogus, is not baseless and perverse. 3.

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-09-2001

Reported in: (2002)ILLJ929AP

1. The question that arises for consideration in this appeal is as to whether the learned single Judge was right in directing the appellant to avail of the statutory appeal available to it under the provisions of Section 48(3) of the A.P. Shops and Establishments Act, 1988 (hereinafter referred to as the Act).2. The question that fell for consideration before the learned single Judge was as to whether the date of birth of the respondent was October 13, 1940 or October 13, 1943.3. It appears that by reason of a direction issued by the State Government holding that the date of birth of the workman is October 13, 1940, his services have been terminated. The workman, however, contends that his date of birth is October 13, 1943 and not October 13, 1940.4. Mr. Koka Satyanarayana Rao, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the appellant would submit that such a question could not have been arisen for consideration before the appellate authority and in support of the said, contention the learn...

S.B. Sinha, C.J.1. This application is directed against a judgment dated 3-5-2000 passed by the A.P. State Administrative Tribunal whereby and whereunder the petitioner's original application was dismissed. The question that arose before the learned Tribunal was as to whether the disciplinary authority while disagreeing with the finding of the enquiry officer was not bound to state reasons which impelled him to differ with the finding of the enquiry officer. The learned Tribunal referred to Rule 21(4) of the A.P. Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal)Rules and inter alia held:'A reading of Rule (2) and (3) of Rule 21 makes it crystal clear that the disciplinary authority while disagreeing with the findings of the enquiry officer can only impose a minor punishment referred in Clause (i) to (v) of Rule 9, notwithstanding anything contained in Rule 22.
