Rajagopalan, J.1. The petitioner, a spinning mill with its headquarters at Madurai, assessed to sales tax on its purchase turnover in cotton, applied under Section 12-B of the Sales Tax Act to set aside the order of the Appellate Tribunal which confirmed the assessment on a turnover of (1) Rs. 3,54,152-9-9 in the assessment year 1949-50 (the transactions were between 26th January, 1950 and 31st March, 1950, T.R.C. No. 21 of 1957); (2) Rs. 4,51,24,252-7-3 in the assessment year 1952-53 (T.R.C. No. 22 of 1957); and (3) Rs. 6,70,57,555-5-3 in the assessment year 1951-52 (T.R.C. No. 23 of 1957). The main ground on which the petitioner-assessee claimed that these items of its turnover were not assessable to sales tax is the same in all the three assessment years and we find it convenient to dispose of all the three petitions together, even as the Tribunal disposed of the appeals, by a single judgment.2. The petitioner-assessee was a dealer and in the relevant assessment years the assessee o...

S. Ramachandra Iyer, J.1. This is an appeal under Section 7(1) of the Madras: Act XXX of 1956 against the declaration made by the Estate Abolition Tribunal, Vellore, that the inam village of Nazarathpet, situate in Sriperumbudur Taluk, Chingleput District, was an inam estate within the meaning of Act XXVI of 1948. The proprietor of the estate is the appellant.2. The inam Nazarathpet is a Shrotriem inam village granted by the East India Company to one Varadappa Mudali, an ancestor of the appellant. The village is a part of what was originally called Tondamandalam. The regime of the Muhammadan Rulers in the 17th and 18th centuries brought about practically a collapse of the agricultural economy in that part of the country, partly by reason of the unconscionable assessments and demands made by the Rulers or their servants-upon the cultivators, and partly due to devastation by war, famine, etc. Emigration and consequent depopulation followed. It was in that condition that the Nawab of the ...
