Indian Commerce and Industries Co. Ltd. Vs. Commissioner of Income-tax ...
Court: Chennai
Decided on: Aug-17-1965
Reported in: [1966]60ITR229(Mad)
VEERASWAMI J. - What is in question in this reference is the validity of the orders made under section 23A of the Income-tax Act, 1922, as it stood before the 1955 amendments, for the assessment years 1949-50 to 1952-53. The assessee is a private limited company carrying on business at Madras. In respect of those years it declared dividend which fell short of 60 per cent. of the assessed profits less taxes. The Income-tax Officer, therefore, assumed jurisdiction and directed by his orders that the undistributed balance of the profits should be deemed to have been distributed to its shareholders. In doing so, he proceeded on the basis of assessed profits less taxes. The assessee, on the other hand, claimed that for purposes of application of section 23A the basis would be not assessed profits but book or commercial profits. In computing such profits the assessee deducted not merely the assessed taxes therefrom but also amounts set apart towards doubtful debts. The Income-tax Officer did...

Decided on: Aug-16-1965
Reported in: 1967CriLJ898
ORDERSadasivam, J.1. The complainant in S. T. C 579 of 1964 (S. R. No. 30185 of 1965) and S.T. C. 623 of 1964 (S. R. 30183 of 1965) on the file-of the Second Class Bench Magistrate seeks to file these criminal revision cases with S. R. 30185 & 30183 of 1965 respectively against the acquittal of the accused in the said cases. The question for consideration in these cases is whether the petitioner can file a criminal revision case against the judgment of acquittal instead of preferring an appeal after obtaining the necessary leave under Section 417, Cri. P. C.2. The contention of the learned Counsel for the petitioner is that he has concurrent remedies of preferring a criminal appeal under Section 417, Crl. P. C. after obtaining the leave of this Court and a criminal revision case and that he can choose one or the other of the remedies. He referred to the decision of the Supreme Court in Harihar v. State of West Bengal : AIR1954SC266 , in support of his contention that he is entitled to ...
