ORDERV. Ratnam, J.1. The short question that arises for consideration in this Civil Revision Petition at the instance of the plaintiffs in O.S. No. 2274 of 1981, District Munsif's Court, Tiruchirapalli, is whether the Court below was right in its conclusion that no stamp duty is leviable in respect of the document styled as a deed of release relied upon by the respondent and directing its admission in evidence. The document in question is styled as a surrender of rights under a lease. The recitals therein indicate that the executants have clearly given up and surrendered their tenancy rights with reference to the property appended to the schedule.

The State of Tamil Nadu Vs. Monotype India Limited

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Jul-04-1984

Reported in: [1986]62STC434(Mad)

ORDERRamanujam, J. 1. The common question that arises in all these three tax revision cases is whether the sales of importer printing machine, parts and accessories on the basis of the actual user's license and letters of authority produced by customers could be treated as sales in the course of import. In these cases the Tribunal has found after verification of the records that the assessees accepted orders for import of printing machine, parts and accessories subject to the condition that the buyers must produce the necessary actual user's licences and letters and authority in favour of the assessees, that they forwarded these orders to their head office in London, that all the shipping documents contained the details of the actual user's import licence of the buyers, that the forwarding note sent by the U.K. seller specified that the goods were intended to the actual user referred to in the licence and that the goods were to be delivered to that particular customer on whose behalf t...

The State of Tamil Nadu Vs. the National Cash Register Co.

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Jul-04-1984

Reported in: [1987]66STC264(Mad)

Ramanujam, J. 1. Since the points involved in both the tax cases are same, they are dealt with together. In T.C. No. 105 of 1978 the turnover disputed is Rs. 1,97,000 in respect of which the assessees claimed exemption on the ground that it represented sales in the course of import. In T.C. No. 243 of 1978 the turnover in dispute is Rs. 1,59,477 which, according to the assessees, represented sales in the course of import and as such the said turnover is exempt from tax. The assessing authority, however, disallowed the claim of the assessees in both the cases and brought to charge the disputed turnovers holding that they did not represent sales in the course of import, but they represented the local sales. The denial of exemption in relation to the disputed turnovers was affirmed by the Appellate Assistant Commissioner. When the matter reached the Tribunal, the Tribunal after verification of the records found that the buyers, namely, Hotel Sudarsan International in one case and Savera H...
