Court: Chennai

Decided on: Sep-06-1991

Reported in: AIR1992Mad214; (1992)IIMLJ116

ORDERAbdul Hadi, J. 1. This appeal has been posted before us on being referred to by Bellie, J., since the view he is taking on the question involved in the appeal is in conflict with the view taken by Ratnam, J., in his decision reported in Pattayi Padayachi v. Subbaraya Padayachi : (1980)2MLJ296 .2. This appeal is by the plaintiff against the dismissal of his suit O.S. No. 296 of 1975 on the file of Sub Court, Cuddalore praying for setting aside the sale under Ex. B.4 dated 2-8-1961, effected by his mother when he was a minor, in so far as his 3/4th share therein is concerned and for partition and separate possession of the said share. The question to be answered is whether the said sale is hit by S. 8 of The Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, 1956 since admittedly the plaintiff's mother did not obtain the previous permission from the Court as contemplated in the said Section, and consequently whether the plaintiff could avoid the said sale with reference to his above said 3/4th sh...

Premier Paper Products Vs. Superintendent of C. Ex., Coimbatore

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Sep-06-1991

Reported in: 1995(80)ELT15(Mad)

ORDER1. The petitioners are engaged in the business of converting duty-paid poster paper into wax coating paper. They are assessees under the Central Excises and Salt Act, 1944 (hereinafter called 'the Act'). They had been paying the duties as demanded by the respondents at the time of removal of the wax-coated papers. According to the petitioners the only work done by them is to coat duty-paid poster paper with paraffin wax on either side. Therefore the duty-paid poster paper continued to be used and there was no manufacturing process in the conversion as above. However, they had paid duty under mistake of law. It is now well-settled as it would be seen from Kwality Coated Products v. Government of India [1980 (6) E.L.T. 579] that such coating of duty-paid paper would not attract excise duty. The Notification No. 184/76-C. E., dated 27-5-1976 issued by the Government of India was held to be illegal and was quashed. 2. In view of the law as declared by this court, the petitioners filed...

ORDERKanakaraj, J.1. The petitioner is the same in all the four writ petitions and it is a partnership firm. They imported the following consignments of steel strips:-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Sl.
