M.A. Chidambaram Vs. Commissioner of Income-tax

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Jan-31-1995

Reported in: [1995]216ITR175(Mad)

Mishra, J.1. After going through the statement of the case and the order of the Tribunal and considering the relevant facts and the principles of law, we are persuaded to refrain from making any order to provide the answer to the questions referred to us. How, in a given case, necessary information for invoking section 147(b) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, is applied has been settled by now by authoritative pronouncements of the Supreme Court and it is contended at the Bar that the audit report which only will point out a mistake in law, since the auditors are not interpreters of law, their interpretation will not be furnishing the necessary information. In case, however, any omission in respect of any income as pointed out, whether it comes through the audit report or otherwise, it is obvious, the same shall furnish necessary information to satisfy the requirements of the reopening of assessment under section 147(b) of the Income-tax Act. The Tribunal's order in this behalf, it is conce...

National Insurance Co. Ltd. Vs. R. Mohan and anr.

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Jan-31-1995

Reported in: II(1995)ACC484; 1996ACJ1151

M. Srinivasan, J.1. This appeal is taken up for hearing with the consent of parties. The insurance company is the appellant. It is the contention of the appellant that the accident had occurred on account of the negligence of the claimant himself, who was driving the autorickshaw involved in the accident and, therefore, he cannot claim any compensation under the provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act.2. The learned Tribunal has found that the accident was an act of God and an inevitable one. On that footing, the Tribunal proceeded to pass an award, granting compensation of Rs. 3,25,000/- to the claimant.3. We are unable to agree with the finding of the Tribunal that the accident was an act of God. There is ample evidence on the record to prove that the accident was caused only because of the negligence of the claimant himself. In the first information report, given to the police immediately after the accident, by a passenger, it is specifically stated that as the auto driver Mohan drove ...

Venugopal Reddiar Vs. Muthammal

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Jan-30-1995

Reported in: (1995)1MLJ648

ORDERGovardhan, J.1. This revision is against the order passed by the District Munsif, Thiruvannamalai, dated 12.8.1988 reducing the upset price in respect of the property which has been brought for sale, to Rs. 35,000.2. The revision petitioner would argue that the property is worth Rs. 1,04,000 and the learned District Munsif has reduced the same to Rs. 35,000 in an application filed under Order 21, Rule 66 of the Code of Civil Procedure without considering the principle to be followed in an application under Order 21, Rule 66 of the Code of Civil Procedure. It is also contended by the learned Counsel that the decree-holder has filed an application to bid at the auction and it was also allowed and the net result of the order passed by the learned District Munsif would enable the decree-holder to grab the property for a very low price and it has to be set aside in this revision. The learned Counsel appearing for the respondent would on the other hand argue that when the property is br...
