Court: Chennai

Decided on: Apr-11-2005

Reported in: AIR2006Mad67; (2005)2MLJ533

Markandey Katju, C.J.1. This writ appeal has been filed against the impugned order of the learned single Judge dated 21.03.2005. We have heard learned counsels for the parties and perused the record.2. It appears that a temporary injunction dated 09.08.2004 was granted by the learned District Munsif, Perambalur in Interlocutory Application No. 282 of 2003 in O.S. No. 73 of 2003. Thereafter, a writ petition was filed in this Court to give adequate police protection to the writ petitioner for effective implementation of the aforesaid interim injunction. That writ petition has been allowed by the impugned order of the learned single Judge, and hence the present writ appeal.3. We are of the opinion that the impugned order cannot be sustained. When a temporary injunction order is passed in a suit by a civil Court under Order 39 Rule 1 of the Code of Civil Procedure and it is not complied with, the remedy of the plaintiff is either to apply under Order 39 Rule 2A of the C.P.C. or under Secti...

ORDERPrabha Sridevan, J.1.

Reported in: (2007)108TTJ(Chennai)740

1. This appeal by the assessee is directed against the order of the CIT(A) and relates to the asst. yr. 1996-97.2. The first issue relates to the levy of interest under Section 234A of the IT Act, 1961. Assessee paid self-assessment tax under Section 140A in December, 1997. Return was filed in August, 1999. Interest under Section 234A was charged until the date of filing the return. It was submitted before me that interest under Section 234A was compensatory and it should be charged only upto the date of payment of tax. To buttress this, reliance was placed on the decision of the Hon'ble Delhi High Court rendered in the case of Dr. Prannoy Roy and Anr. v. CIT this case the Hon'ble High Court has held that interest under Section 234A is payable in a case where tax has not been deposited prior to due date of filing of return, and not where tax has been paid but return has been filed belatedly. No contrary decision was brought before me. I, therefore, direct the AO to recompute the inter...

Reported in: (2005)2MLJ550

Markandey Katju, C.J.1. This writ appeal has been filed against the impugned judgment of the learned single Judge dated 6.8.1999. Heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the records. 2. The case relates to a proceeding under the Tamil Nadu Acquisition of Land for Harijan Welfare Schemes Act, 1978 (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act'). It appears that the original land owner was one Ramasamy Gounder, who died in Singapore ten years before the land acquisition proceedings began. There is nothing to show that a show cause notice was served under section 4(2) of the Act by the District Collector on the heirs of Ramasamy Gounder. Section 4(2) of the Act reads as follows:-'Before publishing a notice under sub-section (1), the District Collector or any officer authorised by the District Collector in this behalf, shall call upon the owner or any other person, who, in the opinion of the District Collector or the officer so authorised may be interested in such land, to show cause ...

Markandey Katju, C.J.1. This writ appeal has been filed against an interim order dated 13.08.2003 passed in Writ Miscellaneous Petition No.19375 of 2003 in Writ Petition No.15436 of 2003. By that interim order, the injunction application in the writ petition has been rejected. 2. While hearing the writ appeal we also decided to hear the writ petition itself because we were of the view that the writ petitioner has an alternative remedy under Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act (hereinafter referred to as the 'Act'). The Land Acquisition Officer in his Award dated 16.09.2002 has Awarded interest for more than 17 years with effect from 01.07.1985, and it is against this direction that the writ petitioner is aggrieved. 3. In our opinion, the writ petitioner had an alternative remedy under Section 18 of the Act because the direction against which the writ petitioner is aggrieved is contained in the Award of the Land Acquisition Officer. 4. Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act states:- ...
