Reported in: ILR1983Delhi380

Sachar, J. 1. The staff working in Courts including that in High Court is normally a proverbial poor relation in comparison to the Secretariat staff. That possibly may be the reason why inspire of years spent in praying to get justice, nothing has been done necessitating the staff to resort, however, reluctantly to move this Court to get their legitimate dues which should have been given long back.2. The petitioners before us are the Deputy Registrars of this Court. Their claim in the petition is for payment of special pay. The posts of the Deputy Registrars are filled up either from amongst the members of Delhi Judicial Service or from amongst the Assistant Registrars of this Court by promotion.

However, no special pay is paid to a Deputy Registrar who is not a member of Delhi Judicial Service, At present the pe...

The said figure included an amount of Rs. 19,597 as belonging to the assessee and lying in the Standard Bank Ltd., London in the sum off 1,088.32. The assessee had filed the return of net wealth for the said assessment year claiming the status of non-resident. Thus, according to the assessee in the light of provisions of Clause (i) of Section 6 of the Wealth-tax Act, 1957 ('the Act') the value of the assets and debts located outside India was not includible in the computation of the assessee's net wealth.
