D.R. Khanna, J.1. The present case somewhat brings out how clubs which are other wise places of recreation and relaxation get converted into hot-beds of group rivalries. Whether they are the result of one group or the other monopolising their hold over the entire affairs is difficult to say. In the present case, there are circumstances pointing towards that, though exaggeration of insignificant matters by the other side is also there. 2. This petition under section 633(2) of the Companies Act was moved by some members of the managing committee of the Chelmsford club in which they stated that there were apprehensions that the Registrar of Companies was likely to prosecute them under various provisions of the Companies Act and, thereforee, he should be restrained from doing so. It was claimed that there had been no acts of negligence, breach of duty, etc., on their part and in the circumstances they should not be made to undergo the rigour of baseless prosecution. This petition was moved...

D.K. Kapur, J.1. This is an application under section 256(2) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, claiming that a question of law arises out of the Tribunal's order. The question claimed is as follows : 'Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was legally correct in holding that the assessed was entitled to the exemption claimed under section 23(3) ?' 2. The Tribunal had refused to make a reference under section 256(1) on the ground that in a similar case of Shri K. K. Jhalani, it had been held that the exemption was to be given and, it appears, that the decision of the Tribunal holding that no question of law arose was confirmed by a Bench of this court in I.T.C.
