Reported in: 33(1987)DLT55

M.K. Chawla, J. 1. The learned counsel for the appellants has not challenged the correctness of the finding of fact by which the appellants were convicted under Section 324 read with Section 34 I.P.C. and sentenced toundergo R I. for a period of 11/2 years and a fine of Rs. 200/- each. In default of payment of fine, they were further directed to undergo R.I. for 3 months The only submission is that a lenient view in the matter of sentence be taken inasmuch as the appellants have already suffered the agony of protracted trial of 2 years as well as the hearing of appeal after 11 years. 2. The submission of the learned counsel has much substance. PW-2 Laxmi Chand is the injured. He has given in minute details the part played by the accused persons in causing injuries to him, his wife and another person, with sharp-edged weapon. Originally, there were four accused charged with the commission of offences under Sections 307/326/324/452 I.P.C. read with Section 34 I.P.C. As per the case of th...

Reported in: I(1987)ACC566

S.B. Wad, J.1. This appeal is filed by the father of the deceased Shish Ram, mother Jaimala Devi and sister Km. Saraswati, as the Tribunal had dismissed their claim petition. While dismissing the petition the Tribunal had also worked out as to how much will be dependency of the claimants on the deceased. The Tribunal had come to the conclusion that Rs. 24,900/- would be the adequate compensation, in this case. For this purpose the Tribunal had assumed that the deceased would have earned Rs. 600/- per month after three years of this service. The Tribunal had also accepted ten as multiplier considering the fact that the father was 65 years and mother was 55 years of age. The Tribunal rejected the claim on the ground that it was not proved by the appellants 1 and 2 that they were the parents of the deceased, although no issue was claimed by the respondent or framed by the Tribunal.2.

Annapurna Glass Works (P) Ltd. Vs. Collector of C. Ex.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: Apr-24-1987

Reported in: (1989)(41)ELT655aTriDel

1. These ten appeals involve identical issues, arise out of a common order-in-appeal and relate to the same appellants. There are, therefore, disposed of by this common order.2. The appellants are not represented today. In their letter dated 20.4.1987, they have sent written submissions for our consideration and have requested for disposal of their appeals on merits in their absence. Accordingly, we have heard the learned representative of the department and considered the record and the written submissions of the appellants.3. On careful consideration of the matter, we find that apart from the price of the goods stated in their regular invoices, the appellants recovered certain extra charges from their customers through separate bills. In the price lists submitted by the appellants for approval of the competent Central Excise Authority in advance, the appellants had not disclosed these extra charges. This was, therefore, clearly a case of suppression on their part and hence covered b...

Srinivasa Metal Industries Vs. Collector of Central Excise

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: Apr-24-1987

Reported in: (1987)(13)ECC1

1. This appeal has been dismissed for default by order No. 322/86-B1 dated 5-6-1986, under Rule 20 of the Customs, Excise and Gold (Control) Appellate Tribunal (Procedure) Rules 1982. The appellants have now applied for restoration of their appeal, submitting that there had been no wilful negligence by them when they did not appear on 5-6-1986. They say they are quite serious about the appeal but due to illness they were not able to engage an advocate in time and entrust the case to him to represent them. They also had difficulty in getting a train ticket, it being summer season.2. Considering all facts and circumstances, we restored the appeal to its original number and prolceeded to hear it.3. On behalf of M/s Srinivasa Metal Industries, Mr. Rao's main point was that the circles were cut from duty paid aluminium strips, and since circles and strips fell in the same sub-item, no duty would be leviable on the circles. Furthermore, the circles came into being only as intermediate forms...

Basti Sugar Mills Co. Ltd. Vs. Income-tax Officer

Court: Income Tax Appellate Tribunal ITAT Delhi

Decided on: Apr-23-1987

Reported in: (1987)22ITD246(Delhi)

1. This appeal by the assessee-company is against the order of the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) upholding penalty under Section 27l(l)(c) of the Income-tax Act for the assessment year 1974-75. The brief facts are : That the assessee had filed a return showing an income of Rs. 13.38 lacs without adjustment of brought forward losses of earlier years. The assessment was made on an income of Rs. 61.25 lacs. After the appeal before the Tribunal the income for this year was assessed at Rs. 16.70 lacs but this was subject to the brought forward losses. If the brought forward losses were to be adjusted, it would result in a net loss of Rs. 11.66 lacs to be carried forward.2. The Income-tax Officer initiated proceedings under Section 271(l)(c) and the present penalty order has been passed imposing penalty of Rs. 1,06,670, which, according to the Income-tax Officer, was the tax sought to be evaded on the concealed income of Rs. 1,84,711. The particulars of the income held to be conceale...

Calcutta Steel Industries and Vs. Collector of Central Excise

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: Apr-22-1987

Reported in: (1987)(13)ECC46

1. The dispute in these cases is about the hot rolled products less than 3 mm in thickness and less than 75 mm in width assessed by the Assistant Collector of Central Excise, Patiala as hoops under tariff item No. 26AA(ii); the manufacturers had asked for their classification as bars under Tariff Item No. 26AA(ia).2. The Collector (Appeals) wrote an excellent order in which all the points of dispute have been discussed thoroughly; it is hardly necessary to go anywhere else to understand the dispute. By his order No. 126 to H4-CE/CHG/85, dated 23-2-1985 he approved the assessment made by the Assistant Collector and ruled that the products were assessable as hoops. He was fair enough however, to record that at the relevant time there was no definition in the tariff for different iron and steel products and, therefore, the issue in question would have to be decided by taking into account the meaning of these terms as they were understood in the trade, although he said that it was clear f...
