Decided on: Oct-30-1995

Reported in: (1996)(81)ELT260TriDel

1. The captioned appeal is directed against the order-in-original passed by the Collector, Central Excise. In the impugned order, the learned Collector had held : "13. Further, the party have submitted that they have been submitting all the requisite information in the RT-12 returns. But on going through the same and all the concerned Range records, I find that the RT-12 returns for the relevant period have been waiting finalisation but for the information in respect of the insurance and freight. Party's defence, inter alia, is that the demand is time barred for the reason that the RT-12 and the Gate Passes have been scrutinised by the Department and that in the gate passes mention of destination of the goods at their Depot at NOIDA has been made. They, therefore, have tried to say that the Department was aware of the system of transport and sales of the goods from NOIDA and nothing has been concealed. It is an admitted fact that the party had made misdeclaration in part-I price list ...

Guru Nanak Refrigeration Corpn. Vs. Collector of C. Ex.

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: Oct-30-1995

Reported in: (1996)LC125Tri(Delhi)

1. M/s. Guru Nanak Refrigeration have filed this captioned appeal being aggrieved by the order of Collector (Appeals). The Collector (Appeals) in his order had held : "I observe that the Assistant Collector in this case had based his order mainly on the fact that wholesale cash price could not be normally less than the cost of manufacture. I also observe that the appellants have not denied that in the instant case the price declared by them was less than the cost of manufacture and have tried only to plead that old Section 4 placed no bar on having a wholesale cash price lesser than the cost of manufacture and have cited Supreme Court Judgment in Voltas case in support of their contention that the wholesale cash price at which the goods were actually sold could only be considered as the assessable value. I consider that the arguments advanced by the appellants are fallacious. Neither the language of old Section 4 nor the ratio of the Supreme Court judgment in Voltas case implies that ...

M.L. Singhal Vs. Pradeep Mathur and anr.

Court: Delhi

Decided on: Oct-30-1995

Reported in: AIR1996Delhi261; ILR1996Delhi106

Usha Mehra, J. (1) It is most unfortunate that the life of plaintiff's wife, Smt. Gayatri Devi had been snatched by the cruel hands, but the question for determination is whose hands were those? Were those of a doctor, attending upon her or of the Supernatural power controlling this universe? If the answer is that those hands were of a doctor then we have to keep in mind that to err is human though all errors are not pardonable nor all errors are deliberate and intentional. ft is only when the error arose out of sheer negligence and carelessness or callous treatment of the patient by the doctor or because of the act of the hospital authority, the aggrieved party would be entitled to claim compensation/damage for having lost the near and dear one. It will thus be called causing death at the cruel hands of that human being the so called doctor. (2) Smt. Gayatri Devi wife .of the plaintiff Sh. M. L. Singhal, died on 21st August, 1978. Plaintiff filed the suit c(3) To appreciate the grieva...
