Court: Delhi

Decided on: Dec-13-2007

Reported in: 150(2008)DLT545; 2008(100)DRJ742

A.K. Sikri, J.1. Delhi is a place where cost of living as well as cost of construction has been steadily increasing at least in the last 30 years. Last few years have seen an upward trend at feverish pace. For persons with average income, to which category Government employees also belong, it is already becoming difficult to have their own accommodation in Delhi. That day is not far away when it would be impossible for a salaried class employee (excluding those with higher income like top executives in corporate sector) to afford his own house as the residential accommodations are becoming costlier and prices skyrocketing. It has corresponding effect of similar nature on the rentals as well. thereforee, arranging a rental accommodation also is becoming difficult to this middle class. It is one important reason that rent-free accommodation provided by the employer is viewed as the most lucrative perk. As a sequitur, this also becomes reason for perennial litigation between the employer ...

ORDER xviii HEARING OF THE SUIT AND EXAMINATION OF WITNESSES 18. Power of Court to inspectThe Court may at any stage of a suit inspect any property or thing concerning which any question may arise and where the Court inspects any property or thing it shall, as soon as may be practicable, make a memorandum of any relevant facts observed at such inspection and such memorandum shall form a part of the record of the suit.10. I am unable to persuade myself to agree with the submissions of learned Counsel for the respondent. An arbitrator is not bound by the strict parameters of the said code. Apart form this, it has to be seen that the arbitrator is an architect who visited the site and both the petitioner and the respondent would have pointed out as to how the work was defective or had been completed. If the arbitrator makes some nothings for himself, it cannot be said that the same would have to be mandatorily handed over to the respondent-Society since they are in the nature of nothings ...

1. Heard the learned DR on behalf of the Revenue. The respondent filed written submission and requested to decide the matter in their absence.After hearing the learned DR and on perusal of the records, it is seen that the Central Excise Officers during the stock verification detected shortage of inputs and the respondent immediately reversed the credit of Rs. 20,080/-.
