Nyalchand Malukchand Dagli Vs. Commissioner of Income-tax, Gujarat

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Sep-08-1965

Reported in: [1966]62ITR102(Guj)

Bhagwati, J.1. The short question that arises in this reference relates to the validity of a notice issued by the Income-tax Officer under section 34(1) (a) of the Income-tax Act, 1922. In order to appreciate the question, it is necessary to notice briefly the facts giving rise to the reference. On 9th March, 1959, the Income-tax Officer issued a notice under section 34(1) (a) to the assessee reciting : 'Whereas I have reason to believe that your income assessable to income-tax for the year ending 31st of March, 1950, has escaped assessment, I, therefore, propose to reassess the said income that has escaped assessment' and calling upon the assessee to deliver 'within 35 days of the receipt of the notice a return in the attached form of your total income and total world income assessable for the said year ending 31st March, 1950'. There was enclosed in the same envelope along with this notice another notice of the same date headed 'Notice under sections 22(2) and 38 of the Indian Income...

Anil Starch Products Ltd. Vs. Commissioner of Income-tax, Gujarat

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Sep-06-1965

Reported in: [1966]59ITR514(Guj)

Shelat, C.J.1. The main question which arises in this reference is whether the assessee company, while computing profits or gains derived from its newly established industrial undertaking, which are exempt under section 15C(1) of the Income tax Act, 1922, is entitled to claim the actual cost to it rather than the market value of the raw materials manufactured by its existing industrial undertaking and used by the new undertaking. The question arises from the following facts : The assessee is a public limited company originally formed for manufacturing and sale of industrial starch. It started production of starch some time in the year 1939. In the year 1956, the assessee company set up another plant for producing dextrose, a pharmaceutical product, of which starch is the raw material. During the assessment for the assessment year 1960-61, the question arose whether the profits or gains made by the new industrial undertaking established for producing dextrose were exempt under section 1...

Commissioner of Income-tax, Gujarat Vs. L.A. Patel

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Sep-06-1965

Reported in: [1966]60ITR685(Guj)

Bhagwati, J.1. This reference arises out of an assessment made on the assessee as an individual under section 34(1)(a) of the Income-tax Act, 1922. This reference related to the assessment year 1946-47, the relevant account year being the financial year ending 31st March, 1946. During the relevant account year the assessee was serving as a Deputy Engineer in the Public Works Department of the Government of Bombay and that salary drawn by him in that year amounted to Rs. 5,326. The assessee was assessed for the first time for the assessment year 1947-48 and so far as the prior assessment years including the assessment year 1946-47 were concerned, no notice was issued to the assessee under section 22(2) nor did the assessee file any return of his income and no assessment was made on the assessee for those assessment years. It appears that some time after the assessment for the assessment year 1947-48 was completed, the Income-tax Officer received information that the assessee had made la...

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Sep-02-1965

Reported in: (1966)7GLR68

J.M. Shelat, C.J.1. This revision application is concerned with two agricultural lands, hereinafter referred to as Bavalia and Kumbharia lands, situate at Nagwada in Dasada Taluka, District Surendranagar. The litigation in question has had a somewhat chequered career and therefore it becomes necessary to state a few facts in order to appreciate the respective stands taken by the parties.2. The first petitioner is the some of the second petitioner and at all material times formed a point and undivided Hindu family along with one Mohanpuri, the second so of the second petitioner. The two lands in question stood in the revenue records in the name of the second petitioner. Both the properties were barkhali lands and therefore were governed by the Barkhali Abolition Act, 1951.

On May 5, 1950 the first petitioner executed a register...

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Sep-01-1965

Reported in: AIR1965Guj165; [1966]61ITR273(Guj)

Shelat, C.J.1. This reference arises from proceedings taken under section 23A of the Income-tax Act, 1922, in respect of the assessment year 1956-57 of which the previous year is the calender year 1955. 2. The assessee-company is carrying on business as the managing agents of certain companies. It is an undisputed fact that it is a company to which section 23A applies and that it was required under that section to distribute as dividends the whole of its total income after deducting therefrom the amounts permissible under sub-section (1) of that section as its reserves exceed the total paid-up capital. There is also no substantial disagreement with regard to facts from which these proceedings arose.
