National Insurance Co. Ltd. and anr. Vs. Union of India (Uoi)

Court: Guwahati

Decided on: Aug-02-1989

B.L. Hansaria, J. 1. A nationalised insurance company is fighting a wing of the Government, the Railways, to realise its dues about which there is no dispute. It is an admitted position that out of 1680 pieces of brass tubes costing about Rs. 5,68,000/-, 178 pieces of brass tubes were not delivered to the consignee who is the Assam State Electricity Board, plaintiff No. 2. The short delivery being an admitted position, the Railways have taken recourse to the technicalities to defeat the just claim of the insurer, plaintiff No. 1, which had to pay the price of the goods short delivered to the Electricity Board pursuant to an agreement entered into between them. As it is technicalities on which ground the plaintiffs have lost at the hands of the trial court, Mr. Sharma has, at the threshold, brought to our notice certain observations made in Hindustan Sugar Mills v. State of Rajasthan AIR 1981 SC 1681, wherein the Apex Court stated that the Central Government should honour its legal obl...

Decided on: Aug-01-1989

The occasion for approaching this court was the issue of notice to the legal representatives by the Tax Recovery Officer, Dibrugarh, to pay the dues. The contention, in all these writ petitions, is that as all the legal representatives of the late Israil Khan, who are said to be 10 in number, were not served with notices Under Section 143 of the Income-tax Act (hereinafter 'the Act'), the assessments were null and void and no payment could be demanded on the basis of such assessment orders. 2. In so far as the factual aspect of the case is concerned, it may be stated that the late Israil Khan died on September 24, 1971, and was governed by the Sunni School of Mohammadan law. It is also an admitted position that in all the proceedings, one wife and three sons of the late Israil ...
