Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Nov-28-1963

Reported in: [1964]15STC57(Kar)

ORDERHegde, J.1. The question for decision in these cases is whether the Mysore Sales Tax Appellate Tribunal, Bangalore, has correctly interpreted the scope of section 5(4) of the Mysore Sales Tax Act, 1957, (to be hereinafter referred to as the 'Act'). 2.

No. 28 of 63 relates to their assessment to sales tax for the year ended 31st March, 1960. The dispute between the parties is whether the transactions impugned in these proceedings are 'purchases' exigible to tax under section 5(4) of the 'Act'. In order that those transactions may be exigible to tax for the half year ended 31st March, 1958, they should be 'last purchases', and for the year ended 31st March, 1960, they should be 'first purchases'.
