Somnath Iyer, J. 1. The source of these three revision petitions is a best judgment assessment of the turnover under section 12(3) of the Mysore Sales Tax Act, 1957, when the petitioner who operates a soda factory at Udipi did not produce a return. He contended that his turnover was less than Rs. 7,500 a year, and so had no duty to produce a return of his turnover. 2.

Reported in: [1968]22STC55(Kar)

ORDERSomnath Iyer, J. 1. These two revision petitions presented under section 23 of the Mysore Sales Tax Act, 1957, involve the interpretation of sections 20 and 22 of the Act, as they stood before their amendment by the Mysore Sales Tax (Amendment) Act, 1963 (Mysore Act No. 9 of 1964). This is how the question arises. 2. In respect of the sales of declared goods by the petitioner, the Commercial Tax Officer assessed the turnover in respect of the assessment years 1958-59 and 1959-60. There was a claim by the petitioner for a refund under the first proviso to section 5(4) of the Act, which directs the refund of the tax paid in respect of the sale or purchase of declared goods which are subsequently sold in the course of inter-State trade or commerce. The refunds, according to the petitioner, were refused by the Commercial Tax Officer and so, he appealed to the Deputy Commissioner under section 20.
