Reported in: ILR1993KAR594

K. Shivashankar Bhat, J. 1. Taxability under the provisions of the Karnataka Sales Tax Act, 1957 ('the Act', for short), is the question to be considered in all these petitions.

The State contends that when timber is converted into logs, sizes, etc., a new product emerges and timber is consumed in the manufacture of the new products. Section 6 to the extent relevant to consider the rival contentions read as follows : 'Section 6. Levy of purchase tar under certain circumstances. - Subject to the provisions of sub-section (5) of section 5, every dealer who in the course of his business purchases any taxable goods in circumstances in which no tax under section 5 is leviable...
