income-tax Officer, New Delhi Vs. T. R. Subramonia Iyer and Others.

Court: Kerala

Decided on: Aug-09-1962

Reported in: [1963]48ITR985(Ker)

This appeal is by the Income-tax Officer, New Delhi, the first respondent in an original petition moved under article 226 of the Constitution by the first respondent in this appeal and challenged the order allowing the original petition to some extent.The question involved is whether the appellant is entitled to proceed under section 46 of the Income-tax Act against the assets of the first respondent for tax assessed on him for the year of assessment 1943-44. Section 46(7) provides that action under that section should be taken within an year of the last date of the financial year in which the demand was made. The demand was in the year 1943-44 and hence action should have been taken before March 31, 1945. Proceedings, however, were started only in 1950. Reliance is placed on the proviso to section 42(1).

Mathew, J. 1. Defendants 2 and 4 are the appellants. This second Appeal has been referred to the Division Bench as the learned Single Judge before whom it came up for Hearing felt some doubts about the correctness of some of the rulings of this Court relating to the point under consideration. The short point which arises in this Second Appeal is whether the transaction evidenced by Ext. A-1, a karchit executed by the grantee to the grantor and Ext. B-1 a Kaivasapanayam executed by the grantor to the grantee, is a mortgage, or a kanam as defined in Act IV of 1961 (Kerala). The learned Munsiff held that it was a kanam and therefore decreed the suit only in respect of arrears of rent claimed.

This Second Appeal is, therefore, filed challenging the decision of the learned subordinate Judge. 2. The material prov...
