Reported in: [1984]10ITD35(Cal)

ORDERPer Shri H. S. Ahluwalia, Judicial Member - These three appeals invoke a common issue and are, therefore, disposed of by this single order.2. The dispute in these appeals relates to the assessees liability to be deemed to be an assessee in default and for payment of interest under section 201 (1) and section 201(1A) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (the Act).

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Apr-02-1984

Reported in: [1985]151ITR790(Cal)

Satish Chandra, C.J.1. The State of West Bengal appeals against the judgment of a learned single judge declaring that the West Bengal Entertainment-cum-Amusements Tax Act, 1982, violated Article 301 of the Constitution and was on that ground ultra vires and void.2. The aforesaid Act imposed an annual tax of Rs. 50 per television set, on the holder of the television set. The learned judge below held that television was a form of intercourse within the meaning of Article 301 of the Constitution. The impugned tax impeded the intercourse and thus infringed the free intercourse throughout the territory of India guaranteed by Article 301. The Act was not saved by Article 304.3. At the hearing before the learned single judge, counsel for the parties made their submissions on other points of challenge, namely, that the State legislature lacked competence to enact this statute and that Article 19(1)(a) of the Constitution was violated. The learned judge, however, chose not to express any opinio...
