1 to 4. [These paras are not reproduced here as they involve minor issues.] 5. Grounds numbered 3, 4, 5 and 6 relate to grievance of the assessee that the assessment is barred by limitation under section 153(1)(c) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 and the CIT (Appeals) was wrong in giving a finding that the assessment order was passed within the time prescribed under the statute. In order to appreciate the facts more clearly we reproduce the grounds hereunder : "3. That the CIT (Appeals)-VI should have held that the assessment order is barred by limitation inasmuch as per the provisions of section 153(1)(c) of the Income-tax Act, the Assessing Officer has to pass the order within one year from the date of filing of the Revised Return; 4. That the learned CIT (Appeals)-VI failed to appreciate that the Revised Return having been filed by the appellant on 27-3-1989 was not a valid revised return in view of the Hon'ble Rajasthan High Court (decision) in the case of Vimalchand v.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Jun-27-1997

Reported in: AIR1997Cal386

1. This appeal is against a judgment of affirmance in a suit for eviction. The respondent, as a plaintiff, instituted the suit against the predecessor in interest of the appellants for eviction from the premises as fully described in the schedule of the plaint on the grounds of bona fide requirement, subletting and violation of Sections 108(m)(o)(p) of the Transfer or Property Act.2. So far as the ground of bona fide requirement is concerned, it appears that during the pendency of this appeal, an application for taking into consideration of subsequent events has been filed at the instance of the appellant to which affidavit in opposition and affidavit in reply have also been filed by the parlies. When some argument was advanced by the learned counsel for the parlies on the question of bona fide requirement, an affidavit was filed by the plaintiff/respondent from which it appears that the plaintiff/respondent docs not press ground of bona fide requirement.

No. 189 of 1995.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Jun-20-1997

Reported in: (1997)2CALLT420(HC)

ORDER1. On the ground that the company is unable to pay its debts, the petitioning creditor has applied for winding up of the company. In support of its case, the petitioning creditor relies on deemed inability of the company to pay its debts.2. The statutory notice issued in this case, was met by an answer to the effect that the company is forwarding the same to its solicitor with its file of papers to reply the same, which reply did not come into existence.3. The statutory presumption of inability is rebuttable. We will, therefore, have to see whether such presumption has been rebutted in the affidavit filed by the company. In the matter of finding out the same, it is not necessary that we must satisfy to the hilt that the presumption has been squarely rebutted; all that we are required to look at is to find out whether the company has been able to make out a possible defence to the monetary claim of the petitioning creditor. In doing so, we have only to see whether an issue of fact ...

Reported in: 1997(96)ELT250(Cal)

ORDERVinod Kumar Gupta, J.1. The only grievance of the petitioner is that the petitioner's claim for receiving drawback under the Customs & Central Excise Duties Drawback Rules, 1995, despite pending for a long time, has not been disposed of by the respondents with the result that the petitioner has been suffering undue hardship on account of non-action on the part of the respondents.2. Mr. Samaddar, learned Advocate for the respondents, submits that it is a fact that the petitioner's claim has been pending with the respondents.3.
