Jai Kumar Kankaria Vs. Commissioner of Income-tax and ors.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Dec-14-2000

Reported in: [2001]251ITR707(Cal)

Kalyan Jyoti Sengupta, J. 1. In this matter I do not find on record any affidavit-in-opposition. However, Mr. Shome has shown me a copy of the same. He cannot say as to whether the same has been filed in the Department or not. Dr. Pal upon instruction says that no copy of such affidavit-in-opposition has been served upon the learned advocate-on-record of his client. Anyway, when the copy is made available to the court, it would be prudent for the court to take note of it forgetting the procedural aspect. So, a copy thereof is to be kept on record. 2. In this matter, the point is very simple, as to whether the withdrawal of recognition granted to the Secretary, Society for Integral Development programme, under Section 35CCA of the Income-tax Act, 1961, in the case of donation to the aforesaid institution is permissible with retrospective effect or not. 3. The writ petitioner's case is that pursuant to the approval granted by the income-tax authorities the writ petitioner donated a sum o...

Sahana Mukherjee Vs. Union Bank of India and ors.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Dec-12-2000

Reported in: (2001)166CTR(Cal)532

K.J. Sengupta, J.In view of the order passed by me in the previous writ petition being No. W.P. 6819(W)/99 (Prabir Kumar Mukherjee v. Union Bank of India & Ors. (2001) 21 DTC 591 (Cal-HC)). I am of the view that recovery of the amount in this matter under section 226(3) has become unwarranted under the law. Admittedly there is no due against the writ petitioner. On account of the alleged dues of her father the amount in question in this writ petition has been withdrawn from the joint account. I, hold that the steps taken by the respondents in this matter is not justified under the law. Accordingly, I direct the respondent-authority to refund a sum of Rs. 9,623 together with interest at the rate of 12 per cent per annum which shall be calculated from the date of withdrawal. However, the aforesaid amount after receipt shall be kept in a short-term fixed deposit not less than the period of six months. The aforesaid fixed deposit shall not be encashed before three months from date. In the ...
