Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Feb-16-1994

Reported in: AIR1994MP130

U.L. Bhat, C.J.1. The petitioners in these writ petitions are contractors of different kinds of liquor. They have purchased the privilege of vending liquor in specified shops by offering the highest bid at the auctions conducted for the year 1993-94. On account of the recent general election for the Madhya Pradesh Legislative Assembly, they were required by the Collectors of the respective districts to close the shops and refrain from vending liquor for several days in excess of three days. The petitioners have no grievance about closure of shops for three days. The main relief asked namely to quash the orders has become infructuous. The petitioners have sought two alternative reliefs, namely -- remission of the proportionate licence fees as also proportionate reduction of the minimum gurantee quota of liquor which they are expected to lift from the Government warehouses. On behalf of the respondents, returns have been filed in few of the cases and they are treated as returns in order ...

K.M. Agarwal, J. 1. This is an appeal by the wife against the decree for divorce in favour of the husband on the basis of her alleged admissions in her written statement and on the ground of adultery.2. On 30-8-1990 the respondent filed a petition for divorce under Section 13(1) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, (in short, the 'Act'), against the appellant on the ground of adultery. On the first date of appearance, the appellant appeared with her counsel, but as the Presiding Officer was on leave, she again appeared with her counsel on the next date, i.e. on 12-10-1990 given by the Court Reader and filed her written statement, which contained her alleged admissions and on the basis of which a decree for divorce was granted on 7-12-1990 in her absence, but in the presence of her counsel without recording any statement either of the husband or of the wife or their counsel.

Siremal Burad Vs. Shakuntala Devi Burad

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Feb-16-1994

Reported in: I(1994)DMC643

D.M. Dharmadhikari, J,1. The Matrimonial Court fixed a sum of Rs. 400/- per month as maintenance pendente lite and Rs. 3,500/- as litigation expenses payable to the wife by the applicant/husband herein.2. The learned Counsel appearing for the husband contends that in the absence of specific order of the Court to decide the question of maintenance under Section 24 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 on affidavits the Court below ought to have fixed the case for recording evidence of both the parties on the said question.3. There is, according to the learned Counsel, thus, an error of procedure commited by the Court below.4. The contention advanced criticising the procedure adopted by the Court below is of little substance. The Matrimonial Court is to follow the procedure contained in Code of Civil Procedure as far as possible. The provisions of Section 21 require the Matrimonial Court to adhere to the provisions of Code of Civil Procedure as far as may be possible and in the interest of jus...

Pradeep Kumar Vs. General Manager, Western Railway and 3 ors.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Feb-15-1994

Reported in: II(1995)ACC421

K.M. Aggarwal, J.1. This appeal by the plaintiff is against the dismissal of his suit for damages against the Railway on the ground of non-delivery.2. Certain books worth Rs. 10,700/- as per bill dated 18.4.1986 (Ex. P.2) were alleged to have been sent from Jaipur by Laxmi Book Binding Centre for being delivered to the appellant at Varanasi. The consignment of books was not delivered and, therefore, a suit for recovery of a sum of Rs. 22,500/- was filed by the plaintiff. The suit was resisted, inter alia, on the ground of non-service of notice under Section 78-B of the repealed Indian Railways Act. The objection prevailed and the suit was dismissed. Being aggrieved, the plaintiff has preferred this appeal.3. After having heard the learned Counsel for the appellant, I am of the view that this appeal has no substance and deserves to be dismissed. A perusal of railway receipt dated 18.4.1986 (Ex. P. 1) would show that the consignment was booked on 18.4.1986 by Laxmi Book Binding Centre, J...

Reported in: [1996]220ITR564(MP)

ORDER--Computation of closing stock and profit for relevant year.Held :For the asst. yrs. 1975-76 and 1976-77 the assessing officer made additions to profit disclosed by profit and loss account, on account of under-valuation of closing stock. The assessing officer accepted the valuation of opening stock for the year 1975-76 as shown in profit and loss account. For the year 1976-77, he also made appropriate change because of the enhancement of closing balance for earlier year. This clearly indicates that in computing the value of closing balance and profit for the year 1976-77, the value of opening balance had not been ignored. Moreover the same method as followed by assessee, was adopted for valuation of opening and closing balances. In these circumstances, no question of law arises from Tribunal's order which upheld the order of the assessing officer.Conclusion :The finding of Tribunal that the value of opening stock taken as enhanced in valuing closing stock for earlier year had been...
