ORDERKumar Rajaratnam, C.J.1. In both the appeals, the short but interesting question that arises for consideration is whether an employee, who has been terminated from service, can raise a dispute beyond the period of 30 days by filing an application for condonation of delay under the provisions of the Indian Limitation Act before the Registrar under the provisions of the Madhya Pradesh/Chhattisgarh Cooperative Societies Act, 1960 (hereinafter referred to as the 'Act').2. The learned Single Judge was of the view that there is no power for Registrar of Co-operative Societies to condone any delay, wherein employee raises a dispute under Section 55 of the Act since the section itself provides for the period of limitation. Section 55 of the Act reads as under:-- '55.

Dipak Misra, J.1. This is an application under Section 256(2) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (for brevity 'the Act'), by the Revenue. The assessee-company filed its return on December 31, 1992, declaring its income to Rs. 26,66,355 for the assessment year 1992-93. The Assessing Officer completed the assessment on March 10, 1995, under Section 143(3) of the Act at a total income of Rs. 35,40,414.

Reported in: IV(2005)ACC743

R.B. Dixit, J.1. The learned First Additional Claims Tribunal, Morena in Claim Case No. 136 of 1998 by imugned award dated 17.9.1998, has awarded Rs. 4,16,976, as compensation for the death of the deceased Kamta Prasad, who was L.I.C. agent and was aged 28 years at the time of accident.2. The only contention of the learned Counsel of the appellants is that the learned Claims Tribunal has erred in calculating the amount of expenses incurred by the deceased in his capacity as L.I.C. agent. It is urged that there is no evidence regarding any of his expenses to the extent of Rs. 6,600 and the amount of incentive as Rs. 12,000 of policy-holders. However, the learned Counsel of the respondent No. 3, on the other hand has contended that the expense of Rs. 100 per day was admitted by the wife of the deceased. The learned Claims Tribunal has calculated this expense only for 200 days in a year. In our opinion, since there is no evidence in rebuttal insofar as expense of Rs. 100 per day by the de...
