Yusuf I.A. Lalji Vs. Abdullabhoy Lalji (No. 2)

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Apr-04-1929

Reported in: AIR1930Bom362; (1930)32BOMLR667

Rangnekar, J.1. In this case, by consent of the parties an order was made on Daosmbar 11. 1928, authorising the receiver in the suit to pay the sum of Rs. 40,000 to defendant No. 13. Defendants Nos. 4A, 4B, and 6 thereafter appeared before me in chambers and applied for setting aside that order on the ground that the order was obtained on certain false representations and promises. The application was dismissed by me on the ground that it was a consent order and could not be set aside except by 1 proceedings properly framed for that relief.

The Fibre Aloes Factory Vs. Jaffer Rasool

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Apr-03-1929

Reported in: (1929)31BOMLR1059; 121Ind.Cas.577

Amberson Marten, Kt., C.J.1. This is an appeal under Section 30 of the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1923, against the judgment of the Commissioner dated September 22, 1927, awarding compensation to the respondent. There are two grounds urged before us. One is that the appellant, the Fibre Aloes Factory by the proprietor Amratlal Amarchand had not contracted under Section 2(1) 'for the execution by...the contractor of...work which is ordinarily part of the trade or business of the principal,' and that the Commissioner wrongly construed the agreement Exhibit 11 as creating the relationship of principal and contractor between the appellants and one Ahmed Ismail. As regards that point we are satisfied that the learned Commissioner was correct in thinking that the agreement comes within Section 12(1). Whether as regards the land in suit the agreement also amounted to a lease as argued by the appellants is in our opinion immaterial. That being so, the appellants are liable to pay compensation...
