Vimadalal, J.1. These are references under section 34 of the Bombay Sales Tax Act, 1953, by the applicants who are the manufacturers of a commodity called the Ramtirth Brahmi Oil. Each of these three references relates to a different year, but the question which has been referred to us in the three references is identical, and we must, therefore, proceed to dispose them of by a common judgment. That question is as follows :- 'Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal is justified in law in coming to the conclusion that the Ramtirth Brahmi Oil is a perfumed oil ?' 2. The Sales Tax Authorities have purported to tax the oil in question under entry 39 of Schedule B to the Bombay Sales Tax Act, 1953, which is in the following terms :- '39. Toilet articles except such articles as may be specified by the State Government by notification in the Official Gazette.' 3.

Deshmukh, J.1. This is a creditor's appeal arising out of a petition filed by a debtor for adjudicating himself insolvent under Section 10 of the Provincial Insolvency Act, 1920. At the outset, it must be made clear that this matter is required to be treated as a revision application under law and it is directed that it should be treated as a revision application and an appropriate number be given to it. I would point out that the petitioner had approached this Court by way of a revision application and it is also numbered as such. However, on the view taken by the office, the revision application was renumbered as a second appeal. The present proceeding would be covered by the provisions of Sub-section (1) of Section 75 of the Provincial Insolvency Act, 1920, if at all it should be covered by any provisions of the Provincial Insolvency Act. If the present petitioner-creditor could be held a person aggrieved, then his remedy against the trial Court's order would be in the form of appea...
