V.S. Kotwal, J.1. Heard learned Counsel for both the sides.2. Perused the relevant papers.3. 'Dharam Kanta' symbolises the 'scale of justice'. However, the irony is that the producer of the film 'Dharam Kanta' has himself to knock the doors of the Court to get justice. The said film is produced by the second respondent herein who is original complainant and who enjoys a wide reputation in the film world as a renowned Producer and Director of celluloid films and there are several of such highly acclaimed films to his credit. He produced this film in the year 1980-81 with an imposing star-cast and also with an equally imposing grandeur. The first petitioner is a registered partnership firm carrying on the business at Calcutta while the second and third petitioners who are the husband and wife are the partners of the said firm. It is in relation to the said film that certain disputes ultimately obliged the respondent-complainant to file a criminal complaint in the Court of the learned Add...

Shakti Metal Industries Vs. the Union of India (Uoi) and ors.

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Jan-12-1989

Reported in: 1989(22)LC640(Bombay)

S.K. Desai, Ag. C.J.1. In this appeal, the order of the learned single Judge dated 20th April, 1988 stands impugned. As we understand this order the learned single Judge has formed a view that the petitioners' have not paid the countervailing duty on the entire raw material used by the petitioners. In view of the rather loose phraseology employed in the petition particularly in para 9(k), we cannot say that the learned Judge is in any error. Even otherwise it appears from Exhibit 'F' that only certain' information is being sought from the petitioners. We are sure that if the petitioners show and demonstrate that the necessary duty has been paid on the entire raw material used by the petitioners either imported by them or' brought from the market, they will be entitled to the benefit of the exemption notification. If and when any adverse order is passed against them it would be then open to the petitioners to carry the matter in appeal or to impugn those orders by appropriate writ proce...
