The 'Army Reserve' consists of time-expired regular soldiers who are on its strength by reason of the terms of their enlistment or by re-engagement.

Wholesale cash price

Wholesale cash price, there can be no doubt that the 'wholesale cash price' has to be ascertained only on the basis of transactions at arms length. If there is a special or favoured buyer to whom a special low price is charged because of extra-commercial considerations, e.g. because he is relative of the manufacturer, the price charged for those sales would not be the 'wholesale cash price' for levying excise under s. 4(a) of the Act, A.K. Roy v. Voltas Limited, AIR 1973 SC 225 (228): (1973) 3 SCC 503: (1973) 2 SCR 1089.

That would be the wholesale cash price for which the goods are sold at the factory-gate within the meaning of s. 4(a), A...
