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.

The term is usually applied to the giving up of a lease before the expiration of it: it generally means the giving up of a lesser estate to a greater; a release is the giving up of a greater to a less interest, enlarging the latter.The effect of a surrender is to pass and merge the estate of the surrender or to, and into, that of the surrenderee.By the combined operation of s. 3 of the Statute of Frauds, and the (English) Real Property Act, 1845, s. 3, now replaced by ss. 51 to 55 of the (English) Law of Property Act 1925, every express surrender must be in writing, and every express surrender of a more than three years' term must be by deed. As to surrenders of leases by mortgagors or mortgagees, in possession, see s. 100, (English) L.P. Act, 1925. But there may be an implied surrender or, as it is called in the Statute of Frauds, a surrender 'by act a...
