Double taxation
Double taxation, The expression 'double taxation' is often used in different senses, namely, in its strict legal sense of direct double taxation and in its popular sense of indirect double taxation. Double taxation in the strict legal sense means taxing the same property or subject matter twice, for the same purpose, for the same period and in the same territory. To constitute double taxation, the two or more taxes must have been (1) levied on the same property or subject matter, (2) by the same government or authority, (3) during the same taxing period, and (4) for the same purpose, Sri Krishna Das v. Town Area Committee, (1990) 3 SCC 645: AIR 1991 SC 2096. (Income-tax Act, 1961, s. 4)See also C.I.T. v. P.V.A.L.

Double complaint, or Double quarrel
Double complaint, or Double quarrel, duplex querela, a grievance made known by a clerk or other person, to the archbishop of the province, against the ordinary, for delaying or refusing to do justice in some cause ecclesiastical, as to give sentence, or institute a clerk, as in the celebrated case of Gorham v. Bishop of Exeter, (1850) 19 LJ Ex 376, CP 200, QB 279, in which the plaintiff, a clerk, succeeded on appeal in duplex querela against the defendant for not instituting him on the ground of alleged unorthodox views on Baptism, etc. It is termed a double complaint, because it is most commonly made against both the judge and him at whose suit justice is denied or delayed; and by Canon 95 the period of two months which the bishop had to inquire of the sufficiency of a clerk was abridged to twenty-eight days, before the expiration of which a duplex querela could not be brought....
Double insurance
Double insurance takes place when the assured makes two or more insurances on the same subject, the same risk, and the same interest. The assured may recover the amount of his actual loss against any of the insurers, but nothing beyond this, and if he obtains full satisfaction from one of the assurers, the latter is entitled to contribution from the others. Excess of indemnity received by the assured is held by him in trust for the assurers. Double insurance is therefore entirely different from re-insurance, which is effected by the underwriter to secure himself from a loss. Double insurances are not prohibited by the law maritime unless fradulently made; see Arnould on Marine Insurance, 8th Edn. P. 430; the Marine Insurance Act, 1906, ss. 32, 80; Newby v. Reid, (1763) 1 W Bl 416.Double insurance is prohibited under the (English) National Health Insurance, Old Age, and Widows, etc., (English) Contributory Pensions Act, 1936....

Cloth manufactured by mills
Cloth manufactured by mills, cloth has been divided broadly into two categories, mill made and loom made. The loom made cloth would include all cloth manufactured on looms. The energy by which the looms are worked would not make any difference.

As regard mill made cloth the actual process of weaving is more or less automatic, pre-conceived and definite and it involves the functioning of machinery, Sales Tax Commissioner v. Ladha Singh Mal Singh, (1971) Supp SCR 941: AIR 1971 SC 2221: (1971) 2 SCC 407. [U.P. Sales Tax Act (15 of 1948), s. 3A]...
