Salami
Salami, 'salami' is a single payment made for the acquisition of the right of the lessor by the lessee to enjoy the benefits granted to him by the lease. That general right may properly be regarded as a capital asset and the money paid to purchase it may properly be held to be a payment on capital account, Maharaja Chintamani Saran Nath Sah Deo v. CIT, AIR 1972 SC 80 (81): (1971) 2 SCC 521: (1972) 1 SCR 36.'Salami' is defined as; 'a free gift by way of compliment or in return of a favour'. Salami is a payment by the tenant as a present or as price for parting by the landlord with his rights under the lease of a holding. It is a lump sum payment as consideration for what the landlord transfers to the tenant, Member for the Board of Agricultural Income Tax v. Sindhurani Chaudhurani, AIR 1957 SC 729 (733): (1955) SCALE 772: 1957 ITR 169.Salami, are (i) its single non-recurring character; and (ii) payment prior to the creation of the tenancy.

Accumulation
Accumulation, a gathering together, heaping up, or amassing. The dominion over property, and its rents, issues, and profits, is restrained by our law as regards perpetuity and accumulation. See PERPETUITY.The prospective accumulation of income of real or personal estate is restrained by the (English) Law of Property Act, 1925, s. 164, replacing with amendments the (English) Accumulations Act, 1800 (39 & 40 Geo. 3, c. 98); commonly called 'The (English) Thellusson Act,' because the case of Thellusson v. Woodford, 4 Ves 227-343, 1798; and 11 Ves 112-151, 1805 was the occasion of its enactment. The (English) Act of 1925 declares that no person shall by any instrument or otherwise settle or dispose of any property, in such manner that the income thereof shall be accumulated for any longer term than--(1) The life of the grantor or settlor;(2) 21 years from the death of the grantor or settlor, or testator;(3) During the minority of any person who shall be living on en ventre sa mere at the t...
Capital
Capital [fr. Capitalis; caput, Lat.]. The corpus of property of any description which may or may not be the source of a periodical or other return (fructus, produce or income). The word 'capital' when employed in Company Law is used in different senses. Nominal capital is the capital of a company so stated for the purposes of division into shares. It implies nothing more than that the company is possessed of money or assets of a stated value at the company's own valuation which may be, and often is, exaggerated or illusory. Working capital means the amount employable for the purposes of a company or any other undertaking or business. See ALTERATION OF CAPITAL, COMPANY, PROSPECTUS, DIRECTORS. In the Settled Land Act, 1925, capital money arising under the Act means capital money arising under the powers or provisions of that Act or Acts which it replaces, receivable for the purposes of a settlement and includes securities representing capital money. Elaborate provisions are contained in ...
Settled land
Settled land. For the purposes of the (English) Settled Land Acts, 1882-1890, 'settled land' meant land, and any estate and interest therein, which was the subject of a settlement; and 'settlement' meant any instrument, or any number of instruments, under which any land, or any estate or interest in land, 'stands for the time being limited to or in trust for any persons by way of succession' (Settled Land Act, 1882, s. 2) (see infra for the statutory definitions in the Settled Land Act, 1925, which has repealed the S.L. Acts, 1882-1890). Where the settlement consists of more instruments than one it is commonly called a 'compound settlement,' though this term is not defined in the Acts themselves; as to compound settlements, see Re Du Cane & Nettlefold, (1898) 2 Ch 96; Re Munday & Roper, (1899) 1Ch 275; Re Lord Wimborne & Browne (1904) 1 Ch 537; Wolstenholme & Cherry, Conveyancing, etc., Acts.Prior to 1856 settled estates could not be sold or leased except under the authority of some po...
Money land
Money land. In equity, land articled or devised to be sold, and turned into money, is considered as money, and money articled or bequeathed to be invested in land, has, inequity, many of the qualities of real estate, and is descendible and devisable as such according to the rules of inheritance in other cases, and this upon the ground that equity regards substance and not form, and will further the intention of parties.By s. 75(5), (English) Settled Land Act, 1925, replacing Settled Land Act, 1882, s. 26 (5), capital money arising under that Act while remaining uninvested or unapplied and investments hereof are for all purposes of disposition, transmission and devolution to be treated as land and shall be held for and go to the same persons successively in the same manner and for and on the same estates, interests and trusts as the land wherefrom the money arises would, if not disposed of, have been held and have gone under the settlement, and see s. 78 (ibid.), as to personal estate s...
Annuity
Annuity, in order to constitute an annuity, the payment to be made periodically should be a fixed or predetermined one, and it should not be liable to any variation depending upon or on any ground relating to the general income of the fund or estate which is charged for such payment, CWT v. P. K. Banerjee, (1981) 1 SCC 63 (75): AIR 1981 SC 401. [Wealth-Tax Act, 1957, s. 2(e)(1)(iv)]It is a right to receive a specified sum and not an aliquot share in the income arising from any fund or property. Ordinarily an annuity is a money payment of a fixed sum annually made and is a charge personally on the grantor, CWT v. Arundhati Balkrishna, (1970) 1 SCC 561 (565): AIR 1971 SC 915. [Wealth Tax Act, 1957, s. 2(e)(iv)]An annuity is a fixed sum payable annually either in perpetuity or for any less period. When charged upon land either freehold or leasehold both, exclusively of purely personal estate, it is strictly a rent charge; see (English) Real Property Limitation Act, 1833 (3 & 4 Will. 4, c....
Trust for sale
Trust for sale. Trusts for sale of land were commonly crated in settlements and well-drawn wills. The effect was to convert realty into personalty so that the proceeds devolved upon the beneficiaries as personalty unless they elected to take the property as realty (see CONVERSION), except that upon a lapse of the devise of realty in the testator's lifetime the property resulted to the heir-at-law, Ackroyd v. Smithson, (1780) 1 Bro CC 503. Another and more practical consequence was that the whole estate was vested as a rule in the trustees so that with or without consent of any other person as directed by the donor or testator they could vest the whole estate in a purchaser without his seeing to the application of the purchase money (Trustee Act, 1893, s. 14), and without participation of beneficiaries whose consent was not required, thus providing an expedient, which, together with the Settled Land Acts and other statutes giving analogous powers to mortgagees, personal representatives ...
Interest
Interest, an interest for the purposes of the regula-tion was not limited to a direct financial interest and included membership of a panel such as the panel of which the claimant's solicitors were members that, therefore, the Claimant's Solicitors had had an interest in recommending the insurance which they recommend to her; that, in the circumstances, there had not been sufficient disclosure of that interest; and that, accordingly, there had been a material breach of regulation 4(2)(e)(ii) and the conditional fee agreement was unenforceable [See (English) Conditional Fee Agreements Regulation, 2000 (SI 2000/692), reg. 4(2)(c)(e)(ii)], Garrett v. Halton BC, (2007) 1 WLR 554 CA Cir.Interest, inter alia as the compensation fixed by agreement or allowed by law for the use or detention of money, or for the loss of money by one who is entitled to its use; especially, the amount owed to a lender in return for the use of the borrowed money [Black's Law Dictionary (7th Edn.) pp. 393-94 para 3...
