Glass ware

Glass ware, the dictionary meaning of the expres-sion 'glass ware' is 'articles made of glass' (see WEBSTER'S NEW WORLD DICTIONARY).However, in commercial sense glass ware would never comprise articles like clinical syringes, thermometers, lectometers, and the like which have specialised significance and utility. In popular or commercial parlance a general merchant dealing in 'glass ware' does not ordinarily deal in articles like clinical syringes, thermometers, medical stores or with the manufacturers thereof like the assessee. It is equally unlikely that consumer would ask for such articles from a glass ware shop. In popular sense when one talks of glass ware such specialised articles like clinical syringes, thermometer, lectometers and the like do not come up to ones mind, Indo International Industries v. Commissioner of Sales Tax, AIR 1981 SC 1079 (1081): (1981) 2 SCC 528: (1981) 3 SCR 294. [U.P. Sales Tax, (15 of 1948)]...

Assembly

Assembly, the expression 'assembly' in the context and setting in which it has been used cannot be construed to mean bringing into of a new article. This expression cannot be equated with the expression 'manufacture', Shriram Vinyl and Chemical Industries v. Commissioner of Customs, AIR 2001 SC 1283 (1284): (2001) 4 SCC 286. [Customs Act, 1962 s. 25(1)]Means a group of persons organized and united for some common purpose, Black Law Dictionary 7th Edn., p. 111....


Constituent power

Constituent power, the expression 'constituent power' is used to describe only the nature of the power of amendment. Every amending power, however large or however small it might be, is a facet of a constituent power. The power, though described to be 'constituent power', still continues to be any 'amending power'. The scope and ambit of the power is essentially contained in the word 'amendment'. Hence, from the fact that the new Article specifically refers to that power as a constituent power, it cannot be understood that the contents of the power have undergone any change, Kesavananda Bharati v. State of Kerala, (1973) 4 SCC 225 (488): AIR 1973 SC 1461. [Constitution (Twenty Fourth) Amendment Act, 1971, s. 3(b)]...


Processing

Processing, in common parlance 'processing' is understood as an action which brings forth some change or alteration of the goods or material which is subjected to the act of processing. 'What is necessary in order to characterise an operation as 'processing' is that the commodity must, as a result of the operation, experience some change' (See Chowgule & Co. Pvt. Ltd. v. Union of India, 1981 (1) SCC 653: AIR 1981 SC 1014). In a cold storage, vegetables, fruits and several other articles which requires preservation by refrigeration are stored. While as a result of long storage, Scientific examination might indicate loss of moisture content that is not sufficient for holding that the stored articles have undergone a process, Delhi Cold Storage Pvt. Ltd. v. Commissioner of Income Tax, New Delhi, AIR 1991 SC 2125.Processing, include the preservation of such products as canning, freezing drying, salting, smoking, peeling or filleting etc., Regional Executive, Kerala Fishermen's Welfare Fund...


Letters-patent, or letters overt

Letters-patent, or letters overt [fr. liter' patentes, Lat.], writings of the sovereign, sealed with the Great Seal of England, whereby a person or public company is enabled to do acts or enjoy privileges which he or it could not do or enjoy without such authority. They are so called because they are open with the seal affixed and ready to be shown for confirmation of the authority thereby given. Peers are sometimes created by letters-patent, and letters-patent of precedence were granted to barristers. By letters-patent aliens are made denizens, and especially new inventions are protected; hence the incorporeal chattel of patent-right.A 'patent-right' is a privilege granted by the Crown to the first inventor of any new contrivance in manufactures, that he alone shall be entitled, during a limited period, to make Articles according to his own invention--Statute of Monopolies, 21 Jac. 1, c. 3.To be the subject of a patent-right an article must be material and capable of manufacture, an i...


Scheduled caste

Scheduled caste, article 341 makes it clear that a 'Scheduled Caste' need not be a 'caste' in the conventional sense and, therefore, may not be a caste within the meaning of Article 15(2) or 16(2). Scheduled Castes become such only if the President specifies any castes, races or tribes or parts or groups within castes, races or tribes for the purpose of the Constitution. So, a group or a s. of a group, which need not be a caste and may even be a hotchpotch of many castes or tribes or even races, may still be a Scheduled Caste under Article 341. Likewise, races or tribal communities or parts thereof or part or parts of groups within them may still be Scheduled Tribes (Article 342) for the purpose of the Constitution. Under this definition, one group in a caste may be a Scheduled Caste and another from the same caste may not be. It is the socio-economic backwardness of a social bracket, not mere birth in a caste, that is decisive. Conceptual errors creep in when traditional obsessions ob...
