In the manufacture of goods

In the manufacture of goods would normally encompass the entire process carried on by the dealer of converting raw materials into finished goods.

All sorts

All sorts, the words 'all sorts' have been used to make it clear that 'vegetable non-essential oils' whether raw or refined and from whatever raw material produced will be liable to excise duty. Refined oil is one sort; raw oil is another sort, Union of India v. Delhi Cloth and General Mills, AIR 1963 SC 781 (795). [Control Excise and Salt Act, (10 of 1944) Sch. I item 12...


Groundnut oil

Groundnut oil, the processing consists in the non-oily content of the raw oil being separated and removed, rendering the oily content of the oil 100 per cent. For this reason refined oil continues to be groundnut oil within the meaning of rules 5(1)(k) and 18(2) of the Madras General Sales Tax (Turnover and Assessment) Rules, 1939 notwith-standing that such oil does not possess the characteristic colour, or taste, odour, etc. of the raw groundnut oil, Tungabhadra Industries Ltd. v.

Vegetable

Vegetable, 'Vegetables' understood in common parlance are not products of manufacture unless we say that agriculture is an industry for certain purposes and vegetables are products of that industry, Saraswati Sugar Mills v. Haryana State Board, (1992) 1 SCC 418: AIR 1992 SC 224.The word 'vegetables' does not include Pan (betel leaves). Therefore betel leaves are taxable under the provisions of the Act, Ram Bux Chaturbhuj v. State of Rajasthan, AIR 1963 SC 351 (352). [Rajasthan Sales Tax Act, 1954 (29 of 1954), s. 4]Vegetable, cannot be given the comprehensive meaning as it bears in natural history, and it must be construed in popular sense to denote such classes of vegetable matter which are grown in kitchen gardens or in a farm and are used for table, State of West Bengal v.

Rubber

Rubber, rubber is described in the Encyclopaedia Britannica, Volume 19, 1965 edition: Rubber the substance caoutchouc (q.v.), a milklike fluid that is obtained from certain tropical shrubs or tyres and then subjected to various processes of manufacture; or it may be a product of chemical synthesis. The uniqueness of rubber lies in its physical properties of extensibility and toughness. In its natural state, it is greatly affected by temperature, becoming harder when cooled (at 0 x-10 x C it is opaque) and softer when heated (above 50x C it becomes tackier and less elastic, decomposing into liquid form at 190 x-200x C). When vulcanized (i.e. heated with sulfur at 120 x-160 x C) it loses its thermoplasticity and becomes stronger and more elastic..... Chemically, rubber is a polymer of isoprene..... The term synthetic rubber is used to describe an evergrowing number of elastic materials, some of which closely resemble natural rubber while others have completely different physical properti...


Goods

Goods, Computer programs are the product of an intellectual process, but once implanted in a medium they are widely distributed to computer owners. An analogy can be drawn to a compact-disc recording of an orchestral rendition. The music is produced by the artistry of musicians and in itself is not a 'good', but when transferred to a laser-readable disc it becomes a readily merchant-able commodity. Similarly, when a professor deliv-ers a lecture, it is not a good, but, when transcribed as a book, it becomes a good. That a computer program may be copyrightable as intellectual property does not alter the fact that once in the form of a floppy disc or other medium, the program is tangible, moveable and available in the marketplace. The fact that some programs may be tailored for specific purposes need not alter their status as 'goods' because the Code definition includes 'specially manufactured goods', Advent Systems Ltd. v. Unisys Corpn., 925 F. 2d 670 3dCir 1991. Associated Cement Compa...


Food stuff

Food stuff, the term ' foodstuff' is ambiguous. In one sense it has a narrow meaning and is limited to articles which are eaten as food for purposes of nutrition and nourishment and so would exclude condiments and spices such as yeast, salt, pepper, baking powder and turmeric. In a wider sense, it includes everything that goes in to the preparation of food proper (as understood in the narrow sense) to make it more palatable and digestible In my opinion the problems posed cannot be answered in the abstract and must be viewed in relation to its background and context, State of Bombay v. Virkumar Gulabchand Shah, AIR 1952 SC 335: (1952) SCR 877. [Essential Supplies (Temporary powers) Act, 1946, s. 2(9)]'Foodstuff' need not necessarily mean only the final food product which is consumed. It also includes raw food articles which may after processing be used as food by human beings, K. Janardhan Pillai v. Union of India, AIR 1981 SC 1485: (1981) 2 SCC 45: (1981) 2 SCR 676.Expression 'foodstuf...
