Set up

Set up, means a unit cannot be said to have been set up, unless it is ready to discharge the function for which it is being set up. It is only when the unit has been put into such a shape that it can start functioning as a business or a manufacturing organization that it can be said that the unit has been set up. The word 'set up' in the principal clause is equivalent to the word established, CWT Madras v. RS Cotton Mills, AIR 1967 SC 509: (1967) 1 SCJ 123: (1967) 1 ITJ 1: (1967) 1 Andh WR (SC) 25: (1967) 1 Mad LJ (SC) 25: (1967) 63 ITR 478....

Newly set up establishment

Newly set up establishment, the word 'establish-ment' is also found used in s. 3 and that section clearly indicates that an establishment may consist of different departments or undertakings and it is, therefore, not synonymous with 'undertaking' which has been defined, though in a different context, by this Court in Gymkhana Club Employees' Union v. Management, (1968) 1 SCR 742: AIR 1968 SC 554: (1967) 2 Lab LJ 720 to mean 'any business or any work or any project which one engages in or attempts as an enterprise analogous to business or trade'. The dictionary meaning of 'establishment' as given in Webster International Dictionary includes inter alia 'an institution or place of business, with its fixture and organised staff;as, large establishment, a manufacturing establishment'. 'Establishment' therefore means the whole trading, business or manufacturing apparatus with a separate identifiable existence. This apparatus which is used for the purpose of carrying on trade, business or und...


Set-off

Set-off, any counter-balance or cross-claim.A defendant's counter demand against the plaintiff, arising out of transaction independent of plaintiff's claim, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 1376.The subject of a set-off under the former practice was a cross debt or claim, on which a separate action might be sustained, due to the party defendant from the party plaintiff. It was a defence crated by 2 Geo.2, c. 22, and had no existence at Common Law, and could only be pleaded in respect of mutual debts of a definite character, and did not apply to a claim founded in damages, or in the nature o a penalty, and the debt must have been due in the same right and between the same parties, and not a mere equitable demand. The defendant could not avail himself of a set-off, unless it were specially pleaded, and particulars thereof delivered with the plea.It is now provided by (English) R.S.C. 1883, Ord. XIX., r. 3, that a defendant in an action may set off or set up, by way of counter-claim a...


Adverse possession

Adverse possession is that form of possession or occupancy of land which is inconsistent with the title of any person to whom the land rightfully belongs and tends to extinguish that person's title, see (English) Real Property Limitation Act, 1874 (37 & 38 Vict. c. 57), which provides that no person shall make an entry or distress, or bring an action to recover any land or rent, but within twelve years next after the time when the right first accrued, and does away with the doctrine of adverse possession, except in the cases provided for by s. 15. See Nepean v. Doe, (1837) 2 M. & W. 910.Possession is not held to be adverse if it can be referred to a lawful title, Doe v. Bightwen, 10 East 583; Wall v. Stanwick, 34 Ch D 763. Non-adverse possession is of two kinds. The title of the dispossessed may not be paramount, as in the case of a leasehold term when dispossession of the lessee is not necessarily inconsistent with the reversioner's rights, and secondly, the person setting up disposse...

Freedom of speech

Freedom of speech, Freedom of speech presupposes that right conclusions are more likely to be gathered out of a multitude of tongues than through any kind of authoritative selection. It rests on the assumption that the widest possible dissemination of information from as many diverse and antagonistic sources as possible is essential to the welfare of the public. It is function of the Press to disseminate news from as many different sources and with as many different facts and colours as possible. A citizen is entirely dependent on the Press for the quality, proportion and extent of his news supply. In such a situation, the exclusive and continues advocacy of one point of view through the medium of a newspaper which holds a monopolistic position is not conductive to the formation of healthy public opinion. If the newspaper industry is concentrated in a few hands, the chance of an idea antagonistic to the idea of the owners getting access to the market becomes very remote. But our consti...
