Surcharge
Surcharge, an overcharge of what is just and right; exceeding one's powers or privileges; a declaration by an auditor that a person is personally liable to refund a particular part of public money illegally expended by him [see, e.g. the Public Health Act, 1875, s. 247 (7)]; a second or further mortgage. See AUDIT.1. An additional tax, charge, or cost usu. one that is excessive 2. An additional load or burden, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn.The expression 'surcharge' in the context of taxation means an additional imposition which results in enhancement of the tax and the nature of the additional imposition is the same as the tax on which it is imposed as surcharge. A surcharge on land revenue is an enhancement of the land revenue to the extent of the imposition of surcharge. The nature of such imposition is the same viz., land revenue on which it is a charge, Sarojini Tea Co. (P) Ltd. v. Collector of Dibrugarh, AIR 1992 SC 1264 (1269): (1992) 2 SCC 156. [Assam Land Revenue and Land (S...
Contribution
Contribution, to any fund shall not include any sums in repayment of loan. [Income-tax Act, 1961 (43 of 1961), s. 80C(8)(ii)]Means the sum of money payable to the corporation by the principal employer in respect of an employee and includes any amount payable by or on behalf of the employee in accordance with the provisions of this Act. [Employees' State Insurance Act, 1948 (34 of 1948), s. 2(4)]The word 'contribution' used in the proviso must also be given its due meaning. It cannot be understood as donations. If that be so, a voluntary contribution cannot amount to a compulsive donation. If the donor, in order to gain an advantage or benefit, if he apprehends that but the contribution some adverse consequence would follow, makes a donation certainly it ceases to be voluntary, Municipal Corpn. of Delhi v. Children Book Trust, AIR 1992 SC 1456 (1472): (1992) 3 SCC 390. [Delhi Municipal Corporation Act, 1957, (66 of 1957), s. 115(4)(a), Proviso]The performance by each of two or more pers...
Usual Covenants
Usual Covenants, covenants usually inserted in deeds having a similar scope to that in respect of which a question arises. The phrase occurs most frequently in connection with agreements for leases stipulating that the lease when granted shall contain 'all usual covenants.' What these are is a question of fact, but it may perhaps be laid down that at the present day covenants by the lessee to pay rent, to pay taxes, and to repair, and a qualified covenant by the lessor for quiet enjoyment (see that title), are usual, but that no others are, and in particular that the covenant not to assign or underlet without the leave of the lessor is not: see Hampshire v. Wickens, (1878) 7 Ch D 555; Re Lander, (1892) 3 Ch 41.A proviso for re-entry on breach of covenants generally is not 'usual,' but a proviso for re-entry on breach of the covenant to pay rent is: see per James, LJ, in Hodgkinson v. Crowe, (1875) LR 10 Ch 622; Re Anderton, (1890) 45 Ch D 476.Usual terms, a phrase in the Common Law pra...
