Resale within the State

Resale within the State, the expression 'resale within the State' in Form No. ST 17 must be read in the light of Explanation II to s. 2(o) of the State Act as it is a recognised canon of construction that an expression used in a rule, by law or form issued in exercise of power conferred by a statue must, unless there is anything repugnant in the subject or context have the same meaning as is assigned to it under the statue. Explanation II enacts as to when a sale shall be deemed to be a sale within the State by incorporating in it by reference the provisions of s. 4(2) of the Central Sales Tax Act, Onkarlal Nandlal v.

Within

Within, the expression 'within' should be read as 'during' or 'for' and this cannot be done because words cannot be construed contrary to their meaning as the word 'within' would mean 'on or before', 'not beyond' and, therefore, it was held that the Act would mean that on or before the expiration of the iddat period, the husband is bound to make and pay a maintenance to the wife and if he fails to do so then the wife is entitled to recover it by filing an application before the Magistrate as provided in s. 3(3) but nowhere the Parliament has provided that reasonable and fair provision and maintenance is limited only for the iddat period and not beyond it. It would extend to the whole life of the divorced wife unless she gets married for a second time, Danial Latifi v. Union of India, AIR 2001 SC 3958 (3969): (2001) 7 SCC 740.

Within such period

Within such period, means within the period which ends with the last day of limitation prescribed. In other wards, in all cases falling under s. 5 what the party has to show is why he did not file an appeal on the last day of limitation prescribed. That may inevitably mean that the party will have to show sufficient cause not only for not filing the appeal on the last day but to explain the delay made thereafter day by day. In other words, in showing sufficient cause for condoning the delay the party may be called upon to explain for the whole of the delay covered by the period between the last day prescribed for filing the appeal and the day on which the appeal is filed. To hold that the expression 'within such period' means during such period would, be repugnant in the context, Ram Lal v. Rewa Coalifieds Ltd., AIR 1962 SC 361 (364): (1962) 2 SCR 762. (Limitation Act, 1963, s. 5)...

See definitions in the British Nationality and Status of Aliens Acts, 1914 and 1933, infra.

It provided, inter alia, that every person born of a British mother should be capable of holding real or personal estate; that alien friends might hold every species of personal property except chattels real; that subjects of a friendly power might hold lands, etc., for the purposes of residence or business for a term not exceeding twenty-one years; and it also provided for aliens becoming naturalized.Alien, (UK) is a person who is neither a Common-wealth citizen nor a British protected person nor a citizen of the Republic of Ireland.
