"Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was right in cancelling the penalty of Rs. 8,732 imposed on the assessee?" - Section 271(1)(i) lays down that the penalty must be computed at a sum equal to two per cent. of the tax for every month during which the default continued, but not exceeding in the aggregate fifty per cent. of the tax.

In the instant case we find that while dividing the properties between the various partners, the arbitrators valued them and after distributing them they made adjustments in the shares by directing the partner receiving property of a higher value to pay actual monetary compensation to the partner receiving property of lower value. In view of the principles laid down in the Supreme Court case mentioned above, it is clear that the actual cost of the oil mill to the assessee should be considered to be Rs. 9,50,000 and not what it was to the original firm, Kishan Lal Matrumal, at the time of its acquisition.

Firm – registration u/s 26A – legality of partnership ... ... ... ... ..... ecifically provided that all the partners were entering into the partnership agreement in their individual capacity. In the circumstances, it was not open to the Income-tax Officer to go behind the recitals made in the partnership deed and to hold that the agreement had been entered into by several of the partners in their capacity as kartas of their respective joint Hindu families. As only 18 persons had entered into an agreement of partnership in their individual capacity, the partnership agreement did not contravene the proviso to section 4 of the Indian Companies Act. The Tribunal was, therefore, right in holding that the registration could not be refused to the assessee on the ground that the partnership was illegal. In the result, we answer the question referred to us in the affirmative and in favour of the assessee. The assessee is entitled to his costs which we assess at Rs. 200. Counsel s fee is also assessed at the same figure. Question answered in the affirmative.
