  Profit on sale of shares - Held that the assessee in the instant case held a number of shares as he had shown Rs. 46,980 as income from dividend in the assessment year in question. A legitimate inference can be drawn from the facts that the assessee entered into contracts for forward sale in respect of 15,000 shares with the sole motive of profit and derived profit therefrom, He also showed the amount in question as business speculation profit in his return - held that the assessee derived the said amount as adventure in the nature of trade, and, as such, it was an income from business, within the meaning of section 2(13) of the Act, liable to be taxed

  Penalty for concealment - assessee received certain deposits and balances had not been returned to persons entitled to them - " Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Appellate Tribunal is correct in law in cancelling the penalties levied under section 271(1)(c) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, for the assessment years 1963-64, 1964-65 and 1965-66 ? " - So also in the present case, the admission was wrong and it was for the department to prove positively on other material that there was concealment of income. Being a quasi-criminal proceeding, the burden is entirely on the department. Apart from the so-called admission, there is no material to hold that the income was concealed - Question answered in the affirmative

  Whether the Government or the taxation authorities can retain with themselves amount of tax collected by them when the very basis of that collection has been subsequently held by the highest tribunal in the land to be without any legal basis or without any foundation in law - In the instant case we have based our decision on Tilokchand Motichand's case and the other two decisions of the Supreme Court in Gila Devi Aggarwal's case and Champalal Binani's case . Hence, it cannot be said that the question needs to be decided by the Supreme Court. Though one requirement, namely, of clause (a) is satisfied, the other requirement of clause (b) of article 133(1) as it stands after the 30th Amendment is not satisfied Under these circumstances, we regret that we cannot certify that this is a case which needs to be decided by the Supreme Court. We, therefore, reject the oral application made on behalf of the petitioner

  Assessee was to acquire property absolutely on the death of his ancestor, according to a trust created by the latter - There was also a provision in the will giving share of commission to the assessee absolutely - In addition, the assessee also received income from ancestral property - Whether the income derived from the property received by Gordhandas under the trust settlement, and/or share income of the managing agency received by him under clause 12 of the will is assessable, in the hands of the Hindu undivided family consisting of Gordhandas and his son as coparceners - whether by his subsequent conduct the assessee had treated these properties as Hindu undivided family properties. - mere fact that the assessee had not kept separate accounts in respect of his income from these two types of properties cannot, in my opinion, be enough or equivalent to having thrown them into the common stock or of having blended them - income from the property received under the trust settlement and share of commission received according to the will are assessable as the assessee's individual income
