Debt Owed, Income Tax, Net Wealth, Voluntary Disclosure Of Income ... ... ... ... ..... t containing the charging section, section 4. We have no doubt that the liability is a liability that arose on the valuation date (vide the Supreme Court decision in H. H. Sethu Parvati Bayi v. Commissioner of Wealth-tax 1968 69 ITR 864) and that that liability was a debt owed by the assessees on the valuation dates falling under section 2(m) of the Wealth-tax Act, 1957. The Wealth-tax Officer was, therefore, in error in not having deducted the income-tax liability on the various valuation dates for the four years in question on the amounts declared by the assessees under section 68(2) of the Finance Act, 1965. We, therefore, allow these writ appeals, set aside the judgment in the original petitions and further set aside exhibits P-1, P-2, P-3, P-4 and P-7 in O.P. No. 1511 of 1969, and exhibits P-1, P-2, P-3, P-4 and P-9 in O.P. No. 1512 of 1969. The assessees in the two petitions are entitled to their costs including counsel fee which we fix at Rs. 250 in each of the cases.

Tribunal is right in considering the entirety of evidence and it appears to us the Tribunal has considered the entire evidence available on the question, viz., when did the Hindu undivided family separate or disrupt and when this unequivocal intention of separation was really expressed. Therefore, having considered the entirety of evidence, the Tribunal has recorded that the Hindu undivided family had continued up to 2nd November, 1956, and there is no question of challenging the finding on the ground of perversity or lack of material. In our view, therefore, the decision of the Tribunal cannot be assailed
