... ... ... ... ..... aspects have been considered by the Tribunal in the case of Pioneer International. He specifically referred to para 4 of the said decision which refers to various letters produced by the learned Advocate from Government Organisation using these machines, and contended that these letters establishes that the machine is printing machine. 4. We have considered the submissions of both the sides. We observe that the issue regarding the classification of Risograph printing 5600 D has been settled by the Tribunal in the case of Pioneer International (to which one of us was party). After considering the Explanatory Notes of HSN for Heading 84.43 and Operational Panel, the Tribunal came to the conclusion that the Risograph can not be treated as off set printing machinery so as to be classifiable under sub-Heading 84.43 of the Tariff. We do not find any reason to differ with the classification earlier decided by this Tribunal. Accordingly, we reject the Appeal filed by the Appellants.

... ... ... ... ..... e regarded as immovable property. The above said case is applicable on all the fours to the case on hand. The subject-matter of the property in the instant case is Centerless Bar Turning Machine measuring 80' in length and 10' in width and 5' height embedded to the earth by mounting the same on cement base and fastened to it with bolts and nuts cannot be called as immovable property. Therefore, there is nothing wrong in the procedure adopted by the Advocate Commissioner while auctioning the property in question. The appellants have utterly failed to establish collusion between the Advocate Commissioner and Bank or any other violation of law while auctioning the property. Therefore, the decisions cited by the learned Counsel for the appellants are not applicable and of no avail to the case of the appellants. 10. Therefore, I pass the following order.-- The appeal fails and the same is hereby dismissed. In the circumstances of the case, I pass no order as to costs.

... ... ... ... ..... that the appellant desired that the decision of this Court should be obtained on certain questions of importance, and that purpose has been achieved. On a consideration of all the circumstances we do not think that this is a fit case in which we should pass an order for demolition." 53. The said decision, therefore, does not support the contention of the Appellants. CONCLUSION 54. For the reasons aforementioned, these appeals, being devoid of any merit, are dismissed. The Municipal Council is hereby directed to carry out the order of the High Court, as expeditiously as possible and not later than four weeks from date. Having regard to the fact that the Appellants have sought to mislead this Court, we think it appropriate to impose costs upon them. The Appellants are hereby directed to deposit a sum of ₹ 50,000/- (Rupees Fifty Thousand) with National Legal Services Authority within four weeks from date and deposit the receipt thereof in the Registry of this Court.

... ... ... ... ..... be examined and found positively for the purpose of exercise of said discretion. 21. In the case in hand, it appears that the impugned order did not suffer from any arbitrariness or capriciousness or unreasonableness and the learned trial Court has not ignored any settled position of law in rejecting the prayer for temporary injunction. Rather it has considered all these three factors essential in deciding the matter of injunction against the appellants. That being so, having regard to the above cited precedents, this Court does find enough force in the submission of the learned Counsel representing the respondent No. 1 and the same is accepted. 22. Consequently, this Court is of firm opinion that no wrong or illegality was committed by the learned Judge in exercising her discretion warranting interference of this Court with the impugned order dated 15-7-04. Interim order passed earlier shall stand vacated. 23. In the result, this appeal fails and stands dismissed. No costs.

... ... ... ... ..... respondent be terminated because of his unsuitability for the post. In this view of the matter, order of termination simpliciter cannot be said to be violative of Articles 14, 16 and 311 of the Constitution. The law on the point is crystallized that the probationer remains a probationer unless he has been confirmed on the basis of the work evaluation. Unless the relevant Rules under which the respondent was appointed as a Civil Judge, there is no provision for automatic or deemed confirmation and/or deemed appointment on regular establishment or post, and in that view of the matter, the contentions of the respondent that the respondent's services were deemed to have been continued on the expiry of the probation period, are misconceived." CONCLUSION For the reasons aforementioned, the impugned judgments cannot be sustained which are set aside accordingly. The appeals are allowed. However, in the facts and circumstances of the case, there will be no order as to costs.

... ... ... ... ..... tered office of HSCCI is at New Delhi as also the fact that the stamp paper on which supplementary agreement dated 31.12.2003 has been executed has been purchased at Delhi. A presumption has to be drawn that a document, executed on a stamp paper, has been executed in the state from where the stamp paper has been purchased. 28. I accordingly hold that subject to evidence being led on the issue as to where contract dated 17.5.2000 and the supplementary agreement dated 21.12.2003 was executed, at the moment, this court cannot hold that it has no territorial jurisdiction to entertain the present petition. For the purposes of maintainability of the petition, this court has to proceed ahead on the assertion of ABL that the original agreement as well as the supplementary agreement were executed at Delhi. 29. The preliminary objection by NEIGRIHMS is accordingly rejected, subject to final adjudication after evidence is led. It is held that the petition is maintainable in this court.

... ... ... ... ..... tered by plaintiff Nos. 2 and 3. Principle of interim injunction being to maintain "status quo ante bellum" i.e. to maintain a status before the war, facts of the present case do not warrant the issuance of any interim directions as prayed for as the same woolgather the status which existed and was sought to be altered by plaintiffs 2 and 3, when letter dated 7.5.2002 was addressed to defendant No. 1, which letter was not acted upon. Effect of relief if granted, would be to direct defendant No. 1 to alter the status quo which was existing. 31. The second reason which compels this Court not to grant the interim relief prayed for is that the dispute as laid, concerns the internal affairs and management of plaintiff No. 1 Issue relates to the accounts of plaintiff No. 1. Since parties are already before the Company Law Board in proceedings under Section 397 of the Companies Act, appropriate forum would be the Company Law Board. 32. I.A. 6084/02 is dismissed. No costs.

... ... ... ... ..... he considered view that in case the plaintiff feels that the defendant is in breach of Agreement, the plaintiff may sue him for damages in accordance with law. 10. Accordingly, this Court finds no prima facie case in favor of the plaintiff. The balance of convenience is also more in favor of the defendant who has to make his livelihood by seeking employment in the trade in which he has some experience. No irreparable loss/injury would be caused to the plaintiff as its contract with M/s. Indigo Orient Limited, with whom the defendant is working, has already come to an end by efflux of time and it is not pleaded that the same has been renewed. The plaintiff can be adequately compensated in terms of money and may claim damages for the breach, if any. 11. Accordingly, is No.4894/2004 stands dismissed. 12. Nothing stated herein shall be taken as an expression of opinion on the merits of the suit pending before the Court inasmuch as the observations made herein are tentative only.

... ... ... ... ..... und can be ordered on account of setting aside the respective orders as liability cast on them to pay service tax on account of ‘goods transport operator’ is never distinguished. I do not find that reasoning of the Commissioner (Appeals) is sustainable. The moment he sets aside the orders of the original authority demanding service tax, relief follows as a consequence. He cannot say that the appellants are not entitled for refund after setting aside the orders of the original authority. The Order-in-Appeal is patently wrong. I hold that appellants are entitled for refund. The appeals are allowed. (Operative part of the order was pronounced in open Court on 8-3-2005).

... ... ... ... ..... aw Board. 83. For the reasons stated hereinabove, the appeal is allowed. 84. After the judgment has been pronounced by me, Mr. Mukherjee, learned Counsel, appearing on behalf of Dr. Kamal Kumar Dutta (petition in Section 397/398) submitted that his client had filed an application before this Court on the ground that some steps are being taken by the appellant-company and Sajal Kumar Dutta's group (the respondents before the Company Law Board) which are also to be adjudicated upon ; since the appeal is being disposed of by me, I feel that this Court is not in seisin over the matter at all. Hence, the matter may be placed before the appropriate forum and leave is also granted to take steps accordingly. 85. There will be a stay of the operation of this order for a period of six weeks so that the parties can take steps in the matter. I also make it clear that the decision will not stand in the way if the parties want to take steps to arrive at any settlement of their choice.

... ... ... ... ..... atives. In case, she is willing for sale of her group’s shares, she should file an application before this Bench for appointment of an independent valuer and for consequential directions. In case she chooses to share the developed property, she should communicate the same to the respondents. This should be done within a month from the date of this order. However, in case, she does not choose any of the two alternatives and to ensure that the respondents do not enter into any agreement for development of the property without the consent of the shareholders, I direct that any proposal for development of the property with any builder should be approved by the general body by way of a special resolution. I am making this stipulation only because the company itself, at the first instance, decided to obtain the consent of the general body by way of a special resolution in the EOGM held on 15-3-2000. 20. The petition is disposed of in the above terms with no order as to cost.

... ... ... ... ..... C or not. EXECUTION CASE In view of the aforementioned findings, the decree passed in Title Suit No.49 of 1990 having regard to our decision in Civil Appeal No.9131 of 2003 reported in (2004) 1 SCC 483, the decree has become enforceable. The submission of Mr. Sanghi to the effect that the undertaking given by the Respondents has revived is stated to be rejected. The undertaking given by the Appellant is analogous to an interlocutory injunction restraining her from executing the decree till the Respondents’ suit for specific performance was decided by the trial court as this Court held that the said undertaking cannot be revived after the party giving it has been released therefrom See Cutler vs. Wandsworth Stadium Ltd. (1945) 1 All E.R. 103 CONCLUSION For the reasons aforementioned, the impugned judgments cannot be sustained which are set aside accordingly. The appeals are allowed. However, in the facts and circumstance of the case, there shall be no order as to costs.

... ... ... ... ..... evidence produced before the authorities and on the relevant records. No question of law, much less a substantial question of law arises for consideration in the present appeal. 3. We may also notice here that the order of the Appellate Tribunal is dated 26th September, 2002 while the present appeal was filed, as per the stamp of the Registry of the High Court, on 1st March, 2005. There is an apparent delay in filing the appeal. 4. However, there is no application for condonation of delay in filing the appeal. There is considerable delay even in re-filing the appeal for which application for condonation of delay in re-filing (CM No. 3924/2005) has been filed. Prima facie the appeal would also be barred by time. Even this would be a circumstance against the respondent, for us to dismiss this appeal. The appeal is dismissed accordingly. 5. C.Ms. No. 3923/2005 (for stay), 3924/2005 (for delay in re-filing) and 3925/2005 (exemption) stands disposed of accordingly.

... ... ... ... ..... under Section 29, the exemption is granted by the statute itself and is automatic in respect of the urban lands owned by the authorities or institutions referred to therein, the exemption under Section 27 is not so. For exemption under Section 27, power is vested with the State Government to exempt the lands or persons from payment of tax "if the Government is satisfied that the payment of urban land tax 005 005would cause undue hardship". Such power can be exercised by the Government only on specific application by the person or institution seeking exemption and on placing satisfactory material for exercise of such power. The exemption under Section 27 is not a matter of right and does not follow as a matter of course. No other contention was raised. There is absolutely no merit in the civil appeals. The appellant is not entitled to exemption from payment of urban land tax during the period 1965-1976 as prayed for. The appeals are accordingly dismissed. No costs.
