... ... ... ... ..... eviction against Defendant No. 1 in terms of Section 13(1)(e) of the Act. 29. In light of the discussion made above, we find that the judgments and orders passed by the High Court and the two courts below are quite unsustainable. We, accordingly, set aside the judgments and orders passed by the High Court and the court of Small Causes and dismiss the suit filed by the Plaintiff-Respondent No. 1. 30. The appeals are allowed but with no order as to costs. NOTE - 1 As a result of acquisition of a part of the leasehold lands and for other reasons, the 1886 lease was followed by subsequent leases in which the area of the lease hold lands was considerably reduced. But the stipulation against assignment on which the case of the Plaintiff-Respondent is based remained unaltered. In the pleadings of the parties and the judgments of the courts the reference is made to the above quoted clause in the 1886 deed. It is, therefore, unnecessary to go into the details of the subsequent leases.

... ... ... ... ..... s, as has been discussed here-in-above, enunciates that the charge sheet was incomplete for the evidences, which were within the knowledge of the Investigating Officer, therefore, in light of the facts of the present case, I am of the view that since the charge sheet is incomplete charge sheet, it is not the stage for the learned Magistrate to take cognizance of offence on the basis of incomplete charge-sheet, therefore, I hereby quash the order impugned dated 9th of November, 2010, passed in Case No. 13126 of 2010, arising out of Criminal Case No. 639 of 2010. However, since the investigation is still continuing on the evidences, which have been disclosed in the said incomplete charge-sheet, I hereby observe that as soon as it is completed and police report is filed before the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, he shall be at liberty to take cognizance of offence on the basis of police report. 23. With the aforesaid observations and directions the petition is partly allowed.

... ... ... ... ..... ght it proper to call for a Remand Report from the concerned AO. A report was submitted on 25/07/2003 and, thereafter, an another report was submitted on 15/04/2004. Copies of those reports are also before us. After careful perusal of the said reports, ld.CIT(A) has deleted the addition. In respect of share application money, the assessee has furnished the creditworthiness of the creditors, identity of the creditors and genuineness of the transaction which was found correct on verification by the AO, therefore, a view was taken in favour of the assessee. In the absence of any contrary material from the side of the Revenue, we find no fallacy in the judgement of the ld.CIT(A), hence affirm the same. This ground of the Revenue is dismissed . 13. In the result, Assessee s appeals for both the years ((ITA Nos.3674 3675/Ahd/2008) are allowed and Revenue s appeal for AY 1996-97 (ITA No. 3876/Ahd/2008) is dismissed. Order signed, dated and pronounced in the Court on 8th April, 2011.

... ... ... ... ..... Limited with respect to the procurement of orders of Rs. 2,42,21,413/- from M/s Intas Pharmaceuticals Limited and for timely receiving the payment thereof. Merely because there was no written agreement, the same cannot be made sole reason for disallowing the payment of commission with respect to the services rendered by M/s Lamp Cap (India) Private Limited. It is a matter of record that the turnover of the assessee has increased from Rs. 1.15 crore to Rs. 5.28 crores which includes sales to M/s OIntas Pharmaceuticals Limited amounting to Rs.2.42 crores which has been achieved by the efforts of M/s Lamp Cap (India) Private Limited. Thus, on the facts and circumstances of the case, we do not find any justification for disallowing the claim of expenditure incurred wholly and exclusively for the purpose of promotion of the assessee s business in the form of commission. 5. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed. Order pronounced in the open Court on 28th April, 2011

... ... ... ... ..... cused and issuing directions based on which the trial has to be concluded within the schedule time, viz. 31.07.2011, we hold that the High Court committed an error in granting bail to these Respondents A4 and A10. 23. In the light of the above discussion, the impugned order of the High Court dated 25.06.2010 in Crl. Petition Nos. 4913 and 4972 of 2010 granting bail in favour of the Respondents i.e., A4 and A10 is set aside. They are directed to surrender on or before 30.04.2011 otherwise the Appellant shall take appropriate steps in accordance with law. All the observations and directions, as stated in the earlier order dated 26.10.2010, are also applicable to the Respondents (A4 and A10). We also make it clear that the above said conclusion is for considering the grant of bail by the High Court and the trial Court is free to decide the case without being influenced by any of the observations made by the High court and by this Court in this order. 24. The appeals are allowed.

... ... ... ... ..... III of the said Code are limited. It cannot be said that the impugned order is perverse and in fact, the grounds on which equitable relief has been denied are certainly relevant. Hence, on facts, this is not the case where interference can be made with the impugned order. Appeal from Order No. 884 of 2010 is accordingly dismissed with no order as to costs. 31. Civil Application No. 1095 of 2010 does not survive and the same is disposed of. 32. It is obvious that the suit will be decided on its own merits without being influenced by the tentative observations made by the trial Court and confirmation thereof by this Court. 33. Hearing of the suit is expedited and the trial Court shall endeavour to conclude the hearing before 31st March, 2012. 34. Appeal from Order No. 857 of 2010 is admitted. 35. Pendency of Appeal from Order No. 857 of 2010 in this Court will not operate as stay of the proceedings of the suit and the trial Court is free to proceed with the hearing of the suit.

Hence, the respondent is directed to consider the request of the petitioner, dated 31.3.2011, for rectification of the assessment order, dated 25.3.2011, passed by the respondent, for the assessment year 2007-08, and to pass a fresh assessment order, on merits and in accordance with law, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

... ... ... ... ..... ssessee. We find no justification on the part of the Revenue to disbelieve the same based on the Inspectors report only. Therefore we delete the additions of Rs.3,65,110/- made u/s 68 of the IT Act and consequential disallowance of Rs.65,72/- on account of interest. Therefore ground no.1 and 2 of the assessee are allowed. 8.1. As regarding the gifts, we are of the considered view that the Revenue has brought sufficient material on record to the effect that in the circumstances of the case it is quite unusual and unnatural and against human probabilities that without any relation between the donor and the donee and with poor financial status of the donors simply by proving the identity of the donor is not sufficient to establish the gifts to be a genuine one. Therefore, we confirm the action of the Revenue on account of the gifts and dismiss ground no.3 of the assessee. 9. In the result the appeal of the assessee is allowed in part. Order pronounced in the court on 05.04.2011.

... ... ... ... ..... idavit-in- opposition at the instance of the defendant, the scope of this appeal is very limited as to whether even if all the averments made in the plaint are treated to be true, it was a fit case for grant of injunction by the learned Single Judge. For the above reasons, we dispense with the necessity of filing paper book with a direction upon the appellant to prepare an informal paper book containing Memorandum of Appeal and the plaint of the suit itself. Let such informal paper book be served upon the plaintiff/respondent by Thursday next. Let the matter appear as a last "new application" on 29.4.2011. We also dispense with the necessity of service of notice upon the respondent other than the plaintiff/respondent. This order, however, will not stand in the way of other parties appearing and supporting any of the parties. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties subject to compliance with all requisite formalities.

... ... ... ... ..... nged on the ground it violates the basic structure of the Constitution, it can be challenged as violative of constitutional provisions which enshrine the principles of the rule of law, separation of powers and independence of the judiciary. 25. In view of this decision by this Court, till a proper judicial authority is set up under the aforesaid Acts, the appeals to the Administrator under Section 347D of the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act, 1957 and also under Section 256 of the NDMC Act shall lie to the District Judge, Delhi. All pending appeals filed under the erstwhile provisions, as aforesaid, shall stand transferred to the Court of District Judge, Delhi. However, the decisions which have already been arrived at by the Administrator under the aforesaid two provisions will not be reopened in view of the principles of prospective overruling. 26. The judgment of the High Court is, therefore, set aside and the appeal is allowed. There will be, however, no orders as to costs.

... ... ... ... ..... t year 2009-10, order dated 13.1.2011, in which it has been held that appeal against the order of the DIT(CIB) does not directly lie to the Tribunal, but it first lies before the ld. CIT(A). Only second appeal can be filed before the ITAT. 5. We have seen the Tribunal order dated 13.1.2011 and are convinced that this appeal before the Tribunal is not maintainable because the first appeal against the penalty order lies before the ld. CIT(A). In that view of the matter, we cannot treat this appeal as maintainable; but still in the given facts and circumstances of the case, we would like to observe that it is open to the appellant to file proper appeal before the ld. CIT(A) after obtaining legal opinion, if it so advised. Hence, by respectfully following our above order, we dismiss the appeal which is filed directly before the Tribunal, being not maintainable. 6. In the result, the appeal filed by the assessee stands dismissed. 7. Order pronounced in the open court on 12.4.2011.

... ... ... ... ..... y the basic object and purpose of appointment on compassionate grounds. 10. The High Court was, therefore, in error in passing the impugned order. 11. It further appears that an important and relevant fact was completely missed out in considering the Respondent's claim for appointment on compassionate basis. From the records it appears that in the verification appended to his OA before the Tribunal he gave his age as 58 years in June, 1998. Unless his age is wrongly stated in the verification to the OA, he would be 54 years of age when he made the application for compassionate appointment and 61 years old when the High Court allowed his Writ Petition. In other words, he was already beyond the age of superannuation and there was no question of his appointment on compassionate ground or on any other grounds. 12. In light of the discussions made above, the order coming under appeal is wholly unsustainable. It is set aside. The appeal is allowed but with no order as to costs.

... ... ... ... ..... ck owners. However, the Assessing Officer has taken the view from the return of income of the assessee that the assessee is liable to deduct tax at source on the said freight payments. Thus it can be noticed that the inference drawn by the Assessing Officer is not as simple as it was considered by him. The matter requires a detailed verification of facts. Further the contentions made by the assessee would show that there are conceivably two opinions on the impugned issue. Thus it is hard to accept that the impugned issue would fall in the category of obvious and patent mistake. Hence, in our view, the Assessing Officer could not have passed the order under section 154 of the Act for making the impugned disallowance under section 40(a)(ia) of the Act. In view of the foregoing, we set aside the order of learned CIT(A) and also the order passed under section 154 of the Act. 6. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is allowed. Pronounced in the open Court on 12th April, 2011.

... ... ... ... ..... ITR 14 (SC) wherein it was held that “When it is left to the option and discretion of the ITO whether or not to take action, it cannot be described as a direction. A mere observation by the AAC and that the ITO is free to take action to assess the excess in the hands of the co-owners cannot be described as a ‘direction’. A ‘direction’ or ‘finding’ as contemplated by section 153(3)(ii) must be a finding necessary for disposal of a particular case, that is to say, in respect of a particular assessee and in relevance to a particular assessment year. To be a direction as contemplated by section 153(3)(ii), it must be an express direction necessary for disposal of the case before the authority or the Court (CIT Vs. Foramer France (2003) 129 Taxman 72 (SC).” 6. In view of the above discussions, we quash the assessment orders of both the years and the appeals of the assessee are allowed. Order pronounced in the Open Court on 21.4. 2011

... ... ... ... ..... an option or discretion given to the first respondent, which option or discretion affects a civil right of the bidder by way of forfeiture. The first respondent is undoubtedly an instrumentality of State. Therefore, notwithstanding that this is a contractual matter, it must follow the principles of fair play and give an opportunity of hearing to the person whose rights would be affected by the decision in which the first respondent has more than one option. 23. In view of what has been held above, we quash that part of the decision of the first respondent by which it has been decided to forfeit the bid security of the petitioner and allow the first respondent liberty to issue a proper show cause notice in the light of what has been stated above and to pass a reasoned order after considering the response of the petitioner, if any such response is received within the time permitted by the first respondent for such response. 24. The writ petition is allowed to the above extent.

In these cases, possession of the acquired land was not taken within two years of dismissal of the writ petitions. Therefore, the land cannot be said to have vested in the State Government. 23. In the result, the appeals are allowed. The impugned orders are set aside and it is declared that the acquisition proceedings will be deemed to have lapsed insofar as the Appellants are concerned, due to non-compliance of the mandate of Section 11A of the Act. However, the parties are left to bear their own costs. 24. In terms of signed order, the appeals are allowed. The impugned orders are set aside and it is declared that the acquisition proceedings will be deemed to have lapsed insofar as the Appellants are concerned, due to non-compliance of the mandate of Section 11A of the Act. However, the parties are left to bear their own costs.

Impugned judgment and order passed by the Division Bench of the Patna High Court in Writ Petition bearing No. CWJC 9981/2010, dated 8th July, 2010, is set aside. The said writ petition filed by the Appellant herein stands allowed in part.
