... ... ... ... ..... 83 has been cancelled and, as further put forth by the learned Counsel for the Respondents, the same is under assail before the High Court. The said Madhav Singh Tadagi was neither a party before the tribunal nor before the High Court and he is also not a party before this Court. As presently advised, we refrain ourselves from expressing any opinion on the cancellation of promotion and the repercussions of the same. As the matter is sub-judice before the High Court, suffice it to say that the High Court shall deal with the same in accordance with the settled principles of law in that regard. We say no more on the said score. However, we irrefragably come to hold that the direction given by the tribunal which has been concurred with by the High Court being absolutely unsustainable in law is bound to be axed and we so do. 24. Consequently, the appeals are allowed and the orders passed by the High Court and that of the tribunal are set aside. There shall be no order as to costs.

... ... ... ... ..... f Bikram Singh (supra). In para.7, the Honourable Larger Bench has found that the interest paid under Section 28 is not by way of any charge on compensation determined under Section 23(1). We, therefore, with respect, follow the larger Bench judgment of the Honourable Apex Court. 10 In W.P. Nos. 5401/2013, 5402/2013, and 5427/2012, only 50% of the amount deducted is forwarded by SLAO to the Income Tax Officer. Remaining 50% is still not forwarded and this Court has, on 8.7.2013, restrained him from forwarding the same. Mr. D.A. Bide, points out that in W.P. No. 3536 of 2013 there is no such order. However, only 50% amount is forwarded to the Income Tax Officer and 50% is still lying with the SLAO. Needless to mention that if deduction is found not only on the amount of interest but on amount of compensation also, the concerned authorities including the SLAO, can then order refund of proportionate amount to the petitioners. 11 Writ petitions are partly allowed and disposed of.

... ... ... ... ..... he provisions of Section 21 of the National Investigation Agency Act, 2008, the matters in the High Court ought to have been heard by a Division Bench and not by a Single Judge. The submission made by the learned Additional Solicitor General is based on the provision of sub- section (2) of Section 21, which is a statutory requirement. That being so, the order passed by the High Courts deserve to be set aside and the proceedings, namely, Crl.P. No.6562/2012 in the High Court of Andhra Pradesh and Criminal Bail Application No.1063/2012 in the Bombay High Court, will have to be restored to the Division Bench of the respective High Courts. Ordered accordingly. We are informed that in both the cases, the respondents are in custody.

... ... ... ... ..... payable to the petitioner at 1% of the sum under S. 194IA of the Act since the total sale consideration exceeds ₹ 50 lakhs. The obligation to deduct tax under S. 194IA of the Act arises when consideration is payable to a resident transferor on the transfer of immovable property otherwise than by land acquisition. It is upto the petitioner to submit his return before the jurisdictional assessing officer and take the proceedings to a logical end in the determination of his tax liability. The dictum in Infopark Kerala's case as affirmed in W.A. No. 2243 of 2008 is clearly distinguishable in as much as the same dealt with the deduction of tax under S. 194IA of the Act in the absence of a compulsory acquisition. The District Collector and the Special Tahsildar (Land Acquisition) are therefore directed to disburse the sale consideration to the petitioner after deducting income tax at 1% of the sum under S. 194IA of the Act. The Writ Petition is allowed in part. No costs.

This fact is not controverted by the ld. DR. We have given our thoughtful consideration to the facts of the present case. The authorities below ought to have applied their mind on the facts of the case as non-consideration of the transaction being transactions in Mutual Funds exfacie depicts the non-application of mind.

In other words, if a class does not come within the exceptions, as provided in Sub-Articles (4), (4A) and (4B) of Article 16 of the Constitution of India, the State is bereft of any power to provide for any reservation for any person in any employment available with the State.

... ... ... ... ..... had been at the time of incident. In such a fact-situation, the provisions of Section 106 of Evidence Act may also be made applicable as the Appellant/accused had special knowledge regarding such facts, though he failed to furnish any explanation thus, the court could draw an adverse inference against him. 26. In view of the above, the findings recorded by the Trial Court on each issue had been perverse and the High Court has rightly reversed the said findings. The conduct of the Appellant/accused during the trial also disentitled him of any indulgence whatsoever. The appeal lacks merit, and is, accordingly dismissed. The Appellant-accused is on bail. His bail bonds stand cancelled. He must surrender within a period of four weeks from today failing which the III Additional Sessions Judge, Bangalore City, CCH No. 25 shall take him in custody to serve out the remaining sentence. A copy of the order be sent to the learned Additional Sessions Judge for information and compliance.

... ... ... ... ..... m for depreciation of ₹ 1,81,174/-. He submitted that the Assessing Officer has disallowed the claim of the assessee on the ground that the assessee has claimed depreciation against the property which is let out. According to the Assessing Officer, the income from rent is chargeable under the head ‘income from house property’ therefore, the assessee cannot claim depreciation against the same property. 13. On appeal, the ld. CIT(A) confirmed the action of the Assessing Officer. 14. At the time of hearing, the ld. A.R of the assessee submitted that as the assessee has shown rental income throughout the year from house property, therefore, the order of the Assessing Officer in denying the claim of deduction of depreciation against such income to the assessee was in order. We, therefore, dismiss this ground of appeal of the assessee. 15. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is partly allowed. Order pronounced on Monday, the 05th of August, 2013, at Chennai.

... ... ... ... ..... ue in controversy is whether the donations given by the assessee trust to another charitable trust is an application of income within the meaning of Sec. 11 of the Act. So far as an application of the income is concerned which is in respect of donations given by the assessee trust to another charitable trust the issue stands squarely covered in favour of the assessee by the Hon'ble Jurisdictional High Court in the case of Trustees of the Jadi Trust (supra). Moreover, as per the instruction no. 1132, dated 05-01-2007 issued by the CBDT nowhere it is made mandatory that there should be specific objects in the trust deed. It is sufficient that the donations are given to the donee trust for applying the donation for the charitable purpose for which the donor trust is settled. In our opinion, no interference is called for in the order of the Ld. CIT(A). Accordingly, same is confirmed. 5. In the result, the revenue appeal is dismissed. Pronounced in the open Court on 26-08-2013

(1) XXXX (2) XXXX 3. In view of the above provisions of Section 82(1) Cr.P.C., it is clear that the publication was effected on 9.2.2013 and the accused was directed to appear in the Court as per that publication on 6.3.2013 which period was less than 30 days. Therefore, it cannot be held that by passing the impugned order on 13.3.2013, the publication has been effected as per the provisions of Section 82 Cr.P.C. There was no order in the publication for the accused giving specified time and place to appear on 13.3.2013. Therefore, this order is not as per law and the same is set aside. Finding merit in the petition, the same is allowed. The impugned order dated 13.32012 (Annexure-P.1) is set aside. The lower Court record be returned.

... ... ... ... ..... A No. 2426/Mum/2010 dated 22nd February, 2012, deleted these additions. Consequently the penalty so imposed by the Assessing Officer was deleted by the learned CIT(A). 3. After considering the rival submissions and perusing the relevant material on record, we find that the learned CIT(A) has deleted the penalty on the premise that the additions, which formed the bedrock of the penalty, no more stand in view of their deletion by the Tribunal in quantum proceedings. No material has been placed on record to demonstrate that the order passed by the Tribunal in quantum proceedings has been reversed or modified by the Hon’ble High Court. We, therefore, uphold the impugned order. 4. परिणामतः अपीलें खारिज की जाती हैं। In the result, the appeal is dismissed. Order pronounced on this 16th day of August, 2013.
