1969 (2) TMI 45 - KARNATAKA HIGH COURT
Estate Duty Act, 1953 - assessment ... ... ... ... ..... defective, we would not be right in thinking that the petitioner cannot appeal to our jurisdiction under that constitutional provision. So, we take the view that the assessment in so far as it concerns the petitioner cannot be supported. But since the assessment made by the Assistant Controller is an indivisible assessment which created a joint and several liability in respect of the third share in the property belonging to the Aliyasantana family, and in the view that we take, the assessment could be made only with respect to a sixth share the value of which had to be independently determined, it is plain that we cannot maintain any portion of the assessment order which has to fall to the ground in its entirety. So we set aside the order of the Assistant Controller reserving liberty for him to make a fresh assessment in accordance with law and in conformity with the observations made in the course of this order. In the circumstances, we make no direction in regard to costs.

Taxability of amount received by the assessee as subscription from its members ... ... ... ... ..... from the taint of commerciality. The entrance fees and periodical subscriptions paid by the members for obtaining membership of the assessee-club in the present case and which remain payable even if the racing is stopped or suspended, cannot be said to be received by the assessee out of any profit motive and they remain immune from the taint of commerciality even when the members are allowed the privilege of a free admission into stands, where non-members would be required to pay, the said members privileges being clearly referable to their membership of the club. The receipts from members subscriptions or entrance fees by the assessee cannot, therefore, form part of its assessable income and the sum of Rs. 11,000 received by the assessee as subscription from its members is not taxable. The answer to the question referred to us, therefore, is in the affirmative. In the circumstances, the revenue shall pay the costs of the respondent. Counsel s fee Rs. 100. KAPUR J.-I agree.

Deduction - admissible expenditure - computation of business income - section 10 ... ... ... ... ..... . Though the head may be one, namely, business, where its components are different as in the case of several businesses run, each of a distinct nature, each has got to be taken as a separate unit for purposes of ascertainment of profits. Expenditure under section 10(1) is allowed not as a deduction or as allowance but as the component inherent in the process of ascertaining the profits, namely, arriving at the net result of credits and debits referable to a particular independent activity of business. The expenditure should partake of the very source of profit, namely, the particular business activity and it is taken into account as an outgoing in ascertaining the profits. The aggregation of the profits derived from several independent business activities can make no difference to this particular phenomenon involved in the process o ascertaining the profits from each business activity. On that view we answer the question against the assessee with costs Counsel s fee Rs. 250.

1969 (2) TMI 36 - MADRAS HIGH COURT
Estate Duty Act, 1953 - property - chargebility to estate duty ... ... ... ... ..... der section 21(2) of the Act shows that even the interest of a simple mortgagee in the hypotheca is treated as movable property for the purpose of the Act. The same provision further shows that only the interest of a mortgagee in possession will be considered as immovable property. That we think is an indication that, unless the deceased had a direct interest in the land in the shape of possession thereof, merely because under the general law he has an interest as a mortgagee in the hypotheca, such interest cannot be considered to be immovable property. We answer the question against the accountable persons but make it clear that it is only the compensation that the deceased was entitled to receive in respect of lands notified during his lifetime for being taken over that would be includible in the principal value of the estate of the deceased, and that the sum of Rs. 77,227 was rightly included in such principal value. The revenue is entitled to costs. Counsel s fee Rs. 250.
