Firm - refusal of registration ... ... ... ... ..... ection (3) of section 30 of the Indian Partnership Act, 1932. We do not think that clause 4 in annexure A and clause 11 in annexure B in the two partnership deeds concerned have provided for anything other than what has been done in clause 8 of the partnership deed which we then construed. If there has been no imposition of personal liability on the minors, section 30(3) of the Indian Partnership Act, 1932, is not infringed. The refusal of registration cannot be sustained. We answer question No. 1 referred to us in the negative, that is, in favour of the assessee and against the department. In the light of the answer to question No. 1, question No. 2 does not arise for consideration. This income-tax referred case is ordered as above. There will be no order as to costs. A copy of this judgment under the seal of the High Court and the signature of the Registrar will be sent to the Appellate Tribunal as required by sub-section (5) of section 66 of the Indian Income-tax Act, 1922

Loss suffered by the corporation on the sale of securities - not a capital loss ... ... ... ... ..... hough in trying to advance loans to the industries it would certainly earn interest. This is an important activity that the State has undertaken to help industrial growth in the State and, therefore, we cannot impute such motives to it as animate a private financier or a money-lender. Functions envisaged under section 25 of the Act are nothing but the activities of a Welfare State and, therefore, the corporation could not put off the question of disbursing sanctioned loans by waiting for the investment in securities to mature. In this context we are satisfied that the sale of the securities was closely linked up with the business of the corporation, so that, according to the principles laid down by the Privy Council and the Supreme Court, loss suffered on account of such a sale of securities was a trading loss. In view of what we have observed above, our answer to the question is in the negative. We leave the parties to bear their own costs. Question answered in the negative.
