He has told me in course of his arguments, although nothing is stated in the petition, that when his lawyer gave that advice, out of decency or courtesy he accepted the advice and decided on filing his petition on the 17th April, 1967.

Ramulu Naidu(1), this is what this Court observed Where an officer at the time of making an assessment order was silent about the imposition of penalty, it must be taken that the assessing authority had applied its mind but did not think it necessary to levy a penalty. That would amount to an order which may fall well within the phrase an order passed in section 32(1). If there is an order passed within the m....... + More

With the adoption of modern methods of processing and preservation like canning and quick-freezing, a new chapter has opened in the history of the Indian seafood Industry, about a decade ago.

One very significant aspect of the developments during the last few years was the rapid expansion in the exports of frozen and canned seafoods in contrast with the decline in the exports of traditional items, like dried fish and dried prawns.

It should be understood only as one mode of proof of the fact that the second sales are to registered dealers. But the revenue cannot insist that the dealer is bound to produce declarations in Form C in order to qualify himself for exemption. All that the revenue can require the dealer to do is to prove that the second sales were to registered dealers and th....... + More

We find, therefore, that the departmental authorities as also the Tribunal were in error in rejecting the E-I Forms on the ground that they were filed only before the Appellate Assistant Commissioner. For the revenue it is pointed out that on the view taken by it and the Tribunal it was not examined whether the E-I Forms were in order. W....... + More

The assessee, who is the petitioner, sought to rectify the defect at the stage of the appeal before the Appellate Assistant Commissioner. But he disallowed the appeal on the ground that the letters produced were belated and he had no power to condone the delay. The further appeal of the assessee failed on the same ground, the Tribunal relying on Deputy Commissioner of Commercial Taxes v. Parekutti Hajee Sons 1962 13 S.T........ + More

The consequences are the same as if the contract were voidable by the company, and indeed I do not think there is more than a verbal difference between saying that the contract is unenforceable by the director and saying that it is voidable by the company. In this case, therefore, the two contracts were only voidable, and on the facts it is conceded that....... + More
