The best judgment was based on the inspection made on November 12, 1981 and the seizure of certain incriminating records. The split-up figures up to February 28, 1982 is because of the difference in the rate of tax. Before the appellate authority certain concessions were granted and the turnover was fixed in the following manner: For the period from April 1, 1981 to September 15, 1981 the turnover was fixed at Rs. 1,60,286.91. For the period from September 16, 1981 to March 31, 1982 it was fixed at Rs. 1,26,648.47.

Section 2(t) of the Tamil Nadu General Sales Tax Act says that the word "year" means the financial year. No doubt this definition is subject to the context being otherwise. 3.. In this view of the matter we accept the stand taken by the revenue and allow this tax revision case restoring the orders of the assessing authority and A.A.C. and setting aside the orders of the Appellate Tribunal. The tax revision case is allowed in the above manner. And this tribunal doth further order that this order on being produced be punctually observed and carried into execution by all concerned.
