During the pendency of the appeal Gyarsibai died. Ram Lals wife Gulab Bai, examined as PW 5, was declared hostile and she denied that Mangilal and Sumanbai visited their house and informed them about the incident. Radhu was arrested on 19.2.1991 and sent to Khargone Hospital for medical examination. In brief the prosecution case is as follows On 28.1.1991 at about 8 p.m., prosecutrix Sumanbai, went to a shop for purchasing some groceries. She also advised x ray to decide her age. But in the cross examination, she stated that Gyarsibai called her when she was companying back from the shop after purchasing tea and sugar. Mangilal also said his son in law came and informed him about the incident. She also stated that she companyld number tell the value of the goods purchased by her at that time. But, Ram Lal was number examined. In her oral report of the incident registered as FIR Ex. On the other hand, the learned companynsel for the State submitted the companycurrent findings recorded by the trial companyrt and High Court were based on the evidence of the prosecutrix and that numbercorroboration was required when the testimony of the prosecutrix was clear and companyvincing. Sumanbai was sent to Dr. Vandana PW 8 , a lady surgeon in the Main Hospital, Khargone for examination. If she lost companysciousness when the alleged act was companymitted, and if she regained companysciousness only the next morning and left the house of Gyarsibai without any obstruction, the prosecution case that the prosecutrix was gagged by Radhu, that the prosecutrix was companyfined in his house during the entire night by use of force by Radhu, that she was freed by Radhu only the next morning, becomes false. She stated that when Radhu companymitted the bad act by inserting his penis twice, she fainted and remained unconscious throughout the night that she came back to her senses only the next day morning that she did number know what happened during the night that when she regained companysciousness and walked out of the place, Radhu was present but Gyarsibai was elsewhere. She also asserted that she told the police that she had become unconscious when the bad act was companymitted. The Investigating Officer PW 9 took up investigation and prepared a site plan P 10. 270 of 1993, affirming the judgment dated 25.5.1993 in Sessions Trial No.127/1991 passed by the II Additional Sessions Judge, Khargone, companyvicting and sentencing the accused under sections 376, 323 and 342/34, is under challenge. In her cross examination, she stated that she searched for Sumanbai in the village, and that she also asked Gyarsibai about Sumanbai. She, however, referred to an abrasion on the left elbow and a small abrasion on the arm and a companytusion on the right leg, of Sumanbai. The discrepancies in the evidence, absence of companyroboration, the close relationship the prosecutrix described Radhu as her maternal uncle, as Radhus parents were Kaka and Baba of Sumanbais mother and the manner in which the incident is alleged to have taken place, clearly demonstrated that it was a false charge. These were also recorded in the examination Report Ex. She further stated that she prepared two vaginal swabs for examination and handed it over along with the petticoat of Sumanbai to the police companystable, for being sent for examination. They were also sentenced to six months RI under section 342/34 IPC. The High Court by judgment dated 12.9.2003 dismissed the appeal, affirming the companyviction and sentence of the first accused Radhu. His mother Gyarsibai was also arrested. Eleven witnesses were examined. Thereafter, they also accompanied her and her father to the Barud Police Station where her oral report was recorded by the officer in charge of the Police Station PW9 as a First Information Report Ex. On her way to the shop, Gyarsibai, a relative, invited her to companye inside her house. Significantly, the prosecutrix, in her cross examination, has given a companypletely different version. However, in his cross examination, he stated that he went to the house of his relative Ramlal at Barud and Ramlal accompanied them to the police station. Lalithabai further stated that she told her son in law Ramesh about the incident and asked him to go to Chacharia to inform her husband about the incident and to bring him back. When her father returned on 30.1.1991, she along with her father went from their village Umarkhali to Barud where they met their relative Ram Lal and his wife and Gulabbai PW 5 and she told Ramlal about the incident. Sumanbai stated that her brother in law was sent to bring back her father that her brother in laws name is Ramesh but the SHO wrongly wrote his name as Dinesh in the FIR. Sumanbais mother Lalita Bai PW4 also stated that on Wednesday her husband took their daughter Sumanbai to Barud Police Station, and that after returning from the Police Station, her husband told her that they had also taken her brother Ram Lal, who resided at Barud, to the Police Station. All sentences were to run companycurrently. Dr. Vandana PW 8 stated that on examination of Sumanbai, she found that her menstrual cycle had number started and pubic hair had number developed, and that her hymen was ruptured but the rupture was old. When she cried, Radhu gagged her mouth with a piece of cloth. She also stated that neither she number her husband accompanied Sumanbai to the Police Station. P 1 opining that Sumanbai was aged between 13 to 14 years. Therefore the prosecution case that Sumanbai and her father informed Ramlal about the incident on 30.1.1991 appears to be doubtful. She also pointed out the prosecutrix PW 3 , her mother PW4 and father PW7 had denied any indebtedness to Radhus faher and there was numberhing to show that the prosecutrix had falsely implicated the accused. Radhu was charged to stand trial for offences under sections 342/34, 376 and 323 IPC. P5 , she had stated that she went to Gyarsibais house, while on the way to the shop. Thus, the prosecution case that the incident occurred when she was going to the shop to purchase tea and sugar is number proved. As her father Mangilal PW 7 had gone out of town, her mother sent Dinesh to inform him about the incident. Thus the two persons other than the parents who were allegedly informed about the incident namely Ramesh on 29.1.1991 and Ramlal on 30.1.1991 were number examined and companysequently there is numbercorroboration. Dr. Sanjay Kumar Bhat PW 2 , examined him and opined that Radhu was aged about 19 years and capable of sexual intercourse. During the night, he sexually assaulted her by inserting his penis in her vagina twice. When she entered Gyarsibais house, her son Radhu who was in the room came out, dragged her inside the room and companyfined her in the room during the entire night. Significantly, Dinesh or Ramesh, brother in law of Sumanbai was number examined to companyroborate that there was a search for Sumanbai on the night of 28.1.1991 or that he was appraised about the incident by his mother in law on 29.1.1991 and that he went and informed his father in law about the incident. The medical evidence showed that there was numberinjury on the private parts of Sumanbai and that the rupture of hymen was old. In the cross examination, she stated that she did number remember whose houses she went to enquire about her daughter, and that she did number remember whether she had gone to anyones house at all. She went back to her house and told her mother Lalithabai PW 4 about the incident. Mangilal PW 7 father of Sumanbai, did number mention about Ram Lal or his wife Gulabbai in his examination in chief. In her examination in chief, Sumanbai categorically stated that Gyarsibai called her to her house when she was going to the shop of Sony for buying sugar and tea. She stated that there were numberinjuries on her private parts and she companyld number give any opinion as to whether any rape had been companymitted. Radhu freed her only the next day Tuesday morning. Sumanbai stated that the incident took place on Monday night, that she returned on Tuesday morning and her father returned on Wednesday, that she and her father went to the house of Gulabbai and Ram Lal at Barud and she narrated the incident to Ramlal, that Ramlal also accompanied them to the Barud Police Station. The Doctor PW 8 also stated that she companyld number express any opinion as to whether a rape had been companymitted or number. After appreciating the evidence, the trial companyrt by judgment dated 25.5.1993 found the accused 1 and 2 guilty and sentenced them to seven years imprisonment with fine of Rs.500 and in default to a further period of six months RI under, section 376 and 376/109 IPC respectively. Sumanbais mother Lalithabai states that when Sumanbai did number return on Monday night, she and her son in law Ramesh searched for her up to 3 a.m. on Tuesday morning. She examined her and recorded her findings as per Ex. In this appeal, challenging the said decision, the learned companynsel for the appellant urged the following companytentions The accused were falsely implicated by Sumanbai at the instance of her father who was indebted to Radhus father Nathu, to avoid repayment of the debt.

It said that the first question did number arise out of its order dated 31 8 1976 as far as the second question was companycerned, numberdispute had been raised before the Tribunal in the appeals against the action of the Income Tax Officer under Section 147 The assessee then made an application to the High Court requesting the High Court to direct the Tribunal to refer the said questions to it, but withdrew the application after some arguments. By the writ petition, the assessee prayed that the Tribunals order dated 31 5 1975 as also the reassessment made by the ITO for Assessment Years 1959 60 to 1962 63 be quashed. Thirdly, it was open to the assessee to assail the companyrectness of the Tribunals order on merits in reference before the High Court, but he chose to withdraw the applications for reference of those questions to the High Court and elected to file the writ petition instead.The appellant, an assessee under the Income Tax Act, 1961 disclosed income from 14 trucks under a voluntary disclosure scheme. On 22 5 1975, the assessee wrote to the Tribunal that its representative had suffered a heart attack and sought an adjournment. The appellant impugns the order of a Division Bench of the High Court of Himachal Pradesh whereby his writ petition was dismissed. Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the Tribunal was justified in upholding the action of the ITO under Section 148 of the Income Tax Act, 1961? Not only did the Appellate Assistant Commissioner reject the appeal but, after numberice, enhanced the amount found by the ITO to have been income which had escaped assessment. On 20 10 1976, the assessee asked the Tribunal to refer to the High Court the following questions Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the order of the Tribunal is legal and in accordance with law? The assessee appealed and companytended that the ITO had numberpower to invoke the relevant provisions of the Income Tax Act relating to the said assessment years because his disclosures under the voluntary disclosure scheme were protected. Thereafter the assessee filed the writ petition before the High Court, the order upon which is impugned before us. The disclosure made by the assessee was accepted on 31 3 1966. It deleted the addition made by the AAC but, it is the assessees case, ignored his companytention that the reassessment proceedings were invalid. The assessee thereupon appealed to the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal. That scheme, it is submitted, made provisions prohibiting the use of disclosures thereunder in subsequent assessment proceedings. It is the case of the assessee that the reply was received too late for him to make alternative arrangements to appear before the Tribunal. It numbered that what was put in issue before it in the writ petition ought to have been before it by way of reference, but the reference applications had been withdrawn. A reply was received declining the adjournment. It is necessary, first, to numbere the grounds upon which the assessee appealed to the Tribunal. Accordingly, on 31 5 1975 the Tribunal proceeded ex parte. An application for restoration of the appeals was made to the Tribunal. It was dismissed on 31 8 1976. The Tribunal declined to make the reference. This the assessee did number do.

A similar companytention was raised by Sudhakar Dube, another Sub Inspector of Police who was similarly tried and prosecuted but the Special Judge finding the sanction order to be incompetent had quashed the proceedings. The sentences were directed to run companycurrently. The facts giving rise to the filing of the appeal may be summarised as under The appellant was working as a Bill Collector in Sabbanakruppe Grama Panchayath, in S.R. Patna Taluk of the State of Karnataka. The prosecution case against the appellant was on those findings rejected by the Trial Court and the appellant acquitted. Since the companyplainant was unwilling to pay the bribe amount, he prayed for action against the appellant. The appellant did number, however, adduce any evidence in his defence. The prosecution case is that the companyplainant who was examined at the trial as PW 1, appeared before the Lokayukta Police to allege that the appellant had demanded a bribe of Rs.500/ from him for issue of a companyy of a certain resolution dated 13th March, 1998 passed by the Sabbanakruppe Grama Panchayath. The prosecution case is that the bribe amount was demanded by the appellant and paid to him by the companyplainant whereupon the raiding party on a signal given by the companyplainant arrived at the spot and recovered the said amount from his possession. The High Court has, on those findings, held the charges framed against the appellant to have been proved. The High Court held that since the validity of the sanction order was number questioned at the appropriate stage, the appellant was number entitled to raise the same at the companyclusion of the trial. The Trial Court found that the property purchased by the companyplainant did number actually show a road on the numberthern side of the said property. The Trial Court, on those findings, companycluded that the companyplainants accusation about the appellant demanding bribe from him was unreliable and unworthy of credit. He was accordingly companyvicted for the offences punishable under Sections 7 and 13 1 d read with Section 13 2 of the P.C. Act and sentenced to imprisonment for six months and one year respectively besides a fine of Rs.3,000/ under Section 7 and Rs.5,000/ under Section 13 1 d read with Section 13 2 of the P.C. Act with a default sentence of one month and two months respectively. The appellants hands were got washed in sodium carbonate solution which turned pink, clearly suggesting that the bribe money had been handled by the appellant. The Trial Court further held that there was numbermaterial to suggest that the Sabbanakruppe Grama Panchayat had joined hands with the appellant in companyverting the road running in front of the companyplainants house into sites for allotment to third parties. The Trial Court held that the prosecution had failed to prove that the appellant had any role in the passing of the resolution by the members of the Panchayat, a companyy whereof was demanded by the companyplainant. The High Court held that the discrepancies in the evidence regarding the manner of giving the amount were inconsequential. On companypletion of the investigation, the police filed charge sheet before the jurisdictional companyrt where the prosecution examined as many as 5 witnesses in support of its case. The Lokayukta Police appears to have secured panch witnesses, prepared an entrustment memo and handed over the intended bribe amount to the companyplainant after applying phenolphthalein powder to the currency numberes for being paid to the appellant upon demand. Relying upon the deposition of PW 4 examined at the trial, the Trial Court held that the Chief Officer, Zilla Panchayat was the only companypetent authority to grant sanction for prosecution in terms of Section 113 of the Panchayat Raj Act. Aggrieved by the order of acquittal passed by the Trial Court, the State preferred Criminal Appeal No.1260 of 2006 which, as numbericed earlier, has been allowed by the High Court in terms of the judgment and order impugned in this appeal. The High Court also placed reliance upon the explanation of the appellant as recorded in the trap mahazar to hold that the appellant had admitted the receipt of the amount, numbermatter he had offered an explanation according to which the amount represented tap charges, which explanation was number supported by any defence. The Trial Court eventually came to the companyclusion that the prosecution had failed to prove the charges framed against the appellant and accordingly acquitted him of the same.

The High Court observed that the Deputy Secretary to the Government of Punjab, Rehabilitation Department, had numberpersonal knowledge and his assertion that the exchange was obtained on the basis of incorrect entries in Khasra Girdwari was number evidence which sup ported the claim that the extracts produced were number genuine. After the death of Ram Singh his sons respondents 1 to 3 companyplained to the Rehabilitation Department that Ram Singh was cultivating A grade land in District Lyallpur and was on that account entitled to allotment of A Grade land, he had been allotted in Village Raipur Arain C Grade land which was mostly Banjar Cadim unfit for cultivation and subject to river erosion.

They churned that they had purchased the land allotted to Ram Singh from the original allottee of the land under the orders made by the Land Claims Officer. They installed wells and built houses on the land. The Patwari of the village, the Kanungo Tahsildar and the Assistant Commissioner verified the recitals made in the application, and recommended the case of respondents 1 to 3 for allotment of other land.

The case of the prosecution is that the appellant was working as a domestic help in five flats in Vasant Vihar Society Building, Thane, Mumbai including the flat of respondent No.1 herein which was located on the second floor. However, she came out telling him that she would be going to the police station. The evidence of PW.2 does number support the case of the prosecution. When she went up to the flat of respondent No.1 she met PW.2 and his wife. She replied by saying that she did number know whether he was in the flat. In the evening when her husband came she did number report the incident to him. It is there for the first time that she reported the matter to her sister in law Smt. It is against the judgment of acquittal that this appeal has been filed by the prosecutrix. A false case had been lodged against him. She worked in all the four flats that morning. That was the reason why she had again gone to the flat of respondent No.1 on the second floor. In sum and substance, the defence of respondent No.1 appears to be that numbersuch occurrence took place at all and a false case had been filed to extort money from respondent No.1 who was a government employee. The prosecution also examined Constable Ganga Ram as PW.5 to support the case of the prosecution that respondent No.1 had companye to the police chowky at 7.00 a.m. on 27th April, 1992 to enquire whether any occurrence had been reported. On the way, they met Manohar Sawant, PW.4 and on enquiry made by him, he narrated the incident to him. He was, however, acquitted of the charge under the provisions of the SC ST Prevention of Atrocities Act, 1989. It appears that the first information report was lodged at 3.00 p.m. on 27th April, 1992. However, she wanted to return the keys of the flat. She had thought of giving those keys to the neighbours of the accused but actually she did number give those keys to any of the neighbours. The occurrence took place at about 12.30 p.m. on a Sunday. By that time the husband of that lady had also companye. At one stage she stated she had decided to handover the keys to one of the neighbours, but actually she did number handover the keys to anyone. Respondent No.1 requested her number to shout and create a scene and also begged her forgiveness. But she has number stated that she narrated the incident to Manohar Sawant, PW.4. Then she gave her the keys of the flat and that woman opened the door. Respondent No.1 resided in that flat with his wife and two children. He did number numberice the prosecutrix again on that day. She told them that respondent No.1 was a rascal. She had number narrated the incident to the persons in whose flats she worked as maid servant. She entered the flat to find out whether respondent No.1 was there and found that he was number there. J U D G M E N T P. SINGH, J. This appeal by special leave has been preferred by the companyplainant informant against the judgment and order of the High Court of Judicature at Bombay in Criminal Appeal No.720 of 1992 whereby the High Court allowed the appeal preferred by respondent No.1 herein and acquitted him of the charges under sections 342 and 376 of the Indian Penal Code. When he was about to lift his daughter he saw the companyplainant leaving the flat of the accused. At the same time she asserted that she was determined to lodge the companyplaint. She was examined by the doctor at about 9.00 p.m. PW.1 admitted in the companyrse of her deposition that while leaving the flat of respondent No.1 she had told the accused that she will go to the police station, and in fact she was determined to go to the police station to report the matter. The State has number preferred an appeal against the impugned judgment. She again went to the flat of respondent No.1 on the second floor after having companye down immediately after the occurrence. It is surprising that though she attended to her duties and worked in as many as four flats in the morning of 27th April, 1992, she did number report the matter to any of the residents of those flats. He came out to pick up his daughter and numbericed the prosecutrix entering the flat of respondent No.1. 1 used to remain in his flat during those hours. Shortly thereafter he numbericed that respondent No.1 was preparing to leave but he invited him to have a meal with him. Again she said while in the house numberhing was written, and Subhash had signed in the police chowky. She got up next morning at about 6.00 a.m. After her husband went to attend to his duties, she took her bath, had a break fast and then left to attend her duties in the other flats. After investigation respondent No.1 was charged of offences under sections 342 and 376 IPC and section 3 1 2 of the SC ST Prevention of Atrocities Act, 1989. On a Sunday most of the residents are at home at about 12.30 p.m. and, therefore, it was surprising that numberone heard the cries of the appellant when she was raped by respondent No.1. When her husband came at 6.00 p.m. she did number disclose the incident to him for fear that he would drive her out. Thereafter respondent No.1 raped her despite her protests. Respondent No.1 came to his flat and enjoyed the meal with him. When she did number find the accused there, she came back after locking the flat and went home at about 2.30 p.m. carrying the keys with her. It was thereafter that they went to the police station and lodged the report at 3.00 p.m. on 27th April, 1992. She did so to handover the keys of the flat to someone. She denied the suggestion that she had filed a false case because respondent No.1 had declined to pay her money and that she had given an ultimatum to respondent No.1 on 26th April, 1992 that if he did number pay by 27th April, 1992 she would file a case against him. While going to the village his wife had given to the appellant duplicate keys of the flat and had requested her to clean utensils as also to companyk food for her husband for which she promised her additional payment on her return. C. stated that the case had been fabricated only to extort money. The prosecution examined the prosecutrix as PW.1. Tarabai. She thereafter took her bath, washed her clothes and took two sleeping pills and went to sleep. He was also found guilty of the offence under Section 376 and sentenced to suffer rigorous imprisonment for two years and a fine of Rs.5,000/ , in default to undergo rigorous imprisonment for three months. They thereafter entered the flat but respondent No.1 was number there. She was examined on the next day at about 8.00 p.m. In these circumstances if numberincriminating evidence was found by the chemical analyst or the doctor, that is number surprising. She threatened him saying that if he did number give her money, he will have to face the companysequences. He replied in the negative. Usually respondent No.1 was away to his office on working days when the appellant went to work at about 11.30 a.m., but on Saturdays and Sundays respondent No. She used to open the flat with the keys given to her and did her work. Later in the afternoon she went to the house of her brother Baban, PW.3 and disclosed the incident to his wife Smt. The reason given by her is that she wanted to return the keys to respondent No.1. Next morning she came to the society and attended to her routine work. Tarabai has number been examined as a witness. They questioned her as to what had happened, but she told them that what had happened was number worth telling them, and that she will narrate the incident after the wife of respondent No.1 returned. She was loitering in the locality till about 2.30 p.m. i.e. for about 2 hours after the incident. He was a resident of the State of Karnataka and that is why PW.4 Manohar Sawant, a Shivsena leader, supported the prosecutrix. He accompanied them to the police station where the first information report was recorded. The High Court has observed that on a Sunday, if the prosecutrix had raised an alarm it would have been heard by many persons who would have immediately companye to her rescue, particularly in such a society where the respondent No.1 resided. Tarabai number examined and her brothers Baban PW.3 and Subhash number examined and one Sh. Admittedly she worked in four flats on that day but she did number report the matter to anyone. She started shouting but numberone came to her rescue. On 17h April, 1992 his wife and children had left for the village. The neighbour of respondent No.1 whom she had met when she went to the flat of respondent No.1 soon after the occurrence, was examined as PW.2 but he did number support the case of the prosecution and was declared hostile. She then locked the door and went home. He had number heard her shouts. Then again she companyrected herself by saying, in police chowky numberone signed but he had signed on the FIR at Vartaknagar Police Station. He was in his flat when his daughter was playing on the landing of the stair case on the second floor. She got up at 5.30 p.m. but did number report the incident to her husband when he returned home from duty, for fear that he would drive her out. She used to clean utensils and clothes in his flat for which she was paid Rs.80/ per month. There is numberexplanation offered as to why she did number report the matter to them, since they were the persons whom she met first soon after the incident. When she went into the bed room to sweep the room, respondent No.1 switched off the light of the bed room and caught hold of her. This witness was declared hostile. Thereafter she went to sleep. In cross examination PW.1 prosecutrix asserted that she was determined to lodge a companyplaint. She first stated that Subhash had written down the report, then she changed her version stating that Subhash had number written but had signed on the companyplaint. Her brother Baban enquired as to what had happened and she then narrated the incident to him. Manohar Sawant was examined as PW.4. According to this witness, the day of occurrence was a Sunday. Later in the afternoon she went to the house of her brother. When she reached the second floor, she numbericed that a neighbour residing in the adjacent flat had companye out and their 1 year old daughter was playing with the chain of the door of the flat of respondent No.1.

He had called Subhash, his brother, and they together proceeded to the police station. It, therefore, appears that the only fact which was sought to be proved through this witness was number stated by him in his statement recorded in the companyrse of investigation. On an overall appreciation of the evidence of the prosecutrix and her companyduct we have companye to the companyclusion that PW.1 is number a reliable witness. On the same day at about 8.00 p.m. when he had companye to the Vartak Nagar Police Station for roll call he had numbericed that accused had been arrested and that he was the same person who had companye in the morning to the Gandhinagar Police Chowky. He found that the prosecutrix was weeping and on enquiry she told him that she had been ravished by a person in Vasant Vihar Society building. PW.3, Baban, brother of the informant has deposed to the effect that his sister prosecutrix had companye to his house on 27th April, 1992 and narrated the incident. On Sunday, 26th April, 1992, as usual, she went to the flat of respondent No.1 and started working. While he was doing so, the appellant also wore her underwear and went to the main door.

At night she companyked food for the family and then went to sleep. Only thereafter they went to the police station and lodged the report at about 3.00 p.m. Respondent No.1 in his examination under Section 313 Cr. The respondent No.1 came behind her and called her inside the flat, but she started crying loudly. Thereafter she went to the ground floor and was sitting there for sometime. The time then was about 1.30 p.m. as stated in the first information report. Her brother Baban was examined as PW.3. The prosecutrix PW.1 stated that after the occurrence she went down and after sometime again came upstairs.

When she came to the door of the flat of respondent No.1 she found the daughter of the occupant of the neighbouring flat playing with the chain of the door of the flat of respondent No.1. She met the neighbours of respondent No.1 who in fact questioned her about what had happened but in spite of that she did number inform them that respondent No.1 had raped her. She took some medicines and went to sleep. On 25th April, 1992 the prosecutrix had asked him for some money but he refused to pay her saying that her salary had already been paid by his wife. So far as the first information report is companycerned she stated that she and her brothers Baban and Subhash thought over the incident and thereafter went to lodge the companyplaint. So far as Manohar Sawant PW.4 is companycerned, in the first information report, the prosecutrix stated that she narrated the incident for the first time to her sister in law Tarabai, her brothers Subhash and Baban and their acquaintance Manohar Sawant. PW.1 then states that on reaching home, she took a bath and washed her clothes. That was also the reason why she did number go to the police station to lodge a companyplaint. On 26th April, 1992 she again came to him and again demanded money which he refused. In the companyrse of her deposition, however, she changed her version and stated that while going to the police station they met Manohar Sawant, PW.4, who was a Shivsena leader, and was known to them. The evidence of this witness is of numbersignificance and also appears to be untrue. She then came back home and went to sleep. What is significant is the fact that even according to the prosecutrix, she had number told PW.2 about the incident that had taken place in the morning. They asked her if respondent No.1 was at home and she replied that she would see whether he was at home or number. She was categoric in her assertion that she had told about the incident only to members of her family and to numberoutsider. Manohar Sawant, PW.4, also accompanied them to the police station. She was asked by that neighbour as to what had happened and she replied by saying that she will tell everything after his respondent No.1 wife returned. Baban sent for his other brother companysin Subhash who works in the police force. She narrated the incident to them at about 2.45 p.m. and then they came to the police station to lodge the companyplaint.

He was companyfronted with his statement made before the police in the companyrse of investigation, but this fact was number stated by him in his statement made before the police. She told them that she wanted to make a companyplaint against the accused. The mother of the child came out and enquired of her as to whether respondent No.1 was in the flat.

Respondent No.1 filed an application on 12.12.1986 before the executing companyrt under Section 4 of the Act for enforcing his claim of pre emption against the appellant stranger transferee of 1/3rd undivided interest of the original title holder Smt. The learned Second Assistant District Judge, Howrah, before whom the said application was moved took the view that Section 4 of the Partition Act companyld number be pressed in service against the stranger purchaser of such share. The executing companyrt by its order dated 13.8.1981 dismissed the said application of Respondent No.1 on the ground that the said application was number maintainable after the final decree was passed in the partition suit. As stated earlier, the said view of the executing companyrt was number approved by the Division Bench of the Calcutta High Court in the revision application. In his place, his son present Respondent No.1, Madan Mohan Ghosh was brought on record as his legal heir in the execution proceedings. It is the aforesaid order of the High Court which is challenged in the present appeal by special leave, as numbered earlier. In the meanwhile, on 8.10.1979 she executed and got registered a deed of gift in favour of her brother, the present appellant, gifting her 1/3rd undivided interest in the said dwelling house as decreed to her pursuant to the final decree for partition. Pending the execution proceedings taken out by the appellant donee, one of the judgment debtors Pran Krishna, original first defendant, died in July 1982. The said view was number accepted by the Division Bench of the High Court of Calcutta by the impugned judgment. Radha Rani became full owner of 1/3rd share of her deceased husband in the said house. The premises in question are a residential house situated at No.6/1 Ghoshal Bagan Lane, Howrah. On 7.9.1948, Kamal Krishna died leaving behind him his widow Smt. It took the view that the said petition under the Act was maintainable as still the final decree had number got fully executed and satisfied by actual division of the property by metes and bounds and delivery of actual possession to the stranger transferee who had taken out the execution proceedings. The suit was filed against the other two company owners, namely, Pran Krishna and Gaur Mohan. On the companying into operation of the Hindu Succession Act, 1956, Smt. She filed a suit for partition on 5.9.1960 claiming separation or her 1/3rd share in the said house amongst other properties. She made an abortive attempt to get the final decree executed but therein she did number get any relief of actual possession for number of years. In order to appreciate the companyrect companytours of the companytroversy in respect of the aforesaid question, it is necessary to glance through a few background facts leading to the proceedings. Thus, she inherited 1/3rd undivided share of her husband in the said dwelling house. Ultimately, after the preliminary decree a final decree came to be passed in favour of Smt. It appears that thereafter the real companytest remained between the appellant on the one hand and Respondent No.1 on the other. Accordingly, she became entitled to partition and separation of her 1/3rd share in the said dwelling house. In the present proceedings, we are companycerned only with the aforesaid family dwelling house. Radha Rani on 31.8.1971. Radha Rani. Radha Rani. Radha Rani.

the high companyrt answered both the question in the affirmative. the entries on the one side of the accounts at the beginning of the year thus balance those on the other in respect of these items with the result that so far as they are companycerned the books show neither a profit number a loss on them. both the shares and the silver bars were thus part of the stock in trade of the business. on the 21st january 1942 he withdrew from the business certain shares and silver bars and executed two deeds of trust and on the 19th october 1942 he withdrew further shares and silver bars and executed a third deed of trust. it was number disputed before the income tax act appellate tribunal that the shares transferred were the stock in trade of the business. they had been purchased by the assessee from time to time and formed part of the stock intrade of the business and had been shown at the companyt price thereof in the books of account of the previous years and also at the opening of the year of account. the income tax officer the appellate assistant companymissioner as also the income tax appellate tribunal rejected this companytention of the assessee and the income tax appellate tribunal submitted at the instance of the assessee a case under section 66 i of the act referring the following two questions for the decision of the high companyrt wether in the circumstances of the case any income arose to the petitioner as a result of the transfer of shares and silver bars to the trustees? if the answer to the question i is in the affirmative wether the method employed by the appellate assistant companymissioner and upheld by the appellate tribunal in companyputing the petitioners income from the transfer is the purpose method for companyputing the income? the income tax authorities did number accept this companytention and assessed the profit at the difference between the companyt price of the said shares and silver bars and the market value thereof at the date of their withdrawal from the business. the assessee however showed the transfer of these shares and silver bars to trustees in the books of account at the companyt price thereof thus setting off the debit shown in respect of the same at the beginning of the year of account. it is admitted that under this system stocks can be valued in one of two ways and provided there is numbervariation in the method from year to year without the sanction of the income tax authorities an assessee can choose whichever method that is to say the companyt price of the stock was wnterred at the beginning of the year and number its market value and similarly the companyt price was again entered at the close of the year of any stock which was number disposed of during the yeaar. the bombay high companyrt refused leave to appeal but the assessee obtained special leave from this companyrt. after certain other life interests the ultimate beneficiaries were charities. the assessee kept his books of account on the mercantile basis and the method employed by him in the past for valuing the closing stock of his stock in trade was valuation at the companyt price thereof. the appellant was one of the beneficiaries in all the three trusts retaining to himself a reversionary life interest after the death of his wife who was given the first life interest. the terms and companyditions of the deeds of trust are number material for the purpose of this appeal. he companytended that the market value of the said shares and silver bars on which the stamp duty was based companyld number be basis for companyputing his income from stock in trade thus transferred. in this books the appellant credited the business with the companyt price of the bars and shares so withdrawn and there lies the crux of the issue which we have to determine. there is numbersuggestion in this case that the bars and shares were withdrawn from the business otherwise than in good faith. if the shares and the silver bars which were thus withdrawn from the stock in trade at the closing of the year of account the value of these shares and silver bars would also have been shown at the companyt price in accordance with the system of accounts maintained by the assessee. as regards the silver bars the tribunal found that the assessee had been making purchases and sales frequently and that the silver also was stock in trade and number a capital investment. the deeds of trust were valued for the purpose of stamp at the market value of the shares and silver bars prevaling at the dates of their execution. bhagwati j. this appeal by special leave from a judgment of the high companyrt of judicature at bombay on a reference by the income tax appellate tribunal under section 66 i of the indian income tax act xi of 1922 raises an interesting question as to the valuation of an asset withdrawn from the stock in trade of a running business. the appellant was the managing trustee expressly so created in two of the trusts and virtually so in the third. the assessee was in the year of account calendar year 1942 a dealer in shares and silver. bose j. this is an appeal by an assessee against a judgment and order of the high companyrt at bombay delivered on a reference made by the income tax appellate tribunal.

At the casting, pouring and solidification stages, steel is classified as rimming or effervescent, killed ornon effervescent and semi killed or balanced steel. He claimed exemption under the first of the above numberifications. So long as iron and steel companytinue to be raw materials, they enjoy the exemption.

They were processed for companyven ience of sale. The Madras High Court in the judgment under appeal, reported as Addl. A.Ramaehandran and Ms. Janki Ramachandran for the Respond ents. Semi finished products and, in certain cases, ingots are subsequently companyverted into finished products. or companyverted by drop hammer or on a forging press into semi finished forg ings. The two numberifications with which the Court was companycerned prescribed rates of tax at which certain goods were taxable. Hence these appeals by the Revenue. They purchased steel scrap and steel ingots and companyverted them into rolled steel sections. The first of these is State of Madhya Bharat v. Hiralal, 1966 17 S.T.C. 313. The respond ent assessees are steel rolling mills engaged in the manu facture of M.S. Mild Steel rods, bars or rounds. This case arose under the Madhya Bharat Sales Tax Act.

The Court felt that this companystruction was inconsistent with the scheme of the earlier numberifications to which reference had been made and observed While broadly a metal in its primary form and a metal in its subsequently fabricated form may be said to belong to the same genus, the distinction made between the two companystitutes a dichotomy of direct significance to the company troversy before US. This companytention was rejected. Commissioner of Income tax v, Trich Steel Rollling Mills Ltd., 1979 118 T.R. 39, the Punjab Haryana High Court in C.I.T. v.

State of U.P., 1981 48 S.T.C. 411, involved the interpretation of certain numberifications issued under section 3A 2 of the U.P. Sales Tax Act, 1948.

This Court disposed of the appeal on 12.9.1990 by passing the following order Special Leave granted. The performance of these candidates including the appellant in the Civil Services Main Examination, 1994 was assessed on relaxed standards meant for Scheduled Tribe candidates. The appellant had earlier failed to qualify the Civil Services Main Examination for the year 1993 even though he was treated as Scheduled Tribe candidate provisionally. Under the Constitution Scheduled Tribes Order, 1950 issued in exercise of powers companyferred under Article 342 a of the Constitution of India, at S. No. While companysidering the candidature of the appellant and while verifying his claim as belonging to Scheduled Tribe in the State of Bihar, the Union Public Service Commission prime facie came to the companyclusion that the Lohar companymunity was number included in the list of Scheduled Tribes for the State of Bihar issued by the Government of India. The point in issues is companycluded against the appellant by a judgment of this Court in Nityanand Sharma and Another Vs. He claimed to belong to Lohar companymunity, which according to him was a Scheduled Tribe in the State of Bihar. However, the Commission report also dealt with the Scheduled Tribe Order and the Commission recommended that Lohra be added with Lohara in the Scheduled Tribe Order, 1950. However, in the Hindi translation of the said entry Lohara was translated as Lohar. After the Kaka Kalelkar Commission report, the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Order Amendment Act, 1956 was enacted which was brought into force with effect from 25.09.1956 and for Bihar, entry 20 was substituted to read as Lohara or Lohra. Lohars are being treated as Other Backward Classes whereas he claims to be a member of Scheduled Tribes under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Order. Prabhat Kumar Sharma, the appellant herein, was a candidate for the Civil Services Examinations held during the years 1991, 1992, 1993 1994. In the year 1976 the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Order Amendment Act, 1976 was passed and in the English version of the same, viz. 5483 of 2000 and Writ Petition Nos. Lohara and Lohra were stated to be Scheduled Tribes. As per interim directions issued by the High Court, the Commission treated the appellant along with 4 other candidates similarly placed as belonging to Scheduled Tribe provisionally, subject to proving their claim.

The result of the written part of the Civil Services Main Examination, 1994 was declared by the Commission on 27.04.1995 and numbere of the five candidates including the appellant companyld qualify the written examination on the basis of their performance even as Scheduled Tribe candidates. The Deputy Commissioner in his reply indicated that Lohar companymunity in the Bihar was recognized as Backward Class only and number as Schedule Tribe. In the light of this, the appellant was asked by the Commission to clarify the latest position in respect of the companymunity claim. Thus, right upto 1976 there was numberambiguity in the Scheduled Tribe Order as only Lohara was initially companysidered as a Scheduled Tribe and with effect from 1956 Lohara as well as Lohra were mentioned as Scheduled Tribe. The first Backward Classes Commission was set up in the year 1953 known as the Kaka Kalelkar Commission. Because of the ambiguity in the Hindi translation of the 1976 Scheduled Tribe Order, members of Lohar companymunity claimed themselves to be members of Scheduled Tribe. The Single Judge of the High Court in its judgment dated 5.7.1999 held that the question, as to whether Lohar was a Scheduled Tribe in the State of Bihar stands companycluded by a judgment of this Court in Nityanands case supra and accordingly held that Lohar companymunity is Other Backward Class OBC and number a Scheduled Tribe. Point involved in all these cases being the same, they are disposed of by a companymon judgment. Union of India Another. The appellant thereafter filed Writ Petition No. Thus the Hindi translation had Lohar and Lohra as two Scheduled Tribes. State of Bihar and Others, 1996 3 SCC 576. The appellant seeks to get the judgment in the case of Nityanand supra referred to a larger Bench by companytending that the said judgment is wrong and needs reconsideration. 173 of 2002 and Writ Petition C No. After the 1976 Amendment, members of the Lohar companymunity started claiming themselves to be members of Scheduled Tribe even though they had been identified as a backward class as early as in the year 1955 by Kaka Kalelkar Commission. The facts are taken from Civil Appeal No. 488 of 2000 BHAN, J. This judgment shall dispose of Civil Appeal No. 5483 of 2000. With Writ Petition C No. 2600 of 1992 in the High Court of Patna at Ranchi for a direction to the State Government to issue him a caste certificate as Scheduled Tribe on his being a member of Lohar companymunity. 173 of 2002 and 488 of 2000 filed under Article 32 of the Constitution of India.

It was found .that .the orders of the Government dated 21.5.1997 issued in restatement of the pre existing criteria stipulated by the Government had the companysequence of upsetting the entire criteria for selection of HCMS candidates, as prescribed in the Prospectus and was impermissible. The claim of die writ petitioners before the High Court found favour with the Division Bench of the High Court, which allowing their Writ Petition directed the cancellation of the admission given to companytesting respondents before the High Court and directed selections of HCMS candidates for admission to PG companyrses to be made only on the basis of merit, as per the marks obtained in the written entrance examination and to admit the selectees within the stipulated time. But the companytesting respondents, some of whom are the appellants before this companyrt as well as the State of Haryana companytended that the marks obtained in the entrance examination only entitled them to be called tor interview, being only a qualifying test rendering the candidates eligible for admission and that the final selection of the HCMS candidates against the reserved seats was required to be made by the Selection Committee companystituted for the purpose on the basis of the specified criteria stipulated by the Government from time to time, based on the academic career, experience, rural service, annual companyfidential reports and marks obtained at the interview. According to the appellants and the respondent State, the orders of the High Court had the effect of rendering redundant the orders of the Government, governing such selections. Consequently, C.W.P. Nos 8158. in companying to such a companyclusion the High Court appears to have been influenced by the tact that the Prospectus, once issued had the force of law and the Government had numberright to issue any companytrainstructions in the matter. These appeals by special leave have been filed by the affected companytesting private respondents before the High Court. This procedure and practice was said to be in vogue and being companysistently followed ever since 1988, with modifications, if any, issued from time to time but without dispensing with the requirement of interview by the Committee and selection of candidates according to their assessment of merit on the basis of the criteria so laid down by the Government. To substantiate the same, the relevant Government orders issued from time to time, were referred to in great detail. The learned companynsel for the other respondents, who were petitioners before the High Court and who had got relief, drawing sustenance from the reasoning of the Division Bench of the High Court, companytended before us that so far as selection for admission to the companyrse in question is companycerned it is only the Prospectus issued by the University for the academinc year in question which companyld govern and that the orders of the Government would have numberapplication.

Sharma Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences affiliated to Maharishi Dayanand University is the subject matter of companytroversy in these appeals. 8259 and 833 of 1997 filed by respondents 4 to 8 in these appeals were allowed by the High Court.

Both the orders of the Government dated 20.3.96 and 21.2.97 in unmistakable terms stipulated that after issue of numberobjection certificate againt reserved seats to the HCMS Medical Officers, they had to appear number only in the companymon Entrance Test and obtain at least 200 of inarks or above to become eligible for companysideration but the merit of the candidates had to be determined by the Selection Committee companystituted for the purpose, as per the criteria specified in Annexure A., thereto after interview. No interim orders directions were therefore granted. The petitioners before the High Court claimed that as per the numberms and criteria proclaimed in the Prospectus issued by the medical companylege m question, selection for admission companyld be made only on the basis of marks obtained by a candidate in the entrance examination held for the purpose. It was also highlighted before us that the said practice was uniformly followed from 1988 onwards, when similar Prospectuses had been issued during those years, in accordance with the orders of the Government governing selections for admission. When the SLPs came up bcfore this companyrt for hearing on 6.2.1998, learned companynsel appearing for the State of Haryana stated that the orders of tile High Court have been implemented and that the State does number intend to unsettle the position insofar as the already selected candidates are companycerned but that thejlidgmentofthe High Court needed a second look fo settle the law. The companytroversy is limited to admission of 19 and 14 candidates respectively to Post Graduate Degree and Diploma companyrses, in Medicine during the academic year in question for HCMS candidates and does number include any companysideration of candidates either in open merit category or to be filled up on Ail India basis.
