It changed the measure of the penalty. 44,017 for the assessment year 1962 63. 9,604 for the assessment year 1962 63. 41,923 for the assessment year 1961 62 and Rs. 22,988/ for the assessment year 1961 62 and Rs. 34,547 for the assessment year 1962 63 and these assessments have become final. The penalty was number made dependent upon the amount of income companycealed and number on the amount of the tax sought to be avoided. The assessee filed a return which showed a larger income from the Bangkok business than had been estimated before and this was accepted. v.Rajamma, 1979 120 ITR 132 Mad Addl. In doing this the High Court followed its earlier decision in the case of Commissioner of Income tax v. Ram Achal Ram Sewak, 1977 106 ITR 144 All. However, the assessee chose to file its returns only on 27th February, 1969 disclosing the same income as in the original returns viz. Subsequently, re assessment proceedings were initiated. Admittedly, in these returns filed after 1.4.68,the assessee had failed to disclose the income from the sale of lands which was clearly taxable, if number as income from business, certainly, as income by way of capital gains, It is number settled that the law applicable regarding penalty for companycealment is the law in force as on the date of the offence i.e. 52, 185 for the assessment year 1961 62 and Rs. The returns filed by the assessee were in response to numberices under section 148 which are to be treated, in all respects, as the original returns of income filed under section 139 2 . It may be mentioned that on further appeals the total income has been reduced to Rs. It therefore, directed that the amounts of penalty should be reduced to 20 per cent of the tax payable on the amount of Capital Gains included in the assessments and number disclosed in the returns. It was, however, of opinion that since the penalty proceedings related to the assessment years 1961 62 and 1962 63, the provisions of the Income tax Act as they stood respectively on 1.4.1961 and 1.4.1962 would be applicable to determine the amount of penalty and number the amended provisions which came into force w.e.f 1st April, 1968. Subsequently, it came to the knowledge of the Income tax Officer that the assessee had failed to disclose in its returns certain profits arising from the sale of certain lands. The penalty proceedings were companytinued as companytemplated by the Act by the Inspecting Assistant Commissioner who, by his orders dated 4.3.1971, imposed penalties of Rs 24,000 And Rs. If the arguments of Sri Ahuja were companyrect there companyld have been numberpenalty at all imposed on such re assessment as there was numberconcealment in the re assessment proceedings. From the Judgement and Order dated 21.3.1973 of the Allahabad High Court in Income Tax Reference No. He, therefore, issued numberices under Section 148 of the Income tax Act, 1961 for both the years on the 9th March, 1965. The Act, as it stood on 1.4.1962, provided that the amount of penalty so imposable was to be measured with reference to the tax sought to be evaded by such an act of the assessee, broadly described hereinafter as companycealment. 10,000 respectively for the two assessment years in question. The assessment orders are dated 30.3.1962 and 28.11.1963 respectively. The argument addressed by Sri B.B.Ahuja, learned companynsel appearing for the Revenue, is very simple and runs thus The original returns filed in this case had culminated in the original assessments and are irrelevant for the present purposes, The present penalty proceedings were initiated in companyrse of reassessment proceedings initiated under s.148 of the Act. The High Court took the view that the law applicable in regard to the imposition of penalty would be number the law as on the 1st April of the relevant assessment year as held by the Tribunal but the law prevailing on the dates when the original returns were filed. The amount of penalty companyld number be less than 20 per cent of more than 150 per cent of the tax which would have been avoided as a result of the companycealment, The Finance Act, 1968 amended Section 271 1 c w.e.f.1.4.1968. The relevant returns in these cases, having been filed after 1.4.68, clearly attract the provisions of section 271 1 c as amended in 1968. In this case, as mentioned earlier, the returns originally had been filed sometime in 1962 and 1963. The exact dates of these returns are number available on record. If the assessee had been prompt in filing returns in response to these numberices, the problem that it number faces may number have arisen. 18,395 and Rs. The High Court having refused to grant a certificate of fitness to appeal to this Court, the companymissioner of Income tax preferred special leave petitions which were granted by this Court on the 9th March, 1977. Addl. 24,943 respectively and the reassessments were companypleted on 6th March, 1969. 678 679 of 1977. Aggarwal, Vinay Vaish, B.V. Desai and Vinita Ghanpade for the Respondents. Santhos Kr.

The average price at which oleo resin was sold by the State Govt. the average rate at which oleo resin was sold in auction was Rs. The large bulk of the quantity of oleo resin auctioned by the State Govt. 2 and 3 and 9,000 tonnes of oleo resin to the 4th respondent. was regularly auctioning this balance quantity of oleo resin remaining with it. All the three impugned Orders provided for supply of oleo resin at the rate of Rs. 2, 3 and 4 for setting up industries based on oleo resin. It may be numbered that this assured supply of oleo resin was guaranteed to respondent Nos. The companysequence was that from 1976 77 to 1978 79 the production of oleo resine in the State of Jammu Kashmir accounted for more than 50 of the total production of oleo resin in the companyntry. had its own three units in the public sector for manufacture of rosin and turpentine which needed oleo resin out of the quantities remaining with the State Government. Having regard to the average prices at which oleo resin had been sold in the auctions in the last five years preceding the dates of the impugned Orders, the State Government agreed to supply the stipulated quantities of oleo resin at the rate of Rs. Oleo Resin is produced in only three States in the companyntry namely, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradese and Jammu Kashmir. 21st October, 1978 by which the State of Jammu Kashmir sanctioned supply of crude oleo resin at the rate of 9,000 tonnes per annum to respondent No. was thus left with a surplus of about 11 to 12 thousand tonnes of oleo resin after meeting the needs of its own public sector units and the State Govt. There is companymodity called oleo resin which is a forest produce extracted from certain species of trees popularly known as chir trees. 2, 3 and 4 insisted in the companyrse of the negotiations that they would be prepared to set up factories for manufacturing resin and turpentine derivatives with the latest machinery and most sophisticated technology only if a companytinuous supply of oleo resin was assured to them by the State Government. In or about 1972, realising the importance of oleo resin as basic raw material and with a view to developing industries based on oleo resin, the Central Government appointed a Committee called Central Co ordination Committee for Rosin Turpentine inter alia to look into the need for higher production of oleo resin with improved and modern methods with a view to improving quality and out put, diversification of products by processing industries and export of sophisticated products. Out of these three units, one at Sunderbani was closed while the other two units at Rajouri and Miran Saheb utilised 5,000 tonnes and 2,000 tones of oleo resin. The petitioners thereupon filed the present writ petitions challenging the validity of the three impugned Orders assuring supply of 4,000, 4000 and 9,000 tonnes of oleo resin to respondent Nos. The quantify of rosin extracted from Chir trees in Jammu Kashmir was less than 6,000 tonnes in 1972 73 and its large potential had number been exploited until that time, though the States of Himachal Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh had been producing oleo resin for quite sometime. Pursuant to the recommendations made by this Committee, the State of Jammu Kashmir adopted vigorous measures for increasing the production of oleo resin and as a result of these measures, during the years 1974 75 to 1978 79 the production of oleo resin went up companysiderably as disclosed by the following figures 1974 75 17,800 tonnes 1975 76 33,630 1976 77 36,214 1977 78 37,536 1978 79 39,189 During this period, however, the States of Uttar Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh closed down various areas for tapping in view of extensive damage caused to the Chir trees by the private companytractors with the result that the production of oleo resin from these two States came down by about 40. When the State Government found that a large quantity of oleo resin produced within the State was going out of the State by way of about 50 of the total production being siphoned away by the tapping companytractors and about 11 to 12 thousand tonnes by way of purchases at auction, the State Government decided to take steps to promote industries based on oleo resin available in the State so as to achieve as much value addition as possible to the raw material by industrial companyversion within the State and generate more employment opportunities. The companytracts for tapping which were given to the private companytractors were of three types and the net result of giving these companytracts was that out of total production of oleo resin, about 50 of the quantity produced was taken away by the private companytractors and only the balance of 50 remained with the State Govt. The State Government with a view to promoting industrial development in the State and ensuring proper utilisation of the raw material produced within the State by industrial companyversion, passed the three impugned Orders sanctioning supply of 4,000 tonnes of oleo resin per annum to each of respondent number. The State Govt. 2, 3 and 4 number by way of sale simpliciter but only for the purpose of enabling them to run the factories which they decided to establish in the State for manufacturing resin and turpentine derivatives. Now, in the State of Jammu Kashmir, the tapping operations were entrusted by the State Govt. It is an important raw material for manufacture of rosin, turpentine and their derivatives. 2 and 4,000 tonnes per annum to respondent No. 4 is companycerned, the offer for setting up a factory for manufacturing rosin and turpentine derivatives was put forward by respondent No. was being purchased by members of the Hoshiarpur Rosin Manufacturers Association and, according to the State Govt. 4, 4,000 tonnes per annum to respondent number. The Slate Govt. to private companytractors since 1973 and majority of these private companytractors were members of Hoshiarpur Rosin Manufacturers Association. The negotiations between the State Government and respondent No. 262.46 It will thus be seen that in 1978 when the three impugned Orders were passed by the State Govt. 2, 3 and 4 at the companyt of the State. rate per quintal 1972 73 Rs. 2, 3 and 4 by the State Government and respondent Nos. 296/ per quintal. 3 came forward with its offer to set up a factory for manufacturing rosin and turpentine derivatives on reading the report of the speeches made by the Chief Minister at the meetings held by him in Bombay, Calcutta and Delhi. 260/ per quintal exclusive of companyt of tins, companytainers, sales tax etc. 2 to 4 for the purpose of feeding the factories to be set up by them in the State. 260/ per quintal exclusive of the companyt of tins, companytainers, sales tax, etc. Pursuant to the agreement arrived at between the State Government and respondent Nos. The State Government also decided to embark upon a massive programme of industrialisation in the State. But, even before these meetings were held, initiatives were taken for the purpose of setting up industries in the State and negotiations were started by the State Government with respondent Nos. With this and in view, several meetings were held by the Chief Minister in Bombay, Calcutta and Delhi with a view to persuading intrepreneurs in other State to invest in Jammu Kashmir. 260/ per quintal, exclusive of the companyt of tins, companytainers and sales tax, etc., which came to about Rs. 2, 3 and 4 respectively at the rate of Rs. The process of extraction is called tapping. 262.46 and prior to that, the average rates were even lower. 204.00 1976 77 Rs. 250.00 1973 74 No auction held 1974 75 Rs. 2, 3 and 4 started setting up their respective factories on the land allocated to them. The first ground of attack against the validity of the three impugned Orders was that they created monopoly in favour of respondent Nos. 201.25 1977 78 Rs. 2, 3 and 4, land, electricity and other facilities were made available to rspondent Nos. 243.00 1975 76 Rs. 4 on the basis of a tender numberice issued by the Stats Government on June 2, 1974. and under each of the three impugned orders, there was to be a moritorium on the rate for the first 5 years and thereafter the rate was liable to be increased or discreased according to the formula to be finalised between the Forest Department and respondent No. Each of respondents Nos. 13th October, 1978 and the other dt. 2, 3 or 4 as the case may be. in auction in each of the six years preceding 1979 was as follows Year Avg. This ground of attack against the validity of the three impugned Orders must therefore, be rejected. 2 companymenced sometime in 1972 and so far as respondent No. The other ground urged on behalf of the petitioners against the validity of the three impugned Orders was that they were arbitrary, mala fide and number in public interest inasmuch as a huge favour was companyfer red on respondent Nos.

A plain companysequence of this deletion was that the Panchayat Samitis were divested of their power to make appointments to the Panchayats. The appellant was appointed as a clerk by the Loharu Panchayat Samiti in 1963, long before the Amending Act came into force on June 13, 1973. Acting in pursuance of the provision of section 14 4 of the Amending Act, the Government of Haryana numberified the absorption of the appellant as a clerk though, as stated earlier he was working as a head Clerk in the Loharu Panchayat Samiti. In pursuance of this power, the appellant was appointed as a clerk on June 1, 1963 by the Panchayat Samiti, Loharu, which is respondent 3 in this appeal. The Punjab Panchayat Samitis, Zilla Parishads Haryana Amendment Act, 1973 introduced extensive amendments in the Act of 1961. Sections 35 1 of the Act empowers the State Government to place at the disposal of a Panchayat Samiti such of its servants as are required for the implementation of the schemes companynected therewith and for such other duties and functions as may be assigned to them by the Panchayat Samiti from time to time. It is urged by Shri Jain who appears on behalf of the appellant that by reason of section 14 4 of the Amending Act, the appellant was entitled to companytinue in the service of the Panchayat on the same terms and companyditions on which he was employed by the Panchayat Samiti until he was absorbed in Government service. Since the appellant, according to the terms and companyditions of his service with the Panchayat, was entitled to be companysidered for promotion to the post of a Head Clerk, his appointment as a Head Clerk prior to his absorption in Government service had to be recognised and protected, despite the fact that such appointment was made after June 13, 1973 when the Amending Act came into force. On April 1, 1975, the appellant was appointed as a Head Clerk. Section 33 of the Punjab Panchayat Samitis and Zilla Parishads Act 1961 The Act provided in so far as relevant, that subject to rules made by the Government, a Panchayat Samiti may employ such servants as it may companysider necessary for the efficient performance of the duties imposed upon it by the Act, rules or bye laws made thereunder or by. Section 13 of the Amending Act deleted section 33 of the Act. Being aggrieved by his absorption on a lower post, he filed a writ petition in the High Court of Punjab and Haryana, asking that he should be absorbed as a Head Clerk. On March 14, 1975 a resolution was passed by respondent 3 regularising the post of Head Clerk. On January 21, 1974 he was promoted as a Head Clerk on an ad hoc basis. The Amending Act received the assent of the Governor on April 25, 1973 and was published in the Haryana Gazette on June 13, 1973. D. Jain Mrs. Kawaljit Kocher for the Appellant. 752 of 1977.

It was also found that the respondent had paid the Customs Duty on the scrap as required by Clause b to the Proviso to the Notification No.16/83 CE. 8870.40 holding that the Duty was short levied and benefit of Notification No.16/83 CE dated 11.2.1983 was wrongly made admissible to the respondent. The exemption from payment of Central Excise Duty was held to be admissible only on fulfilment of certain companyditions as companytained in the Notification No.16/83 CE itself. Undisputedly, on two clearances of the scrap, Custom Duty was assessed and the same was paid by the respondent. So far it relates to the resultant waste and scrap of the imported raw material, namely, Cellulose Acetate sheets, Customs Duty as well as additional duty is payable on the scrap being cleared for home companysumption outside the Free Trade Zone. 16/83 CE dated 11.2.1983, issued by the Central Government under Rule 8 1 of the Central Excise Rules, 1944, in regard to the payment of additional custom duty under Section 3 1 of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975, on the waste and scrap of imported Cellulose Acetate sheets. 16/83 CE dated 11.2.1983 and additional duty under Section 3 1 of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975 was number levied. The CEGAT upheld the order passed by the Collector of Customs Appeals finding that numberadditional duty of customs would be payable where Excise Duty is exempt under a Notification issued under Rule 8 1 of the Excise Rules 1944. The respondent preferred an appeal against the order of the Assistant Collector Customs to the Collector Customs Appeals who by order dated 12.3.1990 allowed the appeal holding that the benefit of Notification No.16/83 CE was admissible to the respondent. On certain given companyditions, exemption from payment of excise duty is admissible to the manufacturer in the Free Trade Zone. It was also held that the waste and scrap item of Cellulose Acetate sheets was companyered under Tariff Item No.15 A 1 , explanation iii as provided in the foot numbere to Item No.15 A of the Central Excise Tariff. The aforesaid two demands for additional duty were companyfirmed by the Assistant Collector Custom , Kandla Free Trade Zone by order dated 22.6.1989 for a sum of Rs. FIZ Cus Demand/85 86/1347 dated 16.10.1989 for a sum of Rs.8870.40. The Revenue challenged the order passed by the Collector Customs Appeals before the Customs, Excise and Gold Control Appellate Tribunal for short, CEGAT . The respondent, M s. Presto Industries, is an industrial unit manufacturing companybs and brushes, in Kandla Free Trade Zone, from the imported Cellulose Acetate sheets. The duty was found to be short paid. FIZ Cus Demand/87 /7545/73 dated 26.6.1989 for a sum of Rs.60,480/ and Demand Notice No. Thus, the additional duty was rightly demanded over and above to whatever was assessed and paid by the respondent. Thus, two Demand Notices under Section 28 of the Customs Act, 1962 were issued in respect of two clearances, namely, Demand Notice No. 68076.40 and by order dated 16.10.1989 for a sum of Rs. It was, however, later discovered during the audit that while assessing the liability, the respondent had been wrongly given benefit of Notification No. The question that falls for companysideration in these appeals is as to whether or number, the respondent has been rightly given benefit of Notification No. We have heard Shri Mukul Rohtagi, learned Additional Solicitor General for the appellant and Shri V. Lakshmikumaran, learned companynsel for the respondent. The Tribunal dismissed the appeal by order dated 12.7.1991. Hence the appeals by the Revenue. It also relied upon the decision in M.R.F. Limited versus Union of India and others, though on facts it stands on a different footing. J U D G M E N T BRIJESH KUMAR, J.

appellant number 2 had stated that the respondent had been allowed to construct a permanent cinema hall at jhajjar and the site plans were being submitted for proper scrutiny and approval at an early

number. on march 4 1959 appellant number 2 informed the respondent that his application had been rejected by appellant number as the same did number fulfil the conditions laid down in the memorandum dated september 3 0 1957. it appears that appellant number i had decided of grant the licence to sultan singh and that probably is the reason why the application of the respondent was rejected. the suggestion made by the respondent was that appellant number 1 wanted to prefer sultan singh to him for extraneous companysiderations and that rendered the impugned order invalid. on september 26 1957 the tehsildar made a report that the site was in accordance with the provisions of the act and that the respondent was its owner. then followed a report made by appellant number 2 to appellant number

appears that on april 24 1957 the government of appellant number 1 the state of punjab had issued instructions in regard to the grant of licences under the relevant provisions of the act. yet anumberher person sultan singh by name made a similar application on august 26 1958. on october 7 1958 the provincial town planner punjab wrote to the executive engineer that the building plans submitted by the respondent had been checked and they appeared to satisfy the rules framed under the act so far as the structural features of the building were companycerned. it was urged that appellant number i had taken into account the relevant companysiderations prescribed by the instructions issued by it by virtue of its authority under s. 5 2 of the act and had companye to the conclusion that the respondents application companyld number be granted. in his petition the respondent alleged that the order passed by appellant number i rejecting his application for a licence under s. 5 was illegal arbitrary capricious oppressive and without jurisdiction. ci/66 16 while the application made by the respondent was pending co sideration. in companysequence a writ of mandamus has also been issued requiring the licensing authority to deal with the respondents application in accordance with law. on december 20 1958 appellant number 2 submitted anumberher report to appellant number 1 saying inter alia that it had been reported by the police that the respondent had been arrested in companynection with save hindi agitation and was discharged on tendering apology and that he did number pay any income tax. these numberifications were issued by appellant number1 8sup. that is why he was told that his application companyld number be companysidered. on these allegations the respondent claimed that a writ in the nature of certiorari be issued setting aside the said order and directing the appropriate authority under s. 5 of the act to deal with the respondents application in accordance with law. on receiving this companymunication from appellant number 2 the respondent preferred an appeal to appellant number 1 under s. 5 3 of the act but his appeal was rejected on
