A mere allegation of corruption not backed by credible evidence would not be sufficient to direct the country’s intelligence organisations to reveal information under the RTI Act, the Central Information Commission (CIC) has held.
JUST a week ago, we carried a story and case where a Single Bench of the Delhi High Court had taken serious note of the lackadaisical approach of the Department in releasing the information. The High Court had directed the department to furnish the information within two weeks.
The Central Information Commission (CIC) has held that citizens cannot question government policies and plans by utilising the Right to Information Act. The Commission noted this while dismissing an application filed by a Mumbai resident Amin Merchant who had sought information from Finance Ministry as to why certain tariff policy was framed by the Centre.
There is good news in store for SEZ units. The government is likely to put on hold its plan of placing an export obligation on units operating in SEZs. The commerce department has suggested to the finance ministry that the government should consider imposing an export obligation only if exports from such zones fall below a threshold limit in the coming years. While the government was deliberating making it compulsory for all SEZs to export 51% of what they produce, the present average export figures of SEZs is much higher at 82%.
Has your income-tax return been picked up for scrutiny by the income-tax department? You may not get to know the reason. The department is against bringing scrutiny under the purview of the Right To Information (RTI) Act. This means an assessee will not have the right under the RTI Act to ascertain as why his case was selected for scrutiny by the department.
The Hon’ble Court held that the fact that parties were in discussions on the issue of payment for the extra work items undertaken by the Appellant and the exact work to be executed where-after the Respondent submitted its final bill followed by the No-Claim Certificate would be “clear cut evidence” to show that there was an accord on all disputes between the parties which was arrived at after protracted correspondence and claims in respect of the disputes settled in the accord could not have been raised and the accord reopened.
The Applicant, an informer of the department, filed a RTI application seeking inspection & copies of all records available with the income tax department including assessment orders of Escorts Ltd, Dr. Naresh Trehan and connected parties. The application was rejected by the PIO on the ground that there was no overriding public interest in disclosing the information relating to third parties and the disclosure would lead to an invasion of privacy of the assessees. On appeal by the applicant, HELD allowing the appeal:
Units undertaking to export their entire production of goods and services except to the extent of permissible sales in the DTA. Second hand capital goods, without any age limit, may also be imported duty free.
In the case of Vijay v. State of Maharashtra & others (2006) 6 SCC 286 Apex Court held that It is now well-settled that when a literal reading of the provision giving retrospective effect does not produce absurdity or anomaly, the same would not be construed to be only prospective. The negation is not a rigid rule and varies with the intention and purport of the legislature
(1) This Act may be called the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006. (2) It shall come into force on such date as the Central Government may, by notification, appoint; and different dates may be appointed for different provisions of this Act and any reference in any such provision to the commencement of this Act shall be construed as a reference to the coming into force of that provision.
