‘Soft serve’ provided by McDonalds is ice cream for the purposes of excise – SC

December 9, 2012 3913 Views 0 comment Print

The assessee has averred that ‘soft serve’ cannot be regarded as ice- cream since the former is marketed and sold around the world as ‘soft serve’. We do not see any merit in this averment. The manner in which a product may be marketed by a manufacturer, does not necessarily play a decisive role in affecting the commercial understanding of such a product. What matters is the way in which the consumer perceives the product at the end of the day notwithstanding marketing strategies.

We have stated the role of the State as a model employer with the fond hope that in future a deliberate disregard is not taken recourse to and deviancy of such magnitude is not adopted to frustrate the claims of the employees. It should always be borne in mind that legitimate aspirations of the employees are not guillotined and a situation is not created where hopes end in despair.

Corruption is not only a punishable offence but also undermines human rights, indirectly violating them, and systematic corruption, is a human rights’ violation in itself, as it leads to systematic economic crimes. Thus, in the aforesaid backdrop, the High Court should not have passed the said order of suspension of sentence in a case involving corruption.

November 25, 2012 693 Views 0 comment Print

In the present case, we find that the Assessment Order does not give effect to the amount seized in the calculation of tax payable at the end of the Assessment Year in question. Further, there is no Demand Notice and there is no basis for claiming interest on advance tax due on 15th September, 15th December and 15th March. On account of this vagueness, leaving the question of law open, the civil appeal filed by the Department is dismissed.

Apart from the afore-stated question, CIT(A) would take into account, whether the above-mentioned practice of selling sugar at concessional rate has become the practice or custom in the Co-operative Sugar Industry?;
