Case: COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX, BHUBANESHWAR AND ANR. versus PARMESHWARI DEVI SULTANIA AND ORS. [[1998] 2 S.C.R. 253] (1998) _4 . .... COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX, BHUBANESHWAR AND ANR. A v. PARMESHWARI DEVI SULTANIA AND ORS. MARCH 6, 1998 B [MRS. SUJATA V. MANOHAR AND D.P. WADHWA, JJ.] Income Tax Act, 1961: Sections 293,132 (B), 132 (4),(5),(7) and (11)-Bar of civil suit to set aside or modify assessment order- Search and seizure -Certain assets including gold ornaments seized and retained by c Income Tax Department--Partition suit by a sister of assessee claiming her share in the seized gold ornaments-Maintainability of-Held, not maintainable as the claim in the suit would effect the order passed under section 132(5) of the Income Tax Act-Claimant could have instead resorted to the remedy provided under the Act by filing objection under section 132(11)-Civil Procedure Code, 1908-Section 9. D D Words and Phrases : 'Any person '-Meaning and scope of-Income Tax Act, 1961 : Section 132(11). Income-Tax Officer conducted search and seizure under section 132 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 at a residential and business premises of 'B'. Various assets including gold ornaments were seized in the raid. On interrogation 'B' gave a statement that the gold ornaments belonged to deceased 'M' first wife of his father, who had bequeathed them for her only daughter, Respondent No. 1 and other children of his father from his second F wife. The said gold ornaments were in the custody of his father and on his death it came into his custody. The Income Tax Officer disbelieving the version of 'B' passed an order under section 132(5) of the Act and directed that all the assets seized including gold ornaments be retained by the department. Respondent No. 1 filed a petition before the Income Tax Officer G for return of the ornaments, which was rejected. Therefore, she filed a partition suit claiming 5/14th of her share in the gold ornaments which were seized. Revenue objected to the maintainability of the suit being clearly barred by section 293 of the Act. However, the Subordinate Court rejected the objection of the ReYenue holding that section 293 of the Act could not be a blanket bar for all types of civil suits and as there was no remedy in H SUPREME COURT REPORTS [1998) 2 S.C.R. A the Act for redressal of the grievance of respondent No. 1, the relief claimed in the suit could be granted to her in the Act. On revision, High Court upheld the order of the Subordinate Court on the ground that section 132 (5) of Income Tax Act did not give finality to order passed under the Act. Aggrieved, Revenue has filed the present appeal. B Allowing the appeal, this Court HELD: 1.1. Both the High Court and Subordinate Court were not .iustified in holding that the suit was not barred under section 293 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. (270-G) 1.2 The High Court failed to consider the effect of the decree if C passed in the suit on the order under Section 132(5) of the Act or other proceedings under Section 132B of the Act. When Section 293 originally stood, it pnwided that "no suit shall be brought in any civil court to set aside or modify any assessment or order made under this Act". The word "assessment" was omitted and the words "proceeding taken" were inserted D in its place. The scope of Section 293 of the Act has been widened now even to include any proceeding under the Act and it is not confined merely to set aside or modify any order. Section 293 is specific and docs not admit filing of suit which has the effect of even indirectly setting aside modifying of any proceeding taken under the Act or order made thereunder.

[[1998] 2 S.C.R. 253] (1998) Raleigh Investment Co. Ltd. v. Governor-General in Council, (1947) 15 E IR 332 (PC); Kamala Mills Ltd. v. State of Bombay, (1965) 56 TR 643 and Dulhabhai etc. v. State of Madhya Pradesh &Am:, (1968) 3 SCR 662 =AIR (1969) SC 78, relied on. Ranganmal & Ors. v. Union of India & Ors., (1963) 48 ITR 598 Mad. approved. F State of Bombay (Now Gujarat) v. Jagmohanda & Am:, (1966) 60 ITR 206, distinguished. 1.3. The direct effect of the decree in the suit would be that the gold ornaments, subject matter of the suit, would be taken out of the order of the Income Tax Officer under Section 132 (5) of the Act and would not be G available to be applied in proceedings under Section 132-B of the Act. It is immaterial if the proceeding under Section 132 gives no finality to the order passed under section 132(5) or 132(11) of the Act. It is not the case of the Revenue that Income Tax Authority can grant decree for partition. It is not also material for the decision of the case if the will now set up by the plaintiff H was genuine or not. The question that fell squarely for consideration was the ):... _ ~ ~ • right of the plaintiff as a third party in the proceedings under section 132 A of the Act. 1264-F-Gl 2. I. In the instant case, search and seizure were effected as per the provisions of the Act, assets and documents seized and statement of '8' recorded under sub-section (4) of Section 132 of the Act wherein he admitted B that the gold was acquired .from his and his brother's undisclosed income which he was even prepared to surrender to tax. It was thereafter in the course of further enquiry that he came up with a version that the gold ornaments in question belonged to his step-mother who bequeathed the same for the benefit of children of the plaintiff and other children that would be c born to the second wife of his father. This version did not find favour with the Income Tax Officer and he was not satisfied that gold ornaments in question did not belong to 'B'. It was, therefore, not necessary for him to issue any notice under sub-section (7) of Section 132 of the Act to the plaintiff. Moreover the plaintiff was well aware of the proceedings before the Income Tax Officer and she could have also filed objection to the order made D by the Income-Tax Officer under Section 132(5) of the Act to the Chief Commissioner or Commissioner under sub-section (11) thereof. 1270-E-Gl 2.2. Sub-section (11) of Section 132 of the Act is not confined to only that person who was subjected to search and seizure operation and against E whom the order under sub-section 132(5) was passed. The words "any person" appearing in sub-section (11) are signifi~ant and even a third party can make an application to the Chief Commissioner or Commissioner giving reasons for his objection to the order and seeking appropriate relief in the matter. This remedy the plaintiff did not avail. 1265-H; 266-AI p p 2.3. When the plaintiff was unable to get the release of the seized gold ornaments, allegedly belonging to her mother, under the provision of the Act, she could not by filing a partition suit indirectly get a decree to have a finding that the gold ornaments belonged to her mother and that she had right to claim her share therein. If she succeeds in her claim this will have G direct effect of getting that order of the Income-Tax Officer under Section 132(5) of the Act set aside or modified to that extent. This, section 293 does not permit. The decree if passed in a suit would not only effect 5/1,~th share of the plaintiff which she was seeking on partition of the gold ornaments, but also whole of the ornaments would get effected and taken out of the order H [1998) 2 S.C.R. A under sub-section (5) of Section 132 of the Act. [266-B-C) CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION: Civil Appeal No. 142of1997. From the Judgment and Order dated 24.10.94 of the Orissa High Court in C.R.

From the Judgment and Order dated 24.10.94 of the Orissa High Court in C.R. No. 6of1993. B Ranbir Chandra, C.V.S. Rao, (Ms. Shashi Kiran) and B.K. Prasad for the Appellants. N.K. Bisht, (NP) for the Respondents. Joseph Vellapaly and R.K. Kapoor for the Amicus Curiae appointed by C the Court. The Judgment of the Court was delivered by D.P. WAD HWA, J. Commissioner of Income Tax, Bhubaneshwar and Union of India, Ministry of Finance have filed this appeal against the judgment D dated October 24, 1994 of the Orissa High Court which the High Court dismissed their revision and affirmed the order of the subordinate court rejecting the plea of the Revenue that a suit for partition filed by the first respondent was not maintainable in view of the bar of in Section 293 of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (for short, the 'Act'). E E Respondent No. 1, as the plaintiff, filed a suit for partition against 7 . defendants, defendants 6 and 7 being respectively Union of India through Finance Secretary and Commissioner oflncome Tax, Orissa, now the appellant before us. Defendants 1 and 2 are step-brothers and defendants 3 to 5 are step-sisters of the plaintiff. Plaintiff said that she was the daughter of Bansidhar Agarwal from his first wife, while, defendants 1 to 5 were the children of F Bansidhar Agarwal from his second wife. Defendant No. 1 is Babula! whose residential and business premises were subjected to search and seizure operation under Section 132 of the Act and various assets including certain gold ornaments, subject matter of ttie suit filed by the plaintiff, were seized. Jn the suit the plaintiff had prayed for partition of those very gold ornaments. G Plaintiff said that her mother died in 1938 and that at that time she was possessed of 200 to las of gold ornaments which was her stridhan. Her mother made a will bequeathing gold ornaments to the plaintiff and other children of Bansidhar form his second wife in proportion to number of daughters of each of such children to meet the dowry demand and marriage requirements of their daughters. These ornaments were kept in the custody of father of the plaintiff H who died on February I 0, 1990. After his death the ornaments came in the ;... • ..,._ custody of Babula! Agaiwal, the first defendant. The family decided to partition A the ornaments. At that time there were 14 grand-daughters who were the daughters of the plaintiff and defendants I to 5. Since the plaintiff had 5 daughters, she was entitled to 5/J 4th share in the ornaments. Bui before the partition could take place, Income Tax Officer raided the house of the first defendant on March 23, 1990 and seized those gold ornaments which weighed 2128 gms. along with other assets. Plaintiff said that she filed a petition before B the Income Tax Officer for return of the ornaments but he refused. The plaintiff then issued a notice to the Commissioner of Income Tax, Orissa, defendant No. 7, who, it is alleged, assured her that justice would be done to her claim and had stated that her case would be disposed of within three months. Nothing happened in spite of the reminders and no decision was C taken. This gave cause of action to the plaintiff. She served a notice under Section 80 of Code of Civil Procedure on Defendants 6 and 7 and thereafter filed the suit. From the facts, it is quite obvious that the plaintiff would not have filed the suit for partition as there was no dispute to her claim by other relatives D but for the fact that gold ornaments were then in the custody of the Income Tax Department. Notices of the suit were served on Defendants 6 and 7. They filed an application in the Court on August 7, 1992 challenging the very maintainability of the suit in view of Section 293 of the Act. The Section is as under : E Case: COMMISSIONER OF INCOME TAX, BHUBANESHWAR AND ANR. versus PARMESHWARI DEVI SULTANIA AND ORS.
