			II.  Direct Taxes Case Laws:
			 
			
			
			 
			1.  Commissioner of Income Tax Vs. Ms. Megha Dadoo, I.T.A. No. 23 of 2011, Date of Order: 17.03.2015, High Court of Himachal Pradesh
 
			Whether
			the process of cutting of stainless steel pipes of larger size with 
			electric cutter and including painting and welding of pipes amounts to 
			manufacture or production?
 
			Held Yes.
 
			The 
			Tribunal has held that the raw material procured and the finished 
			products produced by the assessee are not known in the market by the 
			same name. In fact, there are different brand names and different 
			uses/applications. Even though main component of the end product would 
			be stainless steel pipe, however, only when other components are used in
			the manufacturing process, the final product, so manufactured and 
			marketed by the assessee, is produced. Without the use  of other raw 
			products, the finished product cannot be produced or marketed. Also, 
			with the consumption of the raw material, the end product cannot be put 
			back in the same original condition. Even in terms of its value, 
			combined price of raw materials used to produce the finished product, is
			lower than the price of the finished product. These findings of fact, 
			after having perused the record and heard learned counsel for the 
			parties, we find to be in no manner perverse or erroneous, warranting 
			interference. In fact, we are in agreement with the opinion so rendered 
			by the Tribunal.

			2.  Commissioner of Income Tax Vs. Rakesh Mahajan, I.T.A. No.55 of 2009, Date of Order: 09.09.2015, High Court of Himachal Pradesh
 
			Whether
			the accounts maintained by the Assessee were incorrect and incomplete 
			in terms of section 145(3) of the Income Tax Act, when it was not 
			possible to verify from such accounts whether any unvouched expenses 
			relating to one business, profits from which were declared on estimate 
			basis, have actually been debited in the accounts of another business ?
 
			Held Yes
 
			It 
			cannot be disputed that what is taxable under the Act is the real 
			accrued or arisen income and irrespective of the method of accountancy 
			adopted by the assessee, in case a true picture of the profits and 
			gains, that is to say, the real income is disclosed, then the same ought
			not to be ordinarily disturbed. In such circumstances, the Department 
			is bound by the assessee’s choice of method regularly employed, but then
			in case by this method, the true income or profit of accounts cannot be
			arrived at, then the A.O. had every reason to invoke Section 145 of the
			Act in order to work out the real income and thereby deduce the profit 
			and gain therefrom. As already observed earlier, the A.O. had given 
			cogent reasons for not accepting the accounts. Though, these findings 
			were set aside by the ITAT, but then even the ITAT did not conclude that
			the method of accountancy as employed by the assessee was in any manner
			correct. In absence of such findings, the order passed by the ITAT 
			cannot be sustained.

			for rectification is premature in case the petitioner is required to 
			move an appropriate application before the Company and it is only on 
			refusal by the Company that it is open to the petitioner to make such 
			parayer U/S111.
