19. A coordinate Bench of this Court in its decision dated May 4, 2018 in FMA 857 of 2012 (Sri Krishna Kanta Singh v. Sri Parameswar Achutanan Nair & Ors.) has held the proceedings before the claims tribunal under Section 166 read with Section 168 of the 1988 Act to be inquisitorial in nature. Strict principles of the Evidence Act, 1872 do not apply in such proceedings. Merely because the certificate dated April 26, 2005 was not marked as an exhibit would not afford reasonable ground to discard its contents. The contention of Mr. Singh, therefore, stands overruled.

Urmila Bhowmik & Ors vs Gouri Sankar Dey & Ors on 4 February, 2020

In the recent ruling cited in 2005 (3) T.A.C. 533 (M.P.) the Hon'ble High Court, Madhya Pradesh observed that a return of income which has been filed on behalf of the deceased after his death and such return showing conveniently higher income after the death resulting in any assessment cannot be a relevant piece of evidence and cannot be entertained. In this view of the matter, we feel that the application deserves to be rejected and the same is accordingly rejected. Thus lacking reliance upon the principles of the decision referred above, I am of the opinion that the documents relating to income tax which are produced on behalf of the petitioners' in the instant case cannot be taken into consideration at the time of final assessment of the compensation, to be awarded in favour of the petitioners."
