Khandige Sham Bhat And Others vs The Agricultural Income Tax Officer on 29 August, 1962
In Khandige Sham
Bhat vs. Agricultural Income Tax Officer, Kasaragod and
52
Anr. (AIR 1963 SC 591). Travancore Cochin Agricultural
Income Tax Act was extended to Malabar area on November
01, 1956 after formation of the State of Kerala. Prior to that
date, there was no agricultural income tax in that area. The
challenge under Article 14 was that the income of the
petitioner was from areca nut and pepper crops, which were
harvested after November in every year while persons who
grew certain other crops could harvest before November and
thus escape the liability to pay tax. It was held that, that was
only accidental and did not amount to violation of Article14.

Deepal Girishbhai Soni And Ors vs United India Insurance Co. Ltd., Baroda on 18 March, 2004
"93. We are not oblivious of the proposition that a
beneficent legislation should not be construed so
liberally so as to bring within its fore a person who
does not answer the statutory scheme. (See Deepal
Girishbhai Soni v. United India Insurance Co.
Ltd.)"

Regional Director Employees A State ... vs Ramanuja Match Industrirs on 27 November, 1984
"53. Although the Act is a beneficial one and, thus,
deserves liberal construction with a view to
implementing the legislative intent but it is trite
that where such beneficial legislation has a scheme
14
of its own and there is no vagueness or doubt
therein, the court would not travel beyond the same
and extend the scope of the statute on the pretext of
extending the statutory benefit to those who are not
covered thereby. (See Regional Director, ESI
Corpn. v. Ramanuja Match Industries)"
Union Of India (Uoi) vs Charak Pharmaceuticals (India) Ltd. on 26 March, 2003
vs. Union of India (supra), Section 297(2)(g) of
Income Tax Act, 1961 was challenged because under that
Section proceedings completed prior to April, 1962 was to
be dealt under the old Act and proceedings completed after
the said date had to be dealt with under the Income Tax Act,
1961 for the purpose of imposition of penalty. April 01,
1962 was the date of commencement of Income Tax Act,
1961. It was held that the crucial date for imposition of
Penalty was the date of completion of assessment or the
formation of satisfaction of authority that such act had been
committed. It was also held that for the application and
implementation of the new Act, it was necessary to fix a date
53
and provide for continuation of pending proceedings. It was
also held that the mere possibility that some officer might
intentionally delay the disposal of a case could hardly be a
ground for striking down the provision as discriminatory.
