Harbans Lal And Another vs State Of Haryana on 15 October, 1992

It may be noted here that the Punjab and Haryana High Court has decided a number of writ petitions through the judgment delivered in the case of Harbansh Lal v. State of Haryana. The appeal before the Supreme Court was filed by those assessees who were dealers of hiring shuttering to builders and contractors who used it in the course of construction of buildings. The dealers of industrial gas and cylinders were not appellants before the Supreme Court. Therefore, the controversy before the Supreme Court was confined and limited to the extent of transfer of right to use shuttering materials to the builders and contractors. The Supreme Court therein rejected the submission of the appellant that there must be legal transfer of goods or that the transaction must be like a lease to deem the transfer as sale. It has come to the conclusion where there is transfer of right to use the goods for consideration the requirement of law is satisfied and there is a deemed sale. It was held that transfer of shuttering for consideration to builders and building contractors for use in the construction of buildings is a deemed sale.

7. The observation of the Supreme Court though made in a different context in the case of State of Andhra Pradesh v. Rashtriya Spat Nigam Limited 2002 UPTC 273 has some bearing to the facts of the present case. The dealer supplied certain machinery to the contractors and collected hire charges. The High Court on the basis of the terms and conditions in the agreement came to the conclusion that the transaction did not involve the transfer of right to use machinery in favour of the contractor. The judgment of the High Court was confirmed by the Supreme Court on the finding that the contractor was not free to make the use of machinery for the works other than the project work of the dealer and as such there was no transfer of right to use the machinery. Although the contractor was made responsible for the custody of the machinery while it was on the site but it did not militate against the dealer's possession and control of the machinery.
