C.C. Mahajan And Co. vs The State Of Bombay on 4 October, 1957

Referring to Webster's New International Dictionary which gives the meaning of "toilet" to be the same as we have reproduced above, the Court held that there can be little doubt that a depilatory is used for the purpose of cleansing and grooming one's person and, therefore, it is a toilet article. If an article used for grooming one part of the body is a toilet article, by no process of reasoning can an article like tooth-powder which is used for cleansing another part of the body, viz., teeth, can be said not to be a toilet article and outside entry No. 39.
