H.Y. Jadhav vs State Of Karnataka on 6 June, 1979

7. According to the definition of "sale", there must be transfer of property by the appellant to the railway. If the contract is merely for stacking the ballast on the side of the railway track, then it is pure and simple labour contract as the property does not pass to the assessee at any point of time. But if the ballast is to be collected from the quarry they may be belonging to the railway or others for which the royalty is paid then it will be considered to be the case of transfer of property by the assessee to the railway to that extent in respect of balast. The decision relied on by the learned Government Advocate of the Full Bench of this Court in H.Y. Jadhav v. State of Karnataka [1981] 48 STC 496 has not dealt with the case where it was pure and simply stacking of stone ballast on the side of railway line and which have scattered with lapse of time by use of railway lines for which only labour is put by the contractor in collecting and stacking and, therefore, no reliance can be placed on that decision. It is only in respect of those supplies where the assessee has to collect the stone ballast from a different source, may be the State Government quarry or may be railway quarry. While procuring the stone ballast the assessee has to make the payment of royalty which has to be considered as the purchase price of the assessee and, therefore, property in stone ballast vest with the assessee which is transferred when such stone ballast are stacked on the side of the railway line. The decision given in the case of Purshottam Premji has not examined the aspect as to whether the royalty paid is price or not which has been consequently considered by the apex Court in the case of Cooch Behar Contractors' Association [1996] 103 STC 477.
