Girdhari Lal Nannelal vs The Sales Tax Commissioner, M.P. on 1 March, 1976
The Tribunal relied upon this Court's decision in
Girdhari Lal Nannelal v. Sales Tax Commissioner, Madhya Pradesh (1977)
39 STC 30, wherein it was held that it was for the sales tax authorities to
show the existence of material to indicate that the acquisition of money by
the assessee had come from transactions liable to sales tax and not from
other sources. The Tribunal found that the sales tax authorities in the
present case had not established that the income disclosed by the assessee
had been derived from business transactions liable to sales tax. The
presumption of the assessing authority in this behalf was belied by the fact
G.S.T.R. No. 4 of 2000 [ 6 ]
that the income-tax authorities had accepted the sales turnover declared by
the assessee."
