daughter's equal share

My grand father had 4 sons and 5 daughters. The partition decree of 1952 with his elder brother mentions only 3 sons because 4th son was born in 1954. All properties are ancestral.
My grand father died in 1962. All daughters married before 1977.my grand mother also died in 2000.
All properties are sold out or partitioned before 2000, except one agricultural land of 20 acres.
My mother got equal share in father’s share i.e.,1/50 in sold out properties (1/10 in 1/5).
Now my question is whether she will get 1/9 share i.e, .2.22 acres, after Hindu succession act (amendment) 2005.in remaining un- partitioned 20 acres. Please clarify.(equal to son)

Sir,

Re: Stamp duty on shares holding in joint name transfer to spouse

I have been informed by a company that stamp duty I chargeable for share transfer of spouse already shares are in joint name. Is it so? Since Deemat account of single person does not allow joint shareholdings it is necessary to make it single for joint holding by spouse in the single name. But it is not sale or transfer in literary sense than why stamp duty on market rates of shares is Levi able? Even if it is so it should be for 50% (half the value) of total market value as spouse is having 50% share in it. Will the authorities or a competent person clarify it? In my view there should not be any stamp duty on such transfers’. And if it is not the law such an amendment is a must in public interest.
In fact, in all family settlements under all tax laws there is no stamp duty, as no transfer of property actually takes place.
Further I suggest that all family (blood relations) transaction of transfers/settlement / and even sales if any including shares should be exempt from the provisions of Stamp Duty Act.

Over time rules in Kerala

Dear Sirs,

We have a new project in Kerala and we engaged EPC contract. our manpower is only management staffs like Engineers, Senor Engineers managers etc( not workers or labours). Since it is a on site job our normal working hours are 10+1.
As per labour law 8 hours daily working time and 50 hrs OT for a month is applicable ( as per my knowledge ). But in our case it may go more if we will keep daily working hours as 8 hrs. we are ready to pay more money to staff if they worked more hours. But my question is " the rule of 50 hr OT per month". In our past case many time the OT hrs exceed 50 hrs. Also we dont want to increase manpower instead of giving OT. If the staffs agreed to work for 10 hrs per day, is it possible? please clarify.

Bombay Stamp Act,1959

Under the current Stamp Duty Amnesty Scheme,2008, of Maharashtra Govt., I wanted to submit the application for Feb.1980 Society Transfer Form (unstamped) of the Registered Co.Op.Society, based on which the flat was purchased and also transferred by the society in 1980.The authorities refused to entertain the application stating that the transfer form did not have any stamp. I had taken up the matter with Inspector General of Registration & Controller of Stamps, Pune, for clarifications as Transfer Form was classified as an Instrument liable for payment of Stamp Duty as per the Bombay Stamp Act, 1959. .Now 2/3 days back, IGR had issued the circular that such documents could be accepted by the authorities under the Amnesty Scheme but subject to payment of deficient stamp duty under 5(h) of the act and also penalty under 39 of the Act, as both prevailing at that time(in this case, Feb.1980). Will someone remove my confusion as to what benefit I will get if I apply under the scheme? What will be the amount payable as stamp duty and penalty, for consideration amount of Rs.31000/- as per the said Society Transfer Form? Is the Deptt. right in collecting the stamp duty by this illegal interpretation of the law, for instruments prior to 10-12-1985? I understand that if Rs.5/- adhesive stamp was affixed on the Transfer Form, then under this scheme, I would have been liable to pay stamp duty at current rate –which is Rs.100/- upto Rs.2.5 lacs).Moreover, in Feb,1980, instruments were assessed for stamp duty at face value as no market value concept was there at that time.What if I opt for registering the same with confirmation Deed on Rs.100/- stamp paper after the Amnesty Scheme? Will it be the same amount which the authorities are now demanding under the Amnesty Scheme/? L.T.Maheshwari

Denial of pensionery / medical benefits to IFCI retirees

IFCI (having its registered office at 61,Nehru Place ,New Delhi-110 019),a Public Financial Institution, originally established as a statutory corporation by an Act of Parliament in 1948(15 of 1948) and the first Government Institution converted into a company at the threshold of liberalization by another Act of Parliament i.e. The Industrial Finance Corporation (Transfer of Undertaking and Repeal) Act,1993, No 23 of 1993 is for all practical purposes an instrument of the Government Of India(GOI has recently directly extended IFCI loans/grants amounting to more than Rs. 5000 crores spreading over 2002/03 -2010/11)

The Section 8 of the above said Repeal Act explicitly protects the service conditions of the employees. The position was reaffirmed by the then Honorable Finance Minister of India on the floor of Lok Sabha on 3rd July, 1998 in reply to an Unstarred Question No 2786

Now IFCI in gross violation of three decades old policy of following Industrial Development Bank of India (IDBI) in relation to pay scales, pension and other service conditions, by shifting the cut-off date of revision of pay scales, has deliberately denied its 286 retirees their revised due pension, outstanding wages, medical and other related benefits.

Under the circumstances and based on above facts, what VRS optees (who are mostly senior citizens) can do so that they can get releif in a shortest period without incurring much expenditure.

How much time it will take in decion by High Court?
Management after decision may appeal in Supreme Court that will also consume much time by that time most of retirees would be in Heaven.
Is it possible to file PIL in Supreme Court or any other legal way in which decision can be taken in 2/3 months.

The Supreme Court in case No 395/2008 (writ petition civil)has decided to look into the alleged discrimination between pensioners who retired from public sector banks between1987-97 and those who did so after 1998.

Perusing the PIL filed by an aggrieved employee of one such bank, E K Varghese, the Bench of Chief Justice K G Balakrishnan on Thursday sought the response of the Finance Ministry and the All-India Bank Employees Association.

The PIL, filed through advocate N R Shonker, claims that those who retired before 1998 were denied the benefit of revision of pension. The petitioner urged the Court to declare that denying revision of pension benefits to pre-1998 pensioners while granting them to post-1998 retirees was arbitrary and illegal and in violation of Article 14 of the Constitution.

Varghese has also alleged that there are considerable anomalies in the pension payment made to retired employees of public sector banks and those who retired from other government services.

His petition stated that when the Central or state governments extend an increased dearness allowance to their employees, the same is extended to their pensioners as well. However, in the banking sector, even though the DA is revised for working employees on a quarterly basis, it is revised only half-yearly for pensioners. This, he again alleged is arbitrary and violates the Constitution.

Can somebody give reference / Contact Nos of Mr. N R Shonkar who can be approached by retirees for making a party to the case

Pl also advise the definition of back wages with supportive judgements if any

Service tax paid to the builder

Sirs,

Are the purchasers of flats eligible to get the refund of the Service tax they paid to the builder (during 2007-08) ?

From the circular,issued by Central Board of Customs & Excise issued Service Tax Circular No.96 dated 23rd August 2007 which covers the issue, it looks like that the property buyers need not pay service tax to builder/developer. On the other hand if the developers had employed the services of a contractor, it is the contractor who will have to pay service tax and not the developer builder.

Please clarify?

1. Which section of service tax act demands that the service tax to be paid by the property buyer to the builder ?

2. Is there any relevent decision by the SC or any advance ruling on this matter?

Thanks,

Brindha
