The State ..... petitioner -Versus- Md. Hitu Sheikh alias Etu Sheikh ..... condemned-prisoner
In view of the discussion made hereinabove, the reference is accepted. The judgment and order of conviction and sentence of death passed by the Tribunal is hereby upheld. Accordingly, the criminal appeal is dismissed and the jail appeal is disposed of. But in the evidence of witnesses, we find that the defence very casually cross-examined the prosecution witnesses which is very unwanted. The accused was charged with rape followed by murder which provides capital punishment. In such a case, if the accused is found unable to engage a competent Advocate to defend him, in that case the Court may on its own initiative can appoint an experienced Advocate to defend the accused.
21
Government of Bangladesh and others -Versus- Afsaruddin Beg and others
A doubtful, unproved or legally infirm document cannot constitute the juridical foundation of title, and, in the absence of a prima facie title, an adverse entry in the record-of-rights, even if alleged to be erroneous, cannot ipso facto confer upon the plaintiff any declaratory or possessory right. Qui sentit commodum, sentire debet et onus (i.e., he who enjoys the benefit must also bear the burden) has no application to create a proprietary right where its legal source itself remains unproved.

The Commissioner of Taxes, Taxes Zone-1, Chattagram vs Confidence Cement Ltd., Chattagram
The first question was decided based on the non-obstante clause of sub-section (1) of section 82C of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1984. Tax deducted at source (TDS) under section 53 of the Ordinance, on the import of goods by an industrial undertaking as raw materials for its own consumption (such as a cement factory), shall be assessed as regular source of income instead of under section 82C. Conversely, TDS under section 52 read with rule 16 shall be assessed under section 82C of the Ordinance. The second question was decided on the basis that the reduction and deletion of disallowances of claimed expenses, as well as the reduction of estimated sales are purely factual matters involving no complex question of law. Therefore, we are of the view that we should not disturb the factual findings legally settled by the Tribunal.
27
OnMobile Global Limited vs National Board of Revenue and others
The issuance of a notice under section 213 of the Income Tax Act, 2023 to revise the erroneous assessment order passed by the DCT, after the expiry of four years from the date of the order sought to be revised, is declared to have been issued without lawful authority and to be of no legal effect.
28
Solar Television Mfg. Ltd. vs Customs, Excise and VAT Appellate Tribunal, Dhaka and others
The Customs, Excise and VAT Appellate Tribunal is required to dispose of an appeal by passing such order or orders as it deems fit upon consideration of the merits of the case, thereby confirming, modifying, or annulling the decision or order appealed against. The order of the Tribunal, dismissing the appeal for default, is hereby declared to have been passed without lawful authority and hence, is of no legal effect.
29
Engineer Md. Mohosin vs Commissioner of Taxes, Taxes Zone-1, Chattogram and others
The legislature intends for a person to be given a fair opportunity to defend him or herself before any decision is made that negatively impacts his or her rights, property, or status. The person must be given a genuine opportunity to present his or her side of the story, submit evidence, and challenge or cross-examine the evidence brought against him or her. A court must fix a date that gives the defendant reasonable and sufficient time to prepare his or her defense and travel to the court. Therefore, the matter is remanded back to respondent No. 1 for a rehearing. This will afford the petitioner a meaningful opportunity to be heard and to adduce further evidence, if any.
30
BSRM Steels Limited vs Commissioner of Taxes, Large Taxpayer’s Unit (LTU), Dhaka
The first issue was decided on the basis that the disallowance of expenses from the profit and loss accounts and the manufacturing and trading accounts are purely factual matters involving no complex question of law. Therefore, we are of the view that we should not disturb the factual findings legally settled by the Commissioner of Taxes in disposing of the revisional application under section 121A of the Ordinance. The second issue was decided based on the non-obstante clause of sub-section (1) of section 82C of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1984, The business income of the petitioner was classified correctly by the DCT based on deduction of tax at source for recovery of minimum tax under section 82C of the Ordinance. As such, the Rules in above two writ petitions are hereby discharged.
31
Kaniz Fatema vs Customs, Excise and VAT Appellate Tribunal, Dhaka and others
We are of the view that the redemption fine should be aligned with the rationalized standard deemed reasonable by the Legislature and subsequently codified in the Finance Act, 2014. Accordingly, respondent No.4 is directed to modify the redemption fine and fix it at 50% of the actual evaded VAT amount in place of an astronomical amount.
32
IPCO Developments (Bangladesh) Limited vs The Commissioner of Taxes, Taxes Zone-6, Dhaka.
For the purpose of computing income or losses, as assessee must first have income under section 28 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1984. From that income, allowable expenses shall be deducted under section 29 of the Ordinance, subject to certain circumstances where deductions are not admissible as provided under section 30 of the Ordinance. We find that the Tribunal was fully justified in upholding the rejection of the claim of business loss. The statutory mechanics of the Ordinance dictate that business deductions cannot be claimed against a non-existent revenue stream prior to the commencement of commercial operation.
33
BBC Bangladesh Limited vs The Commissioner of Taxes, Taxes Zone-8, Dhaka
The disallowance of expenses from the profit and loss accounts is purely factual matters involving no complex question of law. Therefore, we are of the view that we should not disturb the factual findings legally settled by the Tribunal. We find no provision of law that allows for the determination of foreign currency invested as a “share money deposit” as income under section 28 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1984. While the Tribunal is competent to decide all questions of fact and law and serves as the final arbiter of factual matters, the legal aspects were entirely ignored.

BBC Bangladesh Limited vs The Commissioner of Taxes, Taxes Zone-8, Dhaka
The disallowance of expenses from the profit and loss accounts is purely factual matters involving no complex question of law. Therefore, we are of the view that we should not disturb the factual findings legally settled by the Tribunal. The second question was decided based on that we find no provision of law that allows for the determination of foreign currency invested as a “share money deposit” as income under section 28 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1984. While the Tribunal is competent to decide all questions of fact and law and serves as the final arbiter of factual matters, the legal aspects were entirely ignored.
35
Zen International Limited, Dhaka vs The Commissioner of Taxes, Taxes Zone-10, Dhaka.
The first question was decided on the basis that the disallowance of expenses, including losses from burglaries, from the profit and loss accounts are purely factual matters involving no complex question of law. Therefore, we are of the view that we should not disturb the factual findings legally settled by the Tribunal. The second question was decided based on the principle that the estimation of commission receipts is also a factual matter unless proved otherwise with verifiable evidence. In the present case, the applicant received commissions from bKash Limited (a BRAC Bank subsidiary) which is supported by verifiable evidence. Hence, we are of the view that the Tribunal estimated the commission receipts without applying a judicial mind.
36
Alltex Industries Limited vs The Commissioner of Taxes, Large Taxpayers Unit (LTU), Dhaka
It is our considered view that while section 35(3) of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1984 directs the applicant company to furnish a trading account, a profit and loss account, and a balance sheet certified by a Chartered Accountant, such certification does not dispense with the statutory requirement to produce primary, verifiable evidence in support of the specific financial claims made therein. The disallowance of claimed expenses and estimation of gross profit are purely factual matters, involving no complex questions of law. Therefore, we are of the view that we should not disturb the factual findings legally settled by the Tribunal.
37
Hatil Complex Limited, Dhaka vs The Commissioner of Taxes, Taxes Zone-7, Dhaka
It is our considered view that while section 35(3) of the Income Tax Ordinance, 1984 directs the applicant company to furnish a trading account, a profit and loss account, and a balance sheet certified by a Chartered Accountant, such certification does not dispense with the statutory requirement to produce primary, verifiable evidence in support of the specific financial claims made therein. The disallowance of claimed expenses and estimation of sales are purely factual matters, involving no complex question of law. We are of the view that we should not disturb the factual findings legally settled by the Tribunal.
