SUPREME COURT OF INDIA
Decided on February 29,2000

COMMISSIONER OF SALES TAX,UTTAR PRADESH,LUCKNOW Appellant
VERSUS
PRAG ICE AND OIL MILLS Respondents

JUDGEMENT

- (1.) In this appeal the grievance made by the Appellant is that the High Court has not examined the matter in the way in which it should have been done. It is submitted that the question raised is whether a sale is of inter state or intrastate nature though dependent on facts, the inference to be drawn is one of law and, therefore, the High Court ought to have considered the matter placed before it and not merely, dispose it of by stating that the question was concluded by finding of facts by the Tribunal and so does not call for interference.
(2.) The order made by the High Court is cryptic and does not deal with the conclusion of facts arising in the case (and ) legal inferences thereto in deciding the case one way or the other. Therefore, we set aside the order passed by the High Court and remit the matter back to the High Court for fresh consideration in accordance with law. The appeal is allowed accordingly. There will be no order as to costs.;
