S. Sinha and O. P. Jain, JJ.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_1\">1. Heard Shri Shree Prakash Singh, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and Shri A. N. Shukla, learned standing counsel representing the respondents.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_2\">2. By the impugned order dated 8th March, 1991 the Collector. Ghazipur has declined to pay to the petitioners sale proceeds of the essential commodities seized for violation of the provisions of <a href=\"\/doc\/774360\/\" id=\"a_1\">Essential Commodities Act<\/a>, 1955 (hereinafter called the &#8216;Act&#8217;), on the ground that the question of payment of sale proceeds would be considered by the competent court dealing with the case under <a href=\"\/doc\/158335608\/\" id=\"a_1\">Section 3<\/a>\/<a href=\"\/doc\/361626\/\" id=\"a_2\">7<\/a> of the Act and that he had no Jurisdiction to do so.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_3\">3. The court has carefully scrutinized the impugned order and is of the opinion that it is in conformity with the provisions contained in <a href=\"\/doc\/169523\/\" id=\"a_3\">Section 6A<\/a> of the<br \/>\nAct.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_4\">4. Conjoint reading of sub-section (1) and sub-section (3) of <a href=\"\/doc\/169523\/\" id=\"a_4\">Section 6A<\/a> of the Act makes it clear that sale proceeds of essential commodities which is seized and sold under <a href=\"\/doc\/169523\/\" id=\"a_5\">Section 6A<\/a> of the Act can be paid to the owner or the person from whom it is seized only upon existence of the following conditions :\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_5\">(a)   where no order of confiscation is ultimately passed by the Collector,<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_6\">(b)   where an order passed on appeal under sub-section (1) of <a href=\"\/doc\/675392\/\" id=\"a_6\">Section 6C<\/a> so requires, or<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_7\">(c)   where in a prosecution instituted for the contravention of the order in respect of which an order of confiscation has been made under this section, the person concerned is  acquitted.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_8\">5. In the instant case, conditions specified for payment of sale proceeds of goods seized are not demonstrated to exist. On the contrary, the Impugned order indicates that when it was passed, the matter was under Investigation. Thus, the order cannot be assailed. It is perfect and in conformity with the provisions of <a href=\"\/doc\/169523\/\" id=\"a_7\">Section 6A<\/a> of the Act.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_9\">6.    In the result, the petition fails and is hereby dismissed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Allahabad High Court Deo Saran Kushwaha And Others vs State Of U. P.
