This writ petition is preferred by the petitioner invoking the<\/p>\n<p>       provisions of Article 226 and\/or 227 of the Constitution of India.<\/p>\n<p>       The petitioner seeks quashing of orders dated 1st June, 1989<\/p>\n<p>       whereby reassessment of the petitioner for the assessment<\/p>\n<p>       year 1983-84 was finalized. The petitioner has also impugned<\/p>\n<p>       the order dated 23rd January, 1990 whereby the appeal of the<\/p>\n<p>       petitioner in respect of assessment for the year 1985-86 was<\/p>\n<p>       rejected by the Assistant Commissioner, Zone-V. The aforesaid<\/p>\n<p>       orders (hereinafter referred to the \u201eimpugned orders\u201f) were<\/p>\n<p>       passed by the authorities under the following circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>2.     The petitioner is a registered partnership registered under the<\/p>\n<p>       Delhi Sales Act, 1975 as well as the Central Sales Act, 1956. Its<\/p>\n<p>       business consist of manufacturing of cycle parts in general and<\/p>\n<p>       &#8220;Fork legs&#8221; in particular which is carrying on        the business<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">WP (C) No.3138 of 1991                                          Page 1 of 5<\/span><br \/>\n        under the name and style of M\/s Durga Industries. As per the<\/p>\n<p>       petitioner, it is allowed to purchase the following goods free of<\/p>\n<p>       tax as per the following entry in column 2 (a) of the C.R.\u201fs&#8221;-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>              &#8220;Welding rod and Iron wire        w.e.f. 12.11.1997<br \/>\n              &#8220;Acids, cutting oil, Gas          w.e.f. 15.2.1979<br \/>\n              Cylinder, Copper coated Welding w.e.f. 6.4.1983<br \/>\n              Wires &amp; Calcium carbide:\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>              Light Diesel Oil&#8221;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>3.     The petitioner had purchased \u201eElectrodes\u201f which according to<\/p>\n<p>       the petitioner was covered by the aforesaid entry and,<\/p>\n<p>       therefore, no sales tax was payable.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>4.     In the assessment year 1983-84, the petitioner filed its return<\/p>\n<p>       which was processed and assessment orders dated 11th<\/p>\n<p>       January, 1988 were passed by the Sales Tax Officer opining<\/p>\n<p>       that the petitioner was entitled to exemption on account of<\/p>\n<p>       purchase of electrodes, cutting oil, acid and LDO and allowed<\/p>\n<p>       the exemption on the basis of registration certification issued to<\/p>\n<p>       the petitioner. Thereafter, this assessment was reopened and<\/p>\n<p>       reassessment order dated 1st June, 1989 was passed under<\/p>\n<p>       Section 24 (1) of the Delhi Sales Tax Act.        However, while<\/p>\n<p>       framing the reassessment in respect of assessment year 1983-<\/p>\n<p>       84, the Assessing Officer passed orders dated 1st June, 1989<\/p>\n<p>       stating that the petitioner was liable to tax on the amount of<\/p>\n<p>       purchase price of \u201eelectrodes\u201f holding         this purchase as<\/p>\n<p>       unauthorized and calling upon the petitioner to pay this<\/p>\n<p>       additional sales tax.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>5.     Likewise, in respect of assessment year 1985-86 assessment<\/p>\n<p>       orders dated 22nd January, 1990 were passed whereby the<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">WP (C) No.3138 of 1991                                        Page 2 of 5<\/span><br \/>\n        petitioner was taxed at the rate of 7% on the purchase welding<\/p>\n<p>       rods worth `64558\/- and an additional amount of `4519\/- was<\/p>\n<p>       credited. Against this order, the petitioner went in appeal and<\/p>\n<p>       the appellate authority confirmed the orders thereby dismissing<\/p>\n<p>       the appeal vide orders dated 12th August, 1991.            After the<\/p>\n<p>       dismissal of this appeal, the petitioner approached this court by<\/p>\n<p>       way of present petition challenging the reassessment order<\/p>\n<p>       dated 1st June, 1989 in respect of assessment year 1983-84 and<\/p>\n<p>       order dated 12th August, 1991 in respect of assessment year<\/p>\n<p>       1985-86.          Perusal of the orders of the Sales Tax authorities<\/p>\n<p>       below     reveled shows that they have relied upon        a Division<\/p>\n<p>       Bench judgment of this court in the case of Commissioner of<\/p>\n<p>       Sales Tax, New Delhi Vs. Standard Metal Industries, 45<\/p>\n<p>       STC 229. On the basis of this judgment, conclusion was drawn<\/p>\n<p>       that the electrodes and iron chains which are used by the<\/p>\n<p>       dealer in the process of manufacturer of iron chains and bolts<\/p>\n<p>       cannot be recorded as &#8220;raw material&#8221;. On the strength of the<\/p>\n<p>       said judgment, a Circular No. 1\/1990-91 had been issued by the<\/p>\n<p>       Additional Commissioner, Sales Tax vide which all the assessing<\/p>\n<p>       authorities had been directed to check the records of the dealer<\/p>\n<p>       registered and deleted the item Oxygen, electrodes, acetylene<\/p>\n<p>       gas, calcium carbide etc. which do not go into the finish product<\/p>\n<p>       but are consumed in the process of manufacture. The Circular<\/p>\n<p>       also provided that failure to comply with the instructions<\/p>\n<p>       contained therein would render the AO to be personally liable<\/p>\n<p>       for any revenue loss on this account.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>6.     Based on the aforesaid ratio in that case, the submission of<\/p>\n<p>       learned counsel for the petitioner was that in the present case<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">WP (C) No.3138 of 1991                                          Page 3 of 5<\/span><br \/>\n        the \u201eelectrodes\u201f do not really disappear and in fact become a<\/p>\n<p>       part and parcel of the finish product and, therefore, would<\/p>\n<p>       continue to remain &#8220;raw material&#8221; and thus shall be covered by<\/p>\n<p>       the exemption entry and, therefore, no sale tax was payable.<\/p>\n<p>       After taking note of the aforesaid contention, the Division<\/p>\n<p>       Bench took the view that in view of the latest judgment of<\/p>\n<p>       Supreme Court in the case of Ballarpur Industries (supra)<\/p>\n<p>       decision of Division Bench of this Court in Standard Metal<\/p>\n<p>       industries (supra) needed reconsideration and matter was<\/p>\n<p>       referred to the larger Bench. This is how the reference arises<\/p>\n<p>       for decision as to whether the Division Bench judgment of this<\/p>\n<p>       Court in Standard Metal Industries (supra) still holds the<\/p>\n<p>       field, and if not, what would be the impact thereof in the<\/p>\n<p>       present writ petition.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>7.     When the matter came up for hearing on 18.02.2011, nobody<\/p>\n<p>       appeared on behalf of the petitioner. Mr. Bhatia, who was present<\/p>\n<p>       in the Court was requested to assist, as he is taken on the panel of<\/p>\n<p>       the Advocates for Sales Tax Department.        Though he informed<\/p>\n<p>       that notification for his appointment is yet to be issued, on our<\/p>\n<p>       request he agreed to assist. According to him, it appears that this<\/p>\n<p>       petitioner firm stood dissolved much earlier and not in the<\/p>\n<p>       business any longer.     That could be the reason that nobody<\/p>\n<p>       appeared on behalf of the petitioner at the time of hearing as well.<\/p>\n<p>       It is also a matter of record that the Delhi Sales Tax Act has since<\/p>\n<p>       been repelled and in its place, Delhi Value Added Tax (DVAT) Act<\/p>\n<p>       has been enacted.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>8.     For all these reasons, we are of the view that it is not necessary to<\/p>\n<p>       answer the reference. It has been rendered infructuous in view of<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">WP (C) No.3138 of 1991                                          Page 4 of 5<\/span><br \/>\n        the aforesaid facts and circumstances of this case.         The writ<\/p>\n<p>       petition is accordingly dismissed as infructuous and also in default<\/p>\n<p>       because of no representation on behalf of the petitioner.<\/p>\n<p>                                                  (CHIEF JUSTICE)<\/p>\n<p>                                                     (A.K.
