Protection of revenue: (To prevent evasion of taxation) The Courts may ignore the corporate entity of a company where it is used for tax evasion. (Juggilal V. Commissioner of Income Tax, B.F. Guzdar v. Commissioner of Income Tax Bombay). 2. Prevention of fraud or improper conduct: The legal personality of a company may also be disregarded in the interest of justice where the machinery of incorporation has been used for some fraudulent purpose like defrauding creditors or defeating or circumventing law. Professor Gower has rightly observed in this regard that the veil of a corporate body will be lifted where the 'corporate personality is being blatantly used as a cloak for fraud or improper conduct'. Thus where a company was incorporated as a device to conceal the identity of the perpetrator of the fraud, the Court disregarded the corporate personality (Jones v. Lipman) (Gilford Motor Co. v. Home). 3. Determination of character of a company whether it is enemy: A company may assume an enemy character when persons in de facto control of its affairs are residents in an enemy country. In such a case, the Court may examine the character of persons in real control of the company and declare the company to be an enemy company. (Daimler co. Ltd. v. Continental Tyer & Rubber co. Ltd). 4. Where the company is sham: The Courts also lift the veil or disregard the corporate personality of a company where a company is a mere cloak or sham (hoax). (Gilford Motor Co. Ltd. v. Home). 5. Company avoiding legal obligation: Where the use of an incorporated company is being made to avoid legal obligations, the Court may disregard the legal personality of the company and proceed on the assumption as if no company existed. 6. Company acting as agent or trustee of the shareholders: Where a company is acting as agent for its shareholders, the shareholders will be liable for the acts of the company (F.G. Films Ltd., In re.) 7. Avoidance of welfare legislation: Where the courts find that there is avoidance of welfare legislation, it will be free to lift the corporate veil. (Workmen of Associated Rubber Industry Ltd. v. Associated Rubber Industry Ltd.). 8. Protecting public policy: The courts invariably lift the corporate veil or a disregard the corporate personality of a company to protect the public policy and prevent transactions country to public policy. (Connors v. Connors Ltd.). 9. In quasi-criminal cases: The courts pierce the corporate veil in quasi-criminal cases in order to look behind the legal person and punish the real persons who have violated the law. 10. Trading with enemy country. 11. Evasion of taxes. 12. Forming a subsidiary company to act as its agent. 13. The benefit of limited liability is destroyed by reducing the number of members below 7 in the case of public company and 2 in the case of private company for more than six months. 14. Under law relating to exchange control. 15. Device of incorporation is adopted to defraud creditors or to avoid legal obligations. Answer : 2 (6 Marks) Members who are aware of the fact are personally and severally liable for the whole of the debts contracted after 6 months of such reduction. 3|Page MITTAL COMMERCE CLASSES IPCC – MOCK TEST Answer : 3 (6 Marks) According to Section 3 of the Payment Bonus Act, 1965, where an establishment consists of departments or undertakings or has branches irrespective of whether they are situated in the same place or in different places, all such departments or undertakings or branches are to be treated as part of the same establishment for the purpose of computation of bonus under the Act. But proviso to the section states that where for any accounting year a separate balance sheet and profit and loss account are prepared and maintained in respect of any such department or undertaking or branch, then, such department or undertaking or branch shall be treated as a separate establishment for the purpose of computation of bonus under this Act for that year, unless such department or undertaking or branch was, immediately before the commencement of that accounting year treated as part of the establishment for the purpose of computation of bonus. Referring to the provisions of Section 3, Company is engaged at three different units located at three separate places in the country where separate balance sheet and profit & loss account are being maintained for the three units separately and hence the proviso to Section 3 will be applicable in this case. For the purpose of Bonus under the Act, the units will be treated as three separate establishments and accordingly, the employees of the unit incurring losses cannot claim bonus on the ground that the unit incurring loss is a part of one single establishment. However, the employees of the loss making unit can claim the minimum bonus as per section 10 of the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965. Answer : 4 (6 Marks) (1) A probationer is an employee within the meaning under section 2(13) and as such is entitled to bonus per Section 8 of the Payment of Bonus Act [Bank of Madura Ltd. vs. Employee's Union, 1970]. It is important to understand the difference between a probationer and an apprentice. A probationer is an employee who is not yet permanent but is under the probation. If he performs well, he will get to be permanent in his employment. On the other hand an apprentice is a person who is a trainee in a factory learning work on a machine and he is excluded from the definition of "employee". (2) An apprentice, is not included in the definition of "employee" under section 2(13) and hence is not entitled to bonus per Section 8 of the Payment of Bonus Act. [Wheel & RIM Co. v. Government of T.N. (1971) 2 LLJ 299 40 FJR 18] (3) According to Section 14, when an employee had been laid off under: (i) an agreement; or (ii) as permitted by the standing orders under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act; or (iii) under the Industrial Disputes Act, or (iv) under any other applicable law then the days on which he has been laid-off shall be deemed to be the lays on which the employee has worked during the accounting year. In the given case, the employee had been laid off for 20 days and had attended work for 22 days in the entire accounting year equaling to 42 total working days. An employee is entitled to bonus when he has worked in the establishment for not less than thirty working days in the year (Section-13). So, in this case, the employee is entitled to get bonus provided his lay off is covered in one of the above mentioned grounds. COSTING Answer : 1 (3 × 2 = 6 Marks) (a) Bills of material 1.
