Effect of amalgamation on corporate identity and liabilities was determinative: because the assessment related to a transferor company that had been amalgamated, its liabilities could not be attributed to that non-existing entity and the banking attachment enforced against the petitioner could not be sustained. Liability of a former director was rejected as the petitioner had resigned before the assessment periods and thus could not be held personally responsible for the companys tax debt. Reliance on a provision purporting to fasten director liability was held inapplicable where the transferor company stood amalgamated and the tax authorities could proceed against the amalgamated entity instead.
