https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=198167 A joint Hindu family was held to have disrupted on 4 November 1945, as shown by documentary evidence, including a partnership deed, an income-tax endorsement, and an arbitration award and decree recording partition, together with the parties' conduct and admissions. An acknowledgment can extend limitation against family members only if it is made by the manager of a subsisting joint family; once disruption occurs, the erstwhile karta loses representative authority. No general notice of severance to creditors is required, and the creditor must satisfy himself that the signatory still has authority. The acknowledgments therefore did not bind the former members or save the claim from limitation. en-us Fri, 30 Jan 1976 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 24 Jan 2018 15:24:43 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=198167 A joint Hindu family was held to have disrupted on 4 November 1945, as shown by documentary evidence, including a partnership deed, an income-tax endorsement, and an arbitration award and decree recording partition, together with the parties' conduct and admissions.
