Case Laws / Head Notes / Paras

Fiscal statute—While interpreting fiscal statutes, the court looks to what is clearly said and there is no room for any intendment nor is there any equity about a tax—There is no presumption as to tax and nothing was to be read in or implied and one could only look fairly at the language used.
