There were seven partners, including Shri Jayantilal K. Patel of Ahmedabad and Shri Rohit J. Patel, the assessee, from Bombay. 3. In his assessments for the asst. yrs. 1973-74 to 1975-76 the assessee declared Inter alia, income by way of share in the firm of J.K. Tubewells Co. This in turn, included income attributable to the business of the N.B. Tubewells Co. in Nepal. The ITO made the corresponding assessments including such income in the total of the assessee. 4. further, the ITO passed orders under s. 91 holding that the assessee, along with the six other persons, had been assessed in Nepal in the name of N .....
