Summarize the following court judgment. Appeals Nos. 326 and 327 of 1967. Appeals from the judgments and orders dated May 3	 1966 of the Madhya Pradesh High Court in Misc. Civil Cases Nos. 186 of 1963 and 39 of 1964. M. C. Chagla	 Ashoke Chitale and Rameshwar Nath	 for the appellant (in both the appeals). section C. Manchanda	 G. section Sharma	 R. N. Sachthey and B. D. Sharma	 for the respondent (in both the appeals). The Judgment of the Court was delivered by HEGDE	 J. The question of law arising for decision in these appeals by certificate under section 66A(2) of the Indian Income tax Act	 1922 (to be hereinafter referred to as the Act) is "Whether on the facts and in the circumstances of the case	 the managing directors remuneration received by Sri Rajkumar Singh was assessable in his individual hands and not in the hands of the assessee Hindu Undivided Family ?" This question was referred by the Income tax Appellate Tribunal	 Bombay Bench 'A to the High Court of Judicature at Bombay on an application made under section 6(1) of the Act by the Commissioner of Income tax	 Madhya Pradesh. The High Court has answered that question in favour of the Revenue. As against that decision this appeal has been brought. The assessee in this case is a Hindu Undivided Family and the concerned assessment year is 1954 55	 the relevant accounting period being the year ending Diwali 1953 i.e.	 November 6	 1953. Previously a Hindu Undivided Family was carrying on business under the name and style of Sarupchand Hukamchand. That family was carrying on several businesses one of which was the management of certain mills. That family disrupted on March 750 30	 1950. The assessee is the branch of that family. On March 31	 1950	 a company under the name and style of Sarupchand Hukumamchand Private Ltd. was incorporated. The capital of the company consisted of Rs. 5 crores divided into 20	000 preference shares of Rs. 1	000 each and Rs. 3	000 ordinary shares of Rs. 1	000 each. The company itself was incorporated for the purpose of acquisition from M/s. Sarupchand Hukumchand	 certain managing agencies	 businesses	 factories and properties and for that purpose to enter into an agreement with the said firm and to carry on business as managing agents of Rajkumar Mills Ltd.	 the Hukamchand Mills Ltd. and the Hira Mills Ltd. and the other businesses mentioned more particularly in the Memorandum of Association of the company. The first Directors of the company were (1) Sir Hukamchand Saroopchandji (2) Rajkumarsingh Hukamchandji (3) Lady Kanchanbai Hukamchandji (4) Mrs. Premkumaridevi Rajkumarisinghji (5) Raja Bahadursingh Rajkumarsinghji (6) Rustomji Cowasji Jall. The qualification prescribed for a director under article 53 was the holding of at least 10 shares in the company whether preference or ordinary or partly preference or partly ordinary. article 55 provided that the Directors may from time to time	 appoint one or more of their body to the office of managing Director or manager on such terms and at such remuneration as may be determined by the Directors. In pursuance of the powers conferred on them under article 55	 the Directors by their resolution dated March 31	 1950 appointed for the purpose of management of the business of the company Sir Hukumchand Rajoahadur	 Rajkumar and Rajabahadur as managing Directors of '	he company on a remuneration of Rs. 5	0001 per month for each of them for their services. Under article 63	 the Directors were given certain powers for the management of the company. they were subject to the control of the Board of Directors. The three branches of the	 original Hindu Undivided Family namely the branches of Sir Seth Hukumchand	 Lady Kanchanbai and Sri Rajkumarsingh	 were allotted 5	000 shares of the face value of Rs. 1	000 each. The assessee 's branch represented by its Karta got 5	000 shares. Rajkumar acquired 30 further shares in the name of his wife	 Premkumari and 10 shares in the name of Rajabahadur. The consideration for all these subsequent acquisitions was admittedly from the Hindu Undivided Family funds. All the 5	030 shares were treated in the books	 and the 751 balance sheet of the assessee family as its property. The dividends in respect of these shares were also credited to the account of the family. Sir Hukumchand died and after his death the other two continued to be the managing Directors. For the years 1951 52	 1952 53 and 1953 54	 the receipt of this Rs. 5	00011 per month received as remuneration was treated as the income of Rajkumar as an individual and assessed on that basis. Similarly the remuneration received by Sir Hukumchand and Rajabahadur have been and continued to be assessed as their individual income. In making the assessment of the assessee in the year 1954 55	 the Income tax Officer referred to this item in the following words "It was claimed that the income from managing directors remuneration and from directors fees is assessable in his hands in individual capacity. As was done in the early assessments also. " For that reason he did not assess the sum of Rs. 60	000/and the sitting fee of Rs. 1	420/ received by Rajkumar in the account year relevant to the assessment year 1954 55 in the hands of the Hindu undivided family but they were assessed in	 the hands of Rajkumar as an individual. On January 10	 1961	 the Commissioner of Income tax	 in exercise of his power under section 33(B) issued a notice to the assessee to show cause why the assessment of the assessee for the assessment year 1954 55 should not be revised by treating the sum of Rs. 60	000/ plus Rs. 1	42O/ as the income of the assessee Hindu Undivided Family of which Rajkumar was the Karta. The assessee opposed that notice. He claimed the amount in question as his individual income. The Commissioner did not accept the contention of the assessee and purporting to rely on the decision of this Court in Commissioner of Income tax	 West Bengal vs Kalu Babu Lal Chand	(1) held that income was of the assessee. He taxed the assessee accordingly. Aggrieved by that decision	 the assessee took ' us the matter in appeal to the Income tax Appellate Tribunal. Before the tribunal	 learned Counsel for the assessee conceded that the sitting fee of Rs. 1	420/ may be treated as the income of the assessee. Hence the dispute centered round the sum of Rs. 60	000	/ received by Rajkumar as salary. The tribunal upheld the contention of the assessee. The tribunal after tracing the history of the Private Ltd. Co. of Rajkumar was a Director and the manner in which the earlier assessments were made observed : "From the facts set out above it is clear that this is not a part and parcel of the same transaction or the same scheme of arrangement. Whatever may be said of (1) 37 I. I. T. R. 123.; 752 the bigger Hindu undivided family	 it was sheer accident of circumstances that the smaller Hindu undivided family came to hold these shares. Both Rajkumar and Rajabahadur belong to the same branch and both of them are managing directors. The managing directors were appointed by a resolution of the Board of Directors and they were subject to removal by the Directors at any time. The appointment of managing director was not conditioned upon either Rajkumar or Rajabahadur acquiring these shares. On the disruption of the larger Hindu undivided family the smaller Hindu undivided family got for its share certain shares. Whatever may be said of the directors. ' fees	 that having been now conceded as income of the Hindu undivided family	 the same cannot be said of the managing directors ' remuneration. The managing director holds office by virtue of the resolution of the Board of Directors. He may not be a servant of the Company but still he receives his salary for his personal services. The contribution of the capital may at best be considered as acquiring the qualification of a director. It is not all people who hold shares that could automatically aspire +to be managing directors. There is no evidence to show that Rajkumar and Rajabahadur were appointed managing directors on behalf of the family or that the income was earned by utilizing the joint family property or was detriment to the family property. There is no material in this case to hold that the acquisition of the business or flotation of the company and the appointment of the managing directors were inseparably linked together. As already noticed right up to the accounting year relevant to the present assessment year the income was treated as income of Rajkumar in his individual capacity. It is true no doubt that there is no question of res judicata but this fact has certainly to be taken into consideration. This income has been assessed under section 7. It has been earned by Rajkumar for his services. It has accrued in his hands. It is open to him to give it over to the family and the mere fact that it was included in the family 's account or the balance sheet cannot in any event affect the question at issue. . . Rajkumar was not appointed as managing director as a result of any outlay or expenditure of or detriment to the family property. The managing directorship was an employment of personal responsibility and ability and the mere fact that certain qualification shares and other shares were property of the Hindu undivided 753 family was not the sole or even the main reason for his appointment to the responsible post of managing director. We are clearly of the opinion therefore that the remuneration received by Rajkumar was assessable only in his hands as an individual and cannot be con sidered as and clubbed with the income of the Hindu undivided family." The High Court of Madhya Pradesh did not agree with the conclusion reached by the Income tax Appellate Tribunal. It felt that in view of the	 decision of this Court in Commissioner of Income tax	 West Bengal vs Kalu Babu Lal Chand(1) the answer to the question referred to it should be in favour of the Revenue. The question of law arising for decision in this case has been the subject matter of numerous decisions of this Court and of various High Courts. But yet the law cannot be said to have been settled beyond controversy. The two opposing view points to which we shall refer presently try to seek sustenance from one or the other decisions of this Court. As far back as 1921 in Gokul Chand vs Hukum Chand Nath Mal( ') the Judicial Committee ruled "that there could be no valid distinction between the direct use of the joint family funds and the use which qualified the members to make the gains on his efforts". In making this observation	 the Judicial Committee appears to have been guided by certain ancient Hindu law texts. That view of the law became a serious impediment to the progress of the Hindu society. It is well known that the decision in Gokul Chand 's case( ') gave rise to great deal of public dissatisfaction and the central legislature was constrained to step in and enact the (30 of 1930) which nullified the effect of that decision. Then came the decision of this Court in Commissioner of Income tax vs Kalu Babu Lal Chand. (1) On the facts of that case	 this Court held that the remuneration earned by Rohatgi as the managing director of a firm was the income of his Hindu Undivided Family. The facts of that case were somewhat peculiar. They were set out at p. 130 of the report. It would be best to quote that passage which reads : "Here was the Hindu undivided family of which B. K. Rohatgi was the karta. It became interested in the concern then carried on by Milkhi Ram and others under the name of India Electric Works. The karta was one of the promoters of the company which he floated with a view to take over the India Electric Works as a going concern. In anticipation of the incorporation of that company the karta of the family took over the (1) 69 Sup. C.I. (P)/71 4 (2) 48	 I. A. 162. 754 concern	 carried it on and supplied the finance at all stages out of the joint family funds and the finding is that he never contributed anything out of his separate property	 if	 he had any. The Articles of association of the company provided for the appointment as managing director of the very person who	 as the karta of the family	 had promoted the company. The acquisition of the business	 die flotation of the company and appointment of the managing director appear to us to be inseparably linked together. The joint family assets were used for a cquiring the concern and for financing it and in lieu of all that detriment to the joint family properties the joint family got not only the shares standing in the names of two members of the family but also	 as part and parcel of the same scheme	 the managing directorship of the company when incorporated. It is also signi ficant that right up to the accounting year relevant to the assessment year 1943 44	 the income was treated as the income of the Hindu undivided family. It is true that there is no question of res judicata but the fact that the remuneration was credited to the family is certainly a fact to be taken into consideration. " The next came the decision of this Court in Mathura Prasad vs Commissioner	 of Income tax( '). The facts found in that case are more or less similar to those found in Kalu Babu Lal Chand 's case (2 ). Those facts are : Mathura Prasad	 the manager of his Hindu Undivided Family had entered into a partnership as representing his family of which he was the karta for the benefit of the family. There was also no dispute that in the firm of Badri Prasad Jagan Prasad	 the assets of the assessee family were 	vested. The Tribunal found that Mathura Prasad	 the manager	 became a partner in the firm with the help of joint family funds and as partner he was entrusted with the management of the Agarwal Iron Works. On the basis of those facts	 it was held that the allowance received by Mathura Prasad was therefore directly related to the investment of the family funds in the partnership business. In the course of the judgment	 it was observed : " It was suggested that Mathura Prasad earned the allowance sought to be brought to tax because of the special aptitude he possessed for managing the Agarwal Iron Works	 and the allowance claimed by him was not earned by the use of the joint family funds. But no such contention was raised before the High Court. We have been taken through the petition filed in the High (1) (2) 37 I.I.R. 123. 755 Court under section 66(2) of the Act	 and there is no averment to the effect that Mathura Prasad had any special aptitude for management of the Agarwal Iron Works	 and what was agreed to be	 paid to him was as remuneration for performing services because of such aptitude. " Then we come to the decision of this Court in Piyeare Lal Adishwar	 Lal vs Commissioner of Income tax( '); Therein one Sheel Chandra	 who was the karta of his Hindu Undivided family consisting of himself and his younger brother	 furnished as security his family properties for being appointed the treasurer of a bank. He would not have been appointed treasurer of the bank but for the security given. In that case also	 it was contended on behalf of the Commissioner of Income tax that the salary earned by Sheel Chandra was a family income and is liable to be taxed as such. That contention was negatived by this Court. From that decision it follows that it is not any add every kind of aid received from family funds which taints an income as family income. Before 'an income earned by the exertions of a coparcener can be considered as a family income	 a	 direct and substantial nexus between the income in dispute and the family funds should be established. On October 27	 1967	 this Court rendered three different decisions namely V. D. Dhanwatey vs Commissioner of Income tax	 M.p.(2)	 M. D. Dhanwatey vs Commissioner of Income tax	 M.P.( ') and section RM. Palaniappa Chettiar vs Commenr. of Income tax	 Madras (4 ) ; The facts in V. D. Dhanwatey 's case are : V. D. Dhanwatey as the karta of his Hindu undivided family was a partner of a firm. His contribution to the capital of the firm belonged to the family. Interest was payable on the capital contributed by each partner. Under cl. (7) of the deed of partnership the general management and supervision of the partnership business was to be in the hands of V. D. Dhanwatey. Under cl. ( 1 6)	 he was to be paid monthly remuneration at the gross earning of the partnership business. The question was whether the salary received by V. D. Dhanwatey was assessable in the hands of his Hindu Undivided Family. On the above facts	 the High Court held that the remuneration paid to V. D. Dhanwatey was only an increased share in the profits of the firm paid to V. D. Dhanwatey as representing his Hindu undivided family and hence the said amount was taxable in the hands of his undivided family. By a majority decision this Court agreed with the view taken by the High Court. This Court held that the remuneration paid by the firm to V. D. Dhanwate directly related to the invest (1) (3) (2) (4) 756 ments in the partnership business from the assets of the family and that there was real and sufficient connection between the investments from the joint family funds and the remuneration paid to him. On that basis this Court ruled that the salary paid to V. D. Dhanwatey was assessable as the income of his Hindu Undivided Family. The facts found in M. D. Dhanwatey 's case( ') were that M. D. Dhanwatey	 as the karta of his Hindu undivided family was a partner in the firm. His share in the capital of the firm was entirely contributed by the family. Clause (5) of the deed	 of partnership providedfor payment of interest to the partners on their share contribution. Under Cl. (8)	 he was to be the manager in charge of the works and under cl. (16) he was to be paid a monthly remuneration. The question was whether the salary received by him could be included in the total income of his Hindu undivided family. This Court held that the salary received by him could be included in the total income of his Hindu undivided family. In Pataniappa Chettiar 's case 2 the facts found are as fol lows : In 1934	 the karta of a Hindu undivided family acquired 90 out of 300 shares in a transport company with the funds of the family. There were initially four shareholders including the karta and two of them were directors. On the death of one of them in 1941	 the karta became a director of the company. On the death of another	 who was managing the business of the company	 he became the managing director of the company in 1942. At the relevant period he was entitled to a salary and a commission on the net profits of the company. The managing director had control over the financial and administrative affairs of the company and the only qualification under its articles of association was the qualification of a	 director	 viz.	 the holding of not less than 25 shares in his own right. The question was whether the managing director 's remuneration and commission and sitting fees received by the karta were assessable as the income of the family. This Court held that the shares were acquired by the family not with the object that the karta should become the manazing director but in the ordinary course of investment and there was no real connection between the investment of joint family funds in the purchase of the shares and the appointment of the karta as managing director of the company. The remuneration of the managing director was not earned by any detriment to the joint family assets. Hence the amount received by the karta as managing director 's remuneration	 commission and sitting fees were not assessable as the income of the Hindu undivided family. (1) (2) 757 The next case decided by this Court was Commissioner Income tax	 Mysore vs Gurunath Dhakappa(1). Therein the karta of a Hindu Undivided family was a partner in a registered firm	 representing his family. He was appointed manager of the firm on a remuneration of Rs. 5001 per month. For the assessment year 1960 61	 he received a sum of Rs. 14	737/ from the firm including a sum of Rs. 6	000/ as	 his salary for managing the firm 's business. There	 was no finding that the salary received	 by the karta had directly related to the assets of the family utilised in the firm. On the basis of those facts	 this Court held that the sum of Rs. 6	OO0/ could not be treated as the income of the ' Hindu undivided family. In the course of the judgment this Court observed "In the absence of a finding that the income which was received by Dhakappa was directly related to any assets of the family utilised in the partnership	 the income cannot be treated as the income of the Hindu Undivided Family. " Then we come to the decision of this Court in P. N. Krishna lyer vs Commissioner of Income tax	 Kerala. ( ') Therein Krishna lyer	 the karta of his Hindu undivided family received salary	 commission and sitting fees as governing director of a private company which carried on transport business	 The shares which qualified the karta to become a member of the company were purchased with the aid of joint family funds. The entire capital assets of the company originally belonged to the joint family and were made available to the company in consideration of a mere promise to pay the amount for which the assets were valued. dividends from shares of the value of Rs. 4	88	000 allotted to the karta by the company in consideration of valuable services rendered by him were also treated as belonging to the family. The Tribunal held that the income from salary	 commission and sitting fees earned by the karta was his separate income. The High Court	 on a reference	 held that the income was assessable in the hands of the family. On appeal this Court held that the question whether the income was the income of the Hindu undivided family or of the individual	 was a mixed question of law and fact and the final	 conclusion drawn by the tribunal from the primary evidentiary facts was open to challenge on the plea that the relevant principle has been misapplied by the tribunal. On the facts of the case	 this Court affirming the decision of the High Court held that the income was primarily earned by utilising the joint family assets or funds and the	 mere fact that in the process of gaining the advantage an element of personal service or skill or (1) (2) 758 labour was involved did not alter the character of the Income. Therein this Court further observed that in cases of this class the character of the receipt had to be	 determined by reference to its source	 its relation to the assets of the family of which the recipient was a member and the primary object with which the benefit received was disbursed. Lastly we come to the decision of this Court in Commissioner of Income tax	 Mysore vs D. C. Shah. ( ') Therein the respondent	 a Hindu undivided family was the partner in two firms through its karta D. C. Shah. The karta was paid by the two firms remuneration as a managing partner. He was found to be a man of rich experience in the line of business which the two firms were carrying on. Clause (8) of the partnership deed of the first firm provided that Shah who has been managing the business of the firm shall continue to act as managing partner for conducting the said business free from any interference of the other partners with power to manage	 direct	 appoint and/or remove	 any one of the employees and/or do all other things including the right to draw cheques	 to make	 deliver and accept documents either legal or commercial in respect of the partnership business. Clause (9) provided that Shah shall continue to be the managing partner for his lifetime or his retirement whichever is earlier. In the deed of the second firm Clause (14) provided for appointment of another partner	 K	 as the managing partner and gave the managing partner powers similar to those in the deed of the other firm. Clause (15) provided for Shah 's appointment after K 's retirement and Shah was appointed after his retirement. No other partner was paid any salary in this firm. On these facts this Court held that there was no real or sufficient connection between the investment of the joint family funds and the remuneration paid to Shah and that remuneration was not earned on account of any detriment to the joint family assets and the remuneration received by Shah as the managing partner of the two firms was not assessable as the income of his Hindu undivided family. At first sight there appears to be conflict between the two lines of decisions namely Kalu Babu 's case	 Mathura Prasad 's case; two Dhanwatey 's cases and Krishna Iyer 's case on one side Palaniappa Chettiar 's case	 Dakappa 's case	 and D. C. Shah 's case on the other. The line that demarcates these two lines of decisions is not very distinct but on a closer examination that line can be located. In order to find out whether a given income is that of the person to whom it was purported to have been given or that of his family	 several tests have been enumerated in the aforementioned decisions but none of them excepting Kalu Babu 's case (1) 759 makes reference to the observations of Lord Sumner in Gokal Chand 's case that "in considering whether gains are partible	 there is no valid distinction between the direct use of the joint family funds and a use which qualifies THe member to make the gains by his own efforts". We think that principle is no more valid. The other tests enumerated are : (1) whether the income received by a co parcener of a Hindu undivided family as remuneration had any real connection with the investment of the joint family funds; (2) whether the income received was directly related to any utilization of family assets; (3) whether the family had suffered any detriment in the process of realization of the income; and (4) whether the income was received with the aid and assistance of the family funds; In our opinion from these subsidiary principles	 the broader principle that emerges is whether the remuneration received by the coparcener in substance though not in form was but one of the modes of return made to the family because of the investment of the family funds in the business or whether it was a compensation made for the services rendered by the individual coparcener. If it is the former	 it is an income of the Hindu undivided family but if it is the latter then it is the	 income of the individual coparcener. If the income was essentially earned as a result of the funds in vested the fact that a coparcener has rendered some service would not change the character of the receipt. But if on the other hand it is essentially a remuneration for the services rendered by a coparcener	 the circumstance that his services were availed of because of the reason that he was a member of the family which had invested funds in that business or that he had obtained the qualification shares from out of the family funds would not make the receipt	 the income of the Hindu undivided family. Applying the tests enumerated above to the facts found by the tribunal in the present case	 there is hardly any room to doubt that the income in question was the individual income of Rajkumar. He did not become the managing director of the firm for the mere reason that his family had purchased considerable shares in the firm. He was elected as a managing director by the board of directors. The tribunal has found that he received his salary for his personal services. There is no material to hold that he was elected managing director on behalf of the family. In the past the. salary received by him was assessed as his individual income. The same was the case as regards the salary received by the other managing 	directors. The tribunal has found that he was not appointed as 760 managing director as a result of any outlay or expenditure of or detriment to the family property. It has further found that the managing directorship was an employment of personal responsibility and ability. In these circumstances we agree with the conclusions reached by the tribunal that the income in question cannot be treated as the income of the assessee. For these reasons we are unable to agree with the High Court that the income in question can be held to be the income of the assessee. Hence this appeal is allowed and in the place of the answer given by the High Court to the question referred to it	 we answer that question as follows : On the facts and in the circumstances of the case the managing director 's remuneration received by Raj Kumar Singh was assessable as his individual income and not as the income of his Hindu undivided family. The department shall pay the costs of the appellant both in this Court and in the High Court. Hearing fee one set. Y.P. Appeal allowed.

A Hindu undivided family carrying on management of a company disrupted into 3 branches	 one being that of the assessee	 and the shares of the company were more in the names of his family members. The consideration for all these subsequent acquisitions was from the Hindu undivided family funds. All the shares the previous and subsequent acquisition were treated in the books and the balance slice of the assessee family as its property and its dividends were also credited to the account of the family. As Managing Director of the company the assessee received certain remuneration. On the question whether the managing director 's remuneration received by the assessee was assessable in his individual hands or in the hands of the assessee 's Hindu undivided family	 this Court HELD : The remuneration was assessable as the assessee 's individual income and not as the income of his Hindu undivided family. The broad principle that has	 to be applied in such cases is whether the remuneration received by the coparcener in substance though not in form was but one investment of the family funds in the business or whether it was a compensation made for the services rendered by the individual coparcener. If it is the former	 it is an income of the Hindu undivided family but if it is the latter then it is the income of the individual coparcener. If the income was essentially earned as a result of the funds in vested the fact that a coparcener has rendered some service would not change the character of the receipt. But if on the other hand it is essentially a remuneration for the services rendered by a coparcener	 the circumstances that his services were availed of because of the reason that he was a member of the family which had invested funds in that business or that he had obtained the qualification shares from out of the family funds would not make the receipt	 the income of the Hindu undivided family. [759 D] Applying the tests enumerated above to the facts found by the tribunal in the present case	 there was hardly any room to doubt that the income in question was the individual income of assessee. He did not become the managing director of the firm for the mere reason that his family had purchased considerable shares in the firm. He was elected as a managing director by the board of directors. The tribunal had found that he received his salary for his personal services. There was no material to hold that be was elected managing director on behalf of the family. In the past the salary received by him was assessed as hi 	 individual income. The same was the case as regards the salary received by the other managing directors. The tribunal had found that he was not appointed as managing director as a result of any outlay or expenditure of or detriment to the family property. It had further found that the managing directorship was an employment of personal responsibility and ability.
