Summarize the following court judgment. ivil Appeal No. 283 of 1972. Appeal by Special Leave from the Judgment and Order dated 12 7 1971 of the Delhi High Court in of 1967. Income Tax Reference No. 31 of 1967. Bishamber Lal for the Appellant. V.S. Desai	 J. Ramamurthi and R.N. Sachthey for the Res pondent. The Judgment of the Court was delivered by SARKARIA	 J. This appeal by special leave is directed against a judgment	 dated July 12	 1971	 of the High Court out of these facts: The appellant (hereinafter referred to as the assessee) is an individual. The assessment year is 1955 56. Bharat Union Agencies Pvt. Ltd. had spent Rs.53	398/ after the personal necessities of the assessee during the previous year ending 30 9 1964	 without charging for the same. The assessee was not a director Of the said Company. He however was the beneficial owner of 1800 shares out of the total of 3000 equity shares of the said Company during the previous year. Similarly	 Alien Berry and Co. Pvt. Ltd. had spent a sum of Rs. 4406/ after the personal necessities of the assessee	 without charging for the same. The Income tax Officer treated the total benefit of Rs. 57	804/ received by the assessee from these two Companies	 as his `income ' under section 2(6C)(iii) of the Income tax Act	 1922 which was introduced by the Finance Act	 1955 with effect from 1 4 1955	 and charged it to tax along with some other items of income. The assessee carried an appeal to the Appellate Assistant Commissioner who found that the assessee was beneficial owner of the shares of Bharat Union Agencies Pvt. Ltd. carrying more than 20 per cent of the voting power. He further held on the basis of certain findings in the Report of the Commission of Inquiry on the administration of Dalmia Jain Companies published in 1963	 that the assessee 656 had 100 per cent of the share holding control of Allen Berry and Co. Pvt. Ltd. The Appellate Assistant Commis sioner did not specifically deal with the question whether the assessee was "concerned in the management" of both these Companies. In the result he upheld the order of the Income tax Officer. The assessee preferred a further appeal to the Income tax Appellate Tribunal which held that the assessee was "concerned in the management of the Bharat Union Agencies (P) Ltd.	 being the beneficial owner of shares carrying more than 20% of the voting power	 and as such the benefit of Rs. 53	398/ received by him from that Company was his 'in come ' within the later part of Clause (iii) of section 2(6C) of the Income tax Act	 1922. On this reasoning the Tribunal dismissed the assessee 's appeal in regard to the item of Rs. 53	398/ . However	 it allowed	 on a different ground his appeal with regard to the item of Rs. 4406/ received from Alien Berry and Co. (P) Ltd. In this appeal we are not concerned with that item any more. At the instance of the assessee	 the Tribunal stated the case and referred the following question under section 66(1 ) of the Income tax Act	 1922 to the High Court: "Whether on the facts and in the circum stances of the case	 the sum of Rs. 53	398/ spent by Bharat Union Agencies P. Ltd. after the personal necessities of the assessee is income within the meaning of section 2(6C)(iii) of the Income tax Act	 1922". The High Court answered this question against the asses see. Hence this appeal. At the outset	 Shri Bishamber Lal	 appearing for the appellant	 tried to contend that the item of Rs. 53	398/ received by the assessee from Bharat Union Agencies Pvt. Ltd. was not a "benefit or perquisite" within the contempla tion of section 2(6C)(iii) of the 1922 Act because	 firstly	 the constituents of this item were not cash amounts but gifts or bounties	 and secondly	 the receipt of this benefit by the assessee was unauthorised and could not be claimed by him as of right on the basis of any agreement with the Company. This was altogether a new plea. It was not even indi rectly raised before the authorities under the Income tax Act or the High Court. It has not been raised even in the Special Leave Petition under Article 136 of the Constitu tion. It was never the case of the assessee that this amount of Rs. 53	398/ was not "benefit obtained" by the assessee from the Company within the meaning of section 2(6C) (iii). On the contrary it is apparent from the judgment of the Tribunal	 that there was "no dispute about the fact that the assessee received benefits from both the Companies to the extent stated by the authorities below". i.e. benefits to the extent of Rs. 53	398/ and Rs. 4406/ were received by the assessee from Bharat Union Agencies P. Ltd. and Allen Berry and Co. Pvt. Ltd. respectively. The plea now sought to 657 be raised in regard to the item of Rs. 53	398/ involves a question of fact. We therefore did not permit the Counsel to raise this plea for the first time at the time of argu ments before us. Counsel next contended that the expression "concerned in the management of the business of the Company" takes in only that person who by virtue of a position or office held by him in the Company	 legally and actually participates in the management of its business and not he who holds no such position or office but is in remote control of the Company and its affairs merely on account of being in ownership of a certain number of shares	 carrying more than 20 per cent or even the majority of the voting power. In support of this restricted construction of the term "concerned"	 Counsel referred to a decision of the Madras High Court in Arya Bhavan	 Madras vs M.S. Narayana Rao(1)	 wherein Rajamannar C.J. held that the word "concerned" as used in the context of 'workman ' in section 22 of the Industrial Disputes (Appellate Tribunal) Act	 1950	 connotes a more intimate and direct relation to the matter than the word "interest" and there fore this term should be given a more restricted meaning than the word "interest". Mr. Bishamber Lal also referred to the meaning of the terms "concerned"	 "concerning" as given in the Dictionary	 "Words and Phrases"	 Permanent Edition pp. 504 505 Vol. 8. Before dealing with this contention	 it will be appro priate to examine the material part of section 2(6C)(iii) of the 1922 Act	 which runs as follows: "(iii) the value of any benefit or perquisite	 whether convertible into money or not	 obtained from a company either by a director or by any other person who has a sub stantial interest in the company (that is to say	 who is concerned in the management of the business of the company	 being the beneficial owner of shares	 not being shares entitled to a fixed rate of dividend whether with or without a right to participate in profits	 carrying not less than twenty per cent of the voting power)	 and any sum paid by any such company in respect of any obligation which but for such payment would have been payable by the director or other person afore said. " From an analysis of Clause (iii)	 it is clear that it falls in two distinct parts. The first part is confined to the obtaining of the value of any benefit or perquisite from a Company by a director even if he has no substantial interest in the Company. The second part applies to a person who may not be a director but has a substantial interest in the Company. What is "substantiaI interest" is further equated by the succeeding expression	 "that is to say"	 with the coexistence of two elements	 namely	 (i) concern in the management of the business of the Company	 and (ii) beneficial ownership of shares (not being shares entitled to a fixed rate of dividend) carrying not less than twenty per cent of the voting power. There is no dispute before (1) A.I.R. 1960 Mad. 658 us that the assessee had obtained the benefit of Rs. 53	398/ from Bharat Union Agencies Pvt. Ltd. It is further admitted that he holds 1800 shares out of the total of 3000 equity shares in this Company	 carrying a voting power of 60 per cent. Thus	 the existence of the second element is more than satisfied. Controversy pivots around the first element	 only. The arguments which have been advanced before us on behalf of the assessee with regard to the construction and application of the expression "concerned in the manage ment" of the business of the Company	 were canvassed before the Tribunal	 also. The Tribunal repelled these arguments. The reasoning of the Tribunal with which the High Court found itself entirely in agreement is as under: "Shri Sharma conceded the position that the assessee was controlling both the Compa nies. in question. To exercise control over a Company is something more than to manage the Company. A person who manages the company may not necessarily be in a position to con trol the business or affairs of the Company. He may be managing under the instructions of. those who are controlling the Company. But a person who controls a Company also directly or indirectly through the managerial staff manages the business of the Company. It is again not necessary that the person who man ages the business of the Company should be rightfully entitled to do it. A person who is not rightfully entitled to manage the business of the Company but usurps the power by virtue of his certain position	 is	 in our opinion	 certainly a person covered by this expression. It is also not necessary. that the management should be carried on in an ostensible manner. One who carried on the management indirectly and imperceptibly through the persons who outwardly and ostensi bly carry on the management is covered by the expression. It is not necessary	 in our opinion	 that the management should be both seen	 and felt; it is sufficient if it is felt	 without being seen. " In our opinion	 the above is a correct exposition of the law on the point. The word "concern" is not a term of art	 having a precise	 fixed meaning. It has several nuances	 and is used to convey diverse shades of meaning over a wide spectrum. It may mean "to have a relation to	 or bearing on	 be of interest or	 importance" or "to have an anxiety	 worry". "Concerned" as an adjective may mean "interested"	 "involved". In one context	 it may mean one thing	 and in a different context another. The decisions as to the mean ing of this word used in a different context in another statute	 are scarcely of much value in construing it in the setting of the provision with which we are concerned. The best way therefore to construe this word is with refer ence to the context in which it is used. In sub clause (iii) of section 2(6C) of the Income tax Act	 1922	 the word "concerned" takes its colour from the words "in the manage ment of the business" in association with which it occurs. In the context of business	 "manage" means "to control	 to guide	 to administer	 to conduct or direct affairs; 659 carry on 'business ' (Shorter Oxford Dictionary	 Webster New World Dictionary). "Management" includes the act of manag ing by direction	 or regulation	 or administration or con trol or superintendence. Construed with reference to the context	 and the circum stances of a case	 the expression "person concerned in the management of the business" may take in not only .a person who directly participates or engages in the management of the business but also one who indirectly controls its man agement through the managerial staff	 from behind the scenes. The assessee 's admission that he is in control of the Company necessarily includes an admission of his being "concerned in the management of the business of the Compa ny"	 We	 therefore	 agree with the High Court	 that the ambit of the term "concerned" in section 2(6C)(iii) cannot be restricted to a person who is an employee of the business or an office holder of the Company. In the context of "manage ment" it is wide enough to include every person 'interested ' in the management	 in the sense of having the direction and control of the managerial staff. On the facts of the case	 the assessee was such a person. We are therefore	 of opinion that the High Court was right in answering the question referred to it	 against the assessee. The appeal fails and is dismissed with costs. P.B.R. Appeal dismissed.

Section 2(6C)(iii) of the Income tax Act	 1922 provides that the value of any benefit or perquisite	 whether con vertible into money or not	 obtained from a company either by a director or by any other person who has a substantial interest in the company (that is to say	 who is concerned in the management of the business of the company	 being benefi cial owner of shares	 not being shares entitled to fixed rate of dividend carrying not less than 20% of the voting power) and any sum paid by any such company in respect of any obligation which	 but for such appointment	 would have been payable by the director or other person aforesaid is income. The assessee was the beneficial owner of 1800 out of 3000 equity shares of a company. He was	 however	 not its director. He had a similar interest in another company. Both the companies had spent on his personal necessities a large sum of money	 which the Income tax Officer treated as his income under section 2(6C)(iii) of the Act. The Appellate Assistant Commissioner	 as also the Tribunal	 dismissed his appeal against the order of the Income tax Officer and the High Court answered the reference against the assessee. In appeal to this Court it was contended that the ex pression "concerned" in the management of the business of the company takes in only the person who legally partici pates in the management of its business and not one who has only remote control of its business. even if he had the majority of voting power. Dismissing the appeal	 HELD: The expression "person concerned in the management of business"may take in not only a person who directly partici pates or engages in the management of the business but also one who indirectly controls its management through the managerial staff from behind the scenes. [657 B] 1. (a) The term "concerned" in section 2(6C)(iii) cannot be restricted to a person who is an employee of the business or an office holder of the company. In the context of "manage ment" it is wide enough to include every person "interest ed" in the management	 in the sense of having the direction and control of the managerial staff. [659 C D] (b) The word "concerned" is not a term of art	 having a precise and fixed meaning. It has several nuances	 and is used to convey diverse shades of meaning. It may mean "to have a relation to. or bearing on	 be of interest 0r importance" or "to have an anxiety	 worry". "Concerned" as an adjective may mean "interested"	 "involved". In one context	 it may mean one thing and in a different context another. [658 G H] (c) The word "concerned" takes its colour from the words "in the management of the business" in association with which it occurs. In the context of business	 "manage" means "to control. to guide. to administer to conduct or direct affairs '	 carry on 'business. "Management" includes the act of managing by direction or regulation or adminis tration or control or superintendence. [658 H	 659 A] 655 (2) The first part of the clause is confined to the ob taining of the value of any benefit or perquisite from a company by a director	 even if he has no substantial inter est in the company. The second part applies to 2a person who may not be a director but has a substantial interest in the company. What is "substantial interest" is further equated by the succeeding expression "that is to say" with the co existence of two elements	 namely	 (i) concern in the management of the business of the company and (ii) benefi cial ownership of shares (not being shares entitled to a fixed rate of dividend) carrying not less than 20% of the voting power. [657 G H] In the instant case	 the assessee	 Obtained the benefit from the company holding 1800 out of 3000 shares	 that is	 carry ing a voting power of 60% and	 therefore	 satisfied the second element. His own admission that he was in control of the company necessarily includes an admission of his being "concerned in the management of the business of the company". [658 A B]
