Welfare measures means such services, facilities and amenities as may be established in or in the vicinity of undertakings to enable the persons employed in them to perform their work in healthy, congenial surroundings and to provide them with amenities conducive to good health and high morale. After the independence, the Government of India makes strict rules and regulations to safeguard the interest of the workers in the factories. The present article pertains to the welfare measures provided to the workers as per the provisions laid down in Chapter 5 (Section 42 to 50) of The Factories Act, 1948 for the benefit of employees of the factories. This article also tries to analyze the effectiveness of these welfare provisions. It is analytical and descriptive in nature and doctrinal in approach.Keywords

Administration of justice is one of the most essential and primary functions of a State. Justice is a concept of moral rightness based on ethics, rationality, law, natural law, religion, fairness, or equity, along with the punishment of the breach of said ethics. The terms most frequently used by lawyers in the praise or condemnation of law or its administration are the words 'just' and 'unjust' and very often they write as if the ideas of justice and morality were coextensive. To clear the confusion, there are various theories of Justice put forth by different jurists such as Aristotle, Dworkin, Rawls etc. This Article firstly deals with the pros and cons of the theories and concept of justice and also explains its relation with law. It is analytical and descriptive in nature and doctrinal in approach.Keywords

In the ultimate analysis, some human beings are the real beneficiaries of the corporate advantages, for while, by fiction of law, a corporation is a distinct entity yet in reality, it is an association of persons who are in fact the beneficiaries of the corporate property. Therefore, it may happen that the corporate personality of the company is used to commit frauds or improper or illegal acts like tax evasion. Thus, the concept of piercing or lifting the corporate veil holds significance. A corporate veil may be pierced either through statutory provisions or by judicial interpretation. Piercing the corporate veil in taxation matters is an outcome of judicial decisions. This Article firstly deals with the pros and cons of the concept of tax evasion and piercing the corporate veil. It pertains to situations in which piercing of corporate veil in taxation matters is considered valid and convincing. Then it goes on to emphasizing the notion, construction and legality of lifting the veil in India, United States and United Kingdom. It also stresses on the Direct Tax Codes and the scope of piercing the veil. It is analytical and descriptive in nature and doctrinal in approach.Keywords

- For instance, the Court of Appeal in Adams v. IndustriesPlc [[1990] 2 W.L.R. 786, HL.], refused to lift the veil as against the defendant company on the ground that the right to use a corporate structure can be denied only in case of illegality and not immorality.

- See, W. T. Ramsay v. Inland Revenue Commissioners [[1982] AC 300] was a significant departure from the Westminster principle. In the instant case, the House of Lords considered a tax avoidance scheme which consisted of a series or a combination of transactions each of which was individually genuine but all of which as a whole resulted in tax avoidance. The House laid the principle that the fiscal consequences of a preordained series of transactions, intended to operate as such, are generally to be ascertained by considering the result of the series as a whole. It is not to be ascertained by dissecting the scheme and considering each individual transaction separately.
- See, CIT v. A. Raman & Co. [(1986) 67 ITR 11] the Supreme Court held that the avoidance of tax liability is not prohibited. Legislative injunction in taxation statutes may not, except on peril of penalty, be violated, but it may lawfully be circumvented.
