Secondly, even if the extraneous evidence produced is taken into account, then also it does not warrant the conclusion that the shop in dispute was taken by Shambhu Dutt as karta of the joint family for the business of the family. On the other hand, this evidence, says the counsel, shows that the son, Jugal Kishore, has been running his separate business in the shop.
