1. Short title. - This Act may be called the Maharashtra Provisional Collection of Taxes Act, 1962.

2. Definitions. - In this Act, unless the context otherwise requires,-

(1) a "declared provision" means a provision in a Bill in respect of which a declaration has been made under section 3:

(2) "tax" includes any rate, cess, duty, fee, toll or other impost, whether general or local or special.

3. Power to make declarations under this Act. - Where a Bill to be introduced in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly on behalf of the State Government provides for the imposition or increase of a tax, the State Government may cause to be inserted in the Bill a declaration that it is expedient in the public interest that any provision of the Bill relating to such imposition or increase shall have immediate effect under this Act.

4. Effect of declarations under this Act and duration thereof. - (1) A declared provision shall have the force of law from 5 p.m. (Standard Time) on the day on which the Bill containing it is introduced or published in the Official Gazette, whichever day is earlier.

(2) A declared provision shall cease to have the force of law under the provisions of this Act-

(a) when it comes into operation as an enactment, with or without amendment, or

(b) when the State Government, in pursuance of a motion passed by the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, directs, by notification in the Official Gazette, that it shall cease to have the force of law, or

(c) if it has not already ceased to have the force of law under clause (a) or clause (b), then on the expiry of the sixtieth day after the day on which the declared provision has the force of law under sub-section (1).

5. Certain refunds to be made when declarations cease to have effect. - (1) Where a declared provision comes into operation as an enactment in amended form before the expiry of the sixtieth day after the day on which such provision has the force of law under sub-section (1) of section 4, refunds shall be made of all taxes collected which would not have been collected if the provision adopted in the enactment had been the declared provision:

(2) Where a declared provision cases to have the force of law under clause (b) or clause (e) of sub-section (2) of section 4, refunds shall be made of all taxes collected which would not have been collected if the declaration in respect of it had not been made.
