Mr.Mohamed Jina, a Dawoodi Bohra merchant is representative of such itinerant merchants. Mr Mohamed Jina from Vapi, India, travelled to Singapore on business in 1963 and died in Singapore. This is an exemption certificate issued by the Income Tax Department, Bombay, exempting Mr.Jina from having to present a clearance certificate.
