Monday’s announcement of the new Direct Taxes Code (DTC) proposals is among the two far-reaching reforms that will help India sustain high growth rates. For the capital markets, the Bill is positive, says Rakesh Arora, associate director, Macquarie Research. “Lower tax liability for companies at about 10 per cent and no changes in capital gains tax for foreign institutional investors (FIIs) are beneficial for the capital markets and ensure greater investor interest.”
The Life Insurance Corporation of India has made a strong case for continuing tax breaks on life insurance policies bought with an investment objective. Referring to the Direct Tax Code proposal that extends tax-breaks to only those policies that have a sum insured of at least 20 times the premium paid, LIC chairman TS Vijayan said the important thing was that life insurance investments were long-term and protection-oriented.
If the Direct Taxes Code Bill does not undergo further changes, employees in the lower tax bracket will get more retirement benefits, provided they opt for a higher basic salary. “Contributions made towards retirement benefits are linked to the basic salary. And the Bill has removed the existing cap on employers’ contribution towards the superannuation fund,” says Mayur Shah, associate director, Ernst & Young.
Sale proceeds of carbon credits will not escape tax when the new Direct Taxes Code comes into effect from April 1, 2012. This is because the DTC Bill 2010 has explicitly stated that money received or receivable from transfer of carbon credits will be treated as business income and taxed accordingly. Such a provision if enacted will remove the current uncertainty surrounding the taxation of carbon credits, say tax experts.

TAXATION OF EMPLOYMENT INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS: There is an increase in exemption limit for medical reimbursement from Rs 15,000 to Rs 50,000.

Even if assessee has disclosed nil income and on verification of the record, it is found that certain income has been concealed or has wrongly been shown, in that case, penalty can still be levied.
Where it was clear from the original assessment orders as well as order made by the appellate authority that the Assessing Officer was well aware about the primary facts, viz., the claim made by the assessee, the circumstances under which the claim was made, and the provisions of law which could be applied while granting the benefits, and the Assessing Officer consciously considered the facts and arrived at a decision, the assessment cannot be reopened merely because subsequently the Assessing Officer changes his opinion or some other officer takes a different view.
