No deemed dividend if shareholding of a common shareholder is less than 20%

July 20, 2012 1045 Views 0 comment Print

The Assessing Officer had considered that a common shareholder ‘P’ has substantial shareholding of more than 10 per cent. While analyzing substantial interest, the Assessing Officer has only considered Explanation 3 with reference to a person having beneficial interest entitled to not less than 20 per cent of income of such concern so as to attract provisions of section 2(22)(e). However, the Assessing Officer has not examined definition given in section 2(32) with reference to company which has a substantial interest in company, wherein it was specifically mentioned of carrying not less than 20 per cent of voting power. Admittedly, ‘P’ has less than 20 per cent shareholding in both companies, i.e., assessee as well as ‘A’. Therefore, reasoning given by Assessing Officer of a common shareholding by ‘P’ does not hold good. Further, it is an admitted fact that assessee is not owning any share in ‘A’ and provisions of section 2(22)(e) do not apply unless assessee is a shareholder in the company. For both the reasons, the order passed by the Commissioner (Appeals) was to be upheld.

No penalty proceeding if Assessee pays service tax before issue of SCN

July 20, 2012 6333 Views 0 comment Print

Provisions of the section 73(1A) of the Finance Act, 1994 will apply in full force in this case, as there is payment of entire amount of service tax liability and interest thereof before the issuance of show cause notice (SCN). In my view, it is a fit case wherein the proceedings initiated against the assessee for the imposition of penalties, under various sections needs to be set aside and I do so.

Service tax Penalty for late payment cannot exceed tax amount

The ld. A.R. submits that penalties have been imposed because they did not pay in time the tax due. We find that there is no case for imposing penalty for an amount more than net tax liability. So the penalty under Section 78 is reduced to Rs. 18,889/-. Further, penalty under Section 76 is waived and also the appellant is given an opportunity to pay 25% of the penalty under Section 78 in 30 days of receipt of the order. If such payment is not made in such timeframe full penalty will be payable.
