Unless specifically mentioned in treaty withholding tax rate not to include cess and surcharge

April 9, 2013 1345 Views 0 comment Print

In respect of a taxpayer to whom the double taxation avoidance agreement applies, the provisions of the Indian Income-tax Act shall apply to the extent they are more beneficial to that taxpayer. In other words, if the provisions of DTAA are more beneficial to the taxpayer, then the provisions of DTAA would prevail over the Indian Income-tax Act. Since the DTAA is silent about the surcharge and education cess for the purpose of deduction of tax at source, this Tribunal is of the considered opinion that the taxpayer may take advantage of that provision in the DTAA for deduction of tax. The CIT(A) has only deleted the tax component to the extent of surcharge and education cess at the rate applicable under the DTAA. Therefore, this Tribunal do not find any infirmity in the orders of lower authority. Accordingly the same are confirmed.

Reopening under compulsion of audit party withput AO’s Independent Opinion not valid

April 9, 2013 639 Views 0 comment Print

it is well settled that even if an issue is brought to the notice of the Assessing Officer by the audit party, it would not preclude the Assessing Officer from acting on such communication as long as the final opinion to take appropriate action is that of the Assessing Officer and not that of the audit party. Referring to the decision in case of CIT v. P.V.S Beedies (P.) Ltd. [1999] 237 ITR 13, it is equally well settled however that if the Assessing Officer has acted only under compulsion of the audit party and not independently, the action of re-opening would be vitiated.

TPO can take domestic unrelated parties as comparables if Assessee having similar transactions with them

April 8, 2013 447 Views 0 comment Print

In our opinion, the assessee himself having taken these two non-related parties as comparables in its TP study, it cannot now turn back and say that one of the parties is not comparable without giving any cogent or convincing reason. The only reason given by the assessee in this regard is that the use of technology availed from Dupont has restricted application. It is, however, observed from the relevant figures that the domestic sales generated by the assessee using the technology of Dupont is quite comparable with the domestic sales generated from the use of technology of its AE Kansai Japan. There is thus no merit in the stand of the assessee that Depont is not a comparable case with Kansai Japan.

No capital gain tax on revaluation of assets on conversion of firm into private limited company

April 8, 2013 7092 Views 0 comment Print

The hon’ble Ahmedabad Income-tax Appellate Tribunal in the case of Well Pack Packaging v. Deputy CIT reported at [2003] 78 TTJ (Ahd) 448 has held that revaluation of depreciable assets and conversion of a partnership firm into company does not lead to incidence of capital gain inasmuch as revaluation is made in the hands of the assessee by writing up the value of assets in the books. In view of the provisions of sections 575, 576 and 577 of the Companies Act, 1956, there is no transfer involved when a company got itself registered under Part IX of the Companies Act. In view of this, there is no question of applicability of the provision of section 45 or 50 or any other provisions of the Income-tax Act arise on conversion of a firm into company.
