A perusal of the statutory provisions makes it clear that it does not provide a blanket deduction i.e. in order to succeed in a claim of deduction; the concerned assessee has to derive profits and gains from any business referred to in sub-section (4). Further, sub-section (4) prescribes applicability of clause i.e. the case in which the deduction provision would apply. It is in this sub-section that the legislature has enumerated the nature of the undertakings, their activities in contributing raising of infrastructure.
Deeming of income accruing or arising in India are those situations where income has not actually accrued or arisen in India but still it will be deemed to accrue or arise in India. Hence, both the situations are mutually exclusive. If one case is falling within the ambit of income accrued and arisen in India, it cannot fall within the ambit of income deemed to accrue or arise in India and vice versa.
After considering the rival submissions and examining the record, there is no bona fide reason for excluding the above amount from the computation of income by assessee. As seen from the computation statement, assessee has not even claimed the tax credit for the amount deducted in Korea as the same has to be given credit in the hands of the principal company in Japan.
Passing of an order under Section 158BC rests on the previous approval of the Commissioner. On a reading of Section 158BG, particularly the proviso, reveal the mandatory nature of such an approval, that the proviso reads as ‘provided that no such order shall be passed without the previous approval of the Commissioner …’. In the background of the above-said provisions, in keeping the law declared by the Apex Court in Sahara India (Firm)’s case (supra) that with civil consequences flowing out of such an approval, we have no hesitation in accepting the plea of the assessee that in the face of such an approval granted to the order passed under Section 158BC, there can be no assumption of jurisdiction by an authority of the same rank under Section 263 of the Act.
On appeal, the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) by order dated 07/06/2007 held that foreign travel of the officers did not give rise to any benefit of an enduring nature but enabled efficient running of its business and therefore was revenue in nature. Thus the deduction on account of expenses on account of foreign travel was allowed as claimed by the respondent.
In the original assessment order deduction under section 80I had been granted on the total income, inclusive of the income under section 68 of the Act. The grant of such deduction was not questioned by the revenue at the relevant time. When the matter reached the Tribunal, the same was remitted to the Assessing Officer for reconsideration of the issue pertaining to addition of Rs. 59,56,000/- credited in the books of account by way of share application money on the ground that the same was an unexplained credit out of income from undisclosed sources of the assessee.
The intent and purport of the CBDT circular No.4/2007 dated 15.06.2007 is to demonstrate that a tax payer could have two portfolios, namely, an investment portfolio and a trading portfolio. In other words, the assessee could own shares for the purposes of investment and/or for the purposes of trading.
A number of countries have provided for General Anti Avoidance Rules (GAAR) in matters relating to taxation. While tax mitigation is recognized, tax avoidance is frowned upon. International literature describes tax avoidance as the legal exploitation of tax laws to one’s own advantage and an arrangement entered into solely or primarily for the purpose of obtaining a tax advantage.
The proviso to sub-section (1) to section 209, inserted by the Finance Act, 2012 is prospective in nature and not with retrospective effect. The proviso was brought into operation with effect from 1-4-2012, therefore, the assertion of revenue is disagreed with. Even otherwise, the language used in section 209(1) is regarding payment of advance tax in the financial year, therefore, the proviso is not attracted for the impugned assessment year.
