Fixed deposit cannot be considered as deposit in capital gain bond to claim exemption U/s. 54EC

December 21, 2012 1667 Views 0 comment Print

The taxpayers have deposited the amount in the fixed deposit in State Bank of Travancore, Pettah Branch, Trivandrum. The amount was not deposited in the capital gain bond. The claim of the taxpayers before this Tribunal is that the money was intended to be deposited in the capital gain bond. However, the bank deposited the amount in the fixed deposit. We are unable to accept the claim of the taxpayers. The legislature has framed the scheme for the purpose of giving exemption from the capital gain tax by asking the taxpayer to deposit the amount in the capital gain bond scheme. Therefore, if the taxpayer wants to take benefit of the scheme the money has to be deposited in the capital gain bond. Deposit of money in the fixed deposit cannot be construed as deposit in the capital gain bond. If at all there was any negligence on the part of the bank then it is open to the taxpayer to claim damages against the bank for the negligence, if any, committed by the officials of the bank. However, under the Income-tax Act, since the money was not deposited in the capital gain bond, the taxpayers are not eligible for exemption at all. Therefore, the orders of lower authorities are confirmed.

We may notice the judgment of Apex Court in CIT v. United Trading & Construction Co., [2001] 247 ITR 819 that there is nothing in Section 24 of the Finance (no. 2) Act which prevents the Income Tax officer, if he is not satisfied with the explanation of the assessee about the genuineness of sources of amounts found credited in his books to add them to the assessee’s income amount in spite of these having already been made the subject matter of the declaration made by the depositors/creditors. This point, thus, also goes against the appellant.
