In the instant case, the assessee-trust is carrying on various activities in the nature of trade, commerce or business and rendering its services for the purpose of trade, commerce and business, because it is charging huge fees on account of various facts. No doubt, the assessee has given some explanation for charging fees by stating that it is charging fees as per rules framed by the Punjab Local Bodies Govt., which is clearly the admission by it that it is doing activities not for charitable purpose but for business purpose only.
In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (1) of section 80CCG of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (43 of 1961), the Central Government hereby makes the Rajiv Gandhi Equity Savings Scheme (RGESS). The purposes of the government behind such scheme are to provide tax benefits to investors investing directly and to lure investors in to stock market and broaden investor base in stocks.
HC held that CIT had rightly rejected the application of the petitioner for approval under Section 10 (23C) (iv) of the Act on the ground that the petitioner has not rendered its services directly to the farmers but is rendering its services directly to its clients/agents who are engaged in trading of the certified seeds with profit motive and therefore its activities are not for the ‘advancement of any other object of general public utility’ and hence not for ‘charitable purpose’ in view of second limb of the first proviso to Section 2 (15) of the Act.
Hon’ble Punjab & Haryana High Court in case of Kim Pharma (P.) Ltd. (supra) held that surrendered income during the survey has to be assessed separately as deemed income and set off of losses u/s 70 & 71 was not possible against such income.
Notification No. 54/2012-Income Tax In exercise of the powers conferred by Explanation 2 to section 90 of the Income- tax Act, 1961 (43 of 1961), the Central Government hereby notifies Sint Maarten, a part of Kingdom of Netherlands, the area outside India as the ‘specified territory’ for the purposes of the said section.
Having found a good case for the appellant on the question whether the order-in-original was issued and dispatched in accordance with the relevant provision of law, we have to remand this case to the learned Commissioner (Appeals) with a request to consider the assessee’s appeal filed against the order-in-original to have been filed within time and then to proceed to dispose it of on merits in accordance with law and the principles of natural justice. Accordingly, we set aside the impugned order and allow this appeal by way of remand for the aforesaid purpose. The stay application also stands disposed of.
We find that there is no reason whatsoever set out in the show cause notice as to why the Commissioner was of the view that the assessment order is erroneous and prejudicial to the interest of the revenue. Unless the Commissioner specifically sets out such reasons in the show cause notice, and hears the assessee on the same, it is not open to him to exercise his revision powers under section 263 of the Act.
The assessee has got the occupancy right in perpetuity as assessee can transfer his occupancy rights of the premises under consideration by way of sale to a third party subject to condition that transferee is to deposit the required amount of interest free security deposit with HPPL. The consideration to be received by the assessee on transfer of his occupancy right is not to be refunded to HPPL.
In the light of above discussion, we find that the assessee has failed to establish that the substantial part of business of the company is money lending and the loans and advances received to the assessee is the in the ordinary course of money lending business.
For the aforesaid reasons, we do not find that the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal committed any error in arriving at findings that the interest are not deposits of non-SLR funds and the cooperative bank will qualify for exemption under Section 80P (2) (a) (i) of the Act.
