For Deemed Dividend, accumulated profits do not include current year’s business profit, since it accrues only at end of year

November 16, 2012 8932 Views 0 comment Print

Thus, it has been held that the accumulated profits do not include current year’s business profit, since it accrues only at the end of the year. Further the loan or advance treated as deemed income up to the date of fresh loan is to be reduced from the accumulated profits. Consistent with the view taken by the Ahmedabad bench in the above said case, we also hold so.

Addition based on mere AIR not justified when income declared far exceeds the income shown in AIR

November 16, 2012 1747 Views 0 comment Print

Tribunal held that in the absence of any material brought by the revenue authorities that the assessee has received amount more than the professional fees which has been declared by him in the P&L account and when the professional income declared by the assessee far exceeds the professional fees shown in the AIR information, then additions solely based on the AIR information are not sustainable.

Recalling of order by Tribunal is not permissible u/s. 254(2)

November 16, 2012 1446 Views 0 comment Print

The scope and ambit of application of section 254(2) is very limited. The same is restricted to rectification of mistakes apparent from the record. Recalling the entire order obviously would mean passing of a fresh order. That does not appear to be the legislative intent. The order passed by the Tribunal under section 254(1) is the effective order so far as the appeal is concerned.

Order of attachment u/s. 226(3) not justified if AO passes unspeaking order u/s. 220(6)

November 16, 2012 19479 Views 0 comment Print

Under Section 220(6) of the Act, where an appeal was pending against the assessment order, the assessee was not to be treated as an assessee in default in respect of the amount in dispute in appeal, in the discretion of the Assessing Officer on such conditions as he may think fit to impose. The Assessing Officer is, thus, required to pass a reasoned speaking order.

Provision for bad & doubtful debts not allowable unless provided in Books of Accounts

November 16, 2012 25653 Views 0 comment Print

We have carefully gone through sec. 36(1)(viia) of the Act. The deduction under that section is allowed in respect of any provision for bad and doubtful debts made by the assessee. Hence, the condition for allowing any deduction is the creation of any provision for bad and doubtful debts, which can only be created in the books of accounts maintained by the assessee. Since the assessee has claimed the sum of Rs.32,72,731/- without making any provision as stated in sec. 36(1)(viia) of the Act, we are of the view that the tax authorities are justified in disallowing the same.

Penalty justified for claiming of deduction for R&D activity after discontinuance of business

November 15, 2012 495 Views 0 comment Print

The first question is whether the assessee-company had produced reasonable evidence to support its claim of incurring expenditure to the extent of Rs. 32,99,650. The answer is a categorical “no”. This position has been upheld even by the Tribunal. The assessee has not produced details or any evidence to support its claim of expenditure to the extent of Rs. 32,99,650.
