Carbon Credits entitlement is capital receipt & can’t be taxed as a revenue receipt

November 2, 2012 2386 Views 0 comment Print

Carbon credit is not an offshoot of business but an offshoot of environmental concerns. No asset is generated in the course of business but it is generated due to environmental concerns. Credit for reducing carbon emission or greenhouse effect can be transferred to another party in need of reduction of carbon emission. It does not increase profit in any manner and does not need any expenses. It is a nature of entitlement to reduce carbon emission, however, there is no cost of acquisition or cost of production to get this entitlement. Carbon credit is not in the nature of profit or in the nature of income.

Nor is it the assessee’s case that there was a separate agreement between the technicians and itself and that the only role played by Toyo was the provision of technicians and not the rendering of technical services through them.
