In the absence of any violation noted by RBI regarding activities of a liaison office, it does not constitute a PE in India

June 9, 2012 744 Views 0 comment Print

India does not subscribe to the OECD model; hence, the commentary may have only persuasive value. However, it is needed to examine whether the India office was carrying on any essential and significant part of the activity in the scheme of business of the assessee. The Tribunal concurred with the decision of the case laws relied on by the assessee holding that where the RBI does not find any violation of an condition(s) imposed on its functioning, it shall be presumed to be carrying on preparatory or auxiliary activities until established otherwise. The Tribunal relied on the decision of the HC in the case of UAE Exchange Centre, where it was held that an LO cannot be construed as a PE unless its activities exceeds the permitted activities or the department is able to establish the contrary.

Taxability of Interest on sick loans, accrued but not recognised as per AS – 9

June 8, 2012 1871 Views 0 comment Print

In the instant case, the assessee did not account the interest income as there was uncertainty about its recovery. The apprehension or the situation foreseen by the assessee has been vindicated by the subsequent developments, which were well highlighted in the written submissions furnished before us. Hence we are of the view that the decision taken by the assessee for not accounting the accrued interest on the reason that there was uncertainty about its recovery cannot be found fault with. It may also be noted that the assessee itself has become defunct.

Revenue having accepted the declaration of the valuation of the selfsame jewellery given by the assessee as on 31st March, 1989 as correct valuation for the purpose of Wealth Tax Act, there is no reason why the same valuation should not be treated to be a reliable base for the purpose of computing the capital gain under the Act by the process of reverse indexation.

Singapore Court dismisses India’s request to disclose black money

June 8, 2012 345 Views 0 comment Print

Information under article 28 of DTAA cannot be disclosed on the basis of un-signed transfer requests of Indian national to a Swiss Bank to transfer money to overseas bank accounts of two foreign companies. The Indian tax authority seized documents from an Indian national which were believed to indicate the existence of undeclared income deposited in a company’s bank accounts in Singapore. Pursuant to Article 28 (1) of the India-Singapore DTAA, the Indian tax authority sent a request for information to its Singapore counterpart (the Comptroller of Income-tax). In support of the request, the Indian tax authority relied on unsigned transfer instructions allegedly issued by the Indian national as evidence that the Indian national remitted monies to the Singapore Company’s bank accounts. The Comptroller filed an application in the High Court u/s 105J of the Singapore Income-tax Act for an order requiring the bank to produce the company’s bank records.

Composite contract cannot be split to exempt profits from offshore supply of goods

June 8, 2012 1084 Views 0 comment Print

What was the purpose for which the tender was invited by BMRC cannot be in doubt in this case. It was for installing the signaling and communication system for the metro rail. It was not for supply of offshore equipments independently of the installation and commissioning. Nor was it for independent installation and commissioning, divorced from the design and supply of the equipments necessary. Such a contract has necessarily to be read as a whole and is not capable of being split up.
