CIT(A) must give sufficient time to A.O. for preparation of Remand Report

May 31, 2012 1703 Views 0 comment Print

After hearing the rival submissions and on careful perusal of materials available on record, keeping in view of the fact that sufficient opportunity of being heard to AO has not been given by ld. CIT(A) for preparation of Remand Report and further keeping in view of the fact that all the materials placed before ld. CIT(A)has not been sent to AO for his consideration, in our considered opinion, the order of ld. CIT(A) is not in accordance with the principles of natural justice. Therefore we set aside the order of ld. CIT(A) and restore the matter to the file of AO to re-decide all the three issues afresh by taking into consideration of the various submissions and documents placed before ld. CIT(A) and after giving a reasonable opportunity of being heard to assessee.

Once foreign travelling accepted for business purpose then part of amount cannot be disallowed on account of personal use unless it is established

May 31, 2012 1157 Views 0 comment Print

It is not disputed that the directors of the company have undergone foreign travelling for the purpose of export and looking for the business avenues abroad. The details submitted by the assessee though only provides the date of travelling, details of country visited and amount of fare, visa charges and other miscellaneous expenses incurred, however, the Assessing Officer has not brought anything in record to show that the foreign travelling was for personal purposes. Once the foreign travelling has been accepted for the purpose of business then part of the amount cannot be disallowed on account of personal user unless it is established that there was personal and non business expenditure. Since no basis has been given nor anything adverse has been brought on record, the ad hoc addition of Rs. 5,00,000/- cannot be disallowed. Thus, the order of the CIT(A) confirming the addition is set aside and accordingly, ground of appeal No.2 is allowed.

Where assessee is payee and not payer, no question of its defaulting in TDS deduction u/s 194J arises

May 30, 2012 2078 Views 0 comment Print

It is necessary that the assessee or the person concerned liable to deduct and pay the TDS must be responsible for paying to a resident any sum, by way of fees for professional services, fees for technical services, royalty or any sum referred to in clause (va) of sec. 28. Whereas just contrary to the said conditions, in the instant case, the assessee company has not paid even a single penny to its super stockiest. Rather, it is just the opposite. The super stockist is paying to the assessee company for the produce of Drugs.

If a particular sum is not income, requirement of making TDS non-existent

May 30, 2012 1303 Views 0 comment Print

Section 201(1) uses the expression ‘any person, who is required to deduct any sum in accordance with the provisions of the Act…..’. Assessee’s stand was that there was no such requirement. As per the provisions of section 194C, an amount has to be deducted out of the sum in pursuance to a contract, at the time of payment/credit towards income-tax on the income comprised therein in terms of section 194C. When a particular sum is not income at all for an assessee, the requirement of making TDS is non-existent.
