In our order in AAR No.1009 of 2010 (SEPCO III Electric Power Corporation), we had taken the view that if the applicant before this Authority had already filed a return of income involving the amount arising out of the identical transaction on which a question for our ruling is raised by filing an application under section 245Q(1) of the Income-tax Act, the application before the Authority for Advance Rulings will be barred by the clause (i) of the proviso to section 245R(2) of the Act and the application will have to be rejected. On an application made by the applicant therein before this Authority to review or reconsider the correctness of that view, after considering the relevant aspects pointed out, this Authority again reiterated its view. The correctness of this view so taken is again sought to be canvassed in this Application and the other Applications heard along with it containing similar fact situation.

It is enough if bad debt written off as irrecoverable in the accounts of assessee, subject to provisions of S. 36(2)

February 18, 2012 2063 Views 0 comment Print

After 1-4-1989, it is not necessary for the assessee to establish that the debt, in fact, has become irrecoverable. It is enough if the bad debt is written off as irrecoverable in the accounts of the assessee, subject to the provisions of section 36(2) that such debt or part thereof has been taken into account in computing the income of the assessee of the previous year in which the amount of such debt or part thereof is written off or of an earlier previous year. As the appellant has shown the amount of Rs.23,00,894/- (claimed as short recoveries or bad debts written off) as its income in assessment years 2007-08 & 2008-09, the conditions laid down in the provisions of section 36(1 )(vii) read with section 36(2) of the Act have been fulfilled by the appellant. In these circumstances, it is held that the contention of the appellant is correct. The Assessing officer is accordingly directed to delete the addition ofRs.23,00,894/-.

Kirti Realtors Pvt. Ltd. Vs. ITO (ITAT Delhi) – The remand report submitted by AO does not deny the fact that Mr. Jagdish Beniwal was acting as a coordinator for facilitating the purchase of pieces of lands in Alwar for and on behalf of the assessee. It has also not been denied that assessee did not give advance imprest money to him. Mr. Jagdish Beniwal has accepted that he used to assist assessee and thereafter the assessee was dealing with farmers directly. This does not rule out his role as a coordinator till the conveyances were registered. In his statement he has himself accepted having received an amount of Rs. 60,00,000/- from assessee and about the cash disbursement on pertinent question,

If AO objects to admission of additional evidence, then CIT(A) should give categorical finding in terms of Rule 46A for admission thereof

February 17, 2012 2222 Views 0 comment Print

ITO Vs. Kuber Chand Sharma, In our considered view, CIT(A) has admitted the additional evidence without fulfilling the categorical conditions laid down in Rule 46A, as explained by Hon’ble Delhi High Court in the case of Manish Build Well Pvt. Ltd.(supra). Consequently, his order on this issue is not tenable, however, the issue of merits remains. Besides, from the record it emerges that the assessee wanted to file only government records and revenue record about crops. In the entirety of facts and circumstances, the interest of justice will be served if the matter is set aside, restored back to the file of AO to decide the same afresh after affording the assessee sufficient opportunity of being heard.

When the company is under liquidation, appeal could only be filed by official liquidator

February 17, 2012 4108 Views 14 comments Print

Kuber Mutual Benefits Ltd. Vs. ACIT (ITAT Delhi) – It is not in dispute that assessee company is under liquidation and official liquidator stands already appointed by the order of the Hon’ble Court. As per Companies Act, 1956, no doubt, powers of liquidator which includes the power to defend legal proceedings, civil or criminal are to be in the name and on behalf of the company. Section 178 of the I.T. Act, 1961 recognizes the official liquidator as the concerned person in the case company is under liquidation. Similarly section 2 (7) defines the word assessee. It includes such persons also as assessee who are deemed to be an assessee under any provision of this Act.
