DCIT v. Bank of America NT & SA (ITAT Mumbai) – Tribunal held that interest received on income tax refund can be set-off against the interest paid on delayed payment of income tax and only net amount is to be taxed. The issue before the tribunal was that Whether interest income received by the taxpayer on income tax refund can be set-off against delayed payment on income tax? Whether the taxpayer can offer the net interest received as income?
The Tata Power Company Limited Vs ACIT- The Tribunal reiterated that the incidence of liability to pay DDT arises the moment such dividend is distributed (declared) and any subsequent events can have no bearing on such liability, even if such event renders dividend non-taxable in the hands of the recipient. It was not possible to extend the same analogy laid down by the cases cited pertaining to tax-ability of dividend in the hands of shareholder to a case of refund of DDT already paid by the Company declaring dividend.
SC refers Appeal by Ram Jethmalani against purported inaction of Government to arrange for recovery of large sums of money deposited by Indian citizens in foreign banks to Honourable the Chief Justice of India.
On the date of filing of the present application before us relating to the rights and obligations arising out of the contract dated 10.5.2006 entered into by the applicant, in so far as it relates to the question posed in this application, was pending before the concerned assessing officer. We re-emphasize that merely because a questionnaire in general terms is served or a questionnaire raising specific issues is served as a further step towards completing the assessment, cannot lead to the position that the question sought to be raised before us is not pending before the assessing officer when the return of income is filed. We are, therefore, satisfied that the allowing of this application under section 245 R(2) of the Act for giving a ruling under section 245R(4) of the Act is barred by virtue of the proviso to section 245R (2) of the Act. The application is, therefore, rejected.
It is very important to have the knowledge of provisions of deemed dividend under section 2(22)(e) of the Income tax act, 1961 before making any transaction with the closely held companies.
Maa Vaishno Devi Ginning Pressing Udhyog Dhamnod Vs. DCIT (ITAT Indore) – No evidence was either found during survey or explained by the assessee which could establish that the surrendered income was earned from industrial undertaking. There is a uncontroverted finding in the impugned order that no purchase bills, sale bills, ginning charges bills, pressing charges bills were found during survey operation which remained to be recorded in regular course of business of industrial undertaking, therefore, there is no basis for claiming the surrendered income to be generated from/derived from the industrial undertaking. There is further finding that no entry tax, sales-tax, other taxes were found paid by the assessee on such unrecorded transactions, therefore, the onus is clearly on the assessee to substantiate its claim which has not been discharged.
By way of this appeal, the Assessing Officer has challenged correctness of CIT(A)’s order dated 29th March 2010, in the matter of assessment under section 143(3) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 for the assessment year 2 004-05, mainly on the following ground:
Assessee has been following cash system of accounting and this method has been regularly employed by the assessee in recording its day today business transaction. It is not a case where the assessee has been maintaining its accounts of day to day business under the mercantile system of accounting and thereafter prepares accounts in accordance with cash system of accounting for income tax purposes. The AO has placed strong reliance on the decision of the ITAT Delhi in the case of Amarpali Mercantile Pvt. Ltd.(supra).
DCIT Vs BP India Services Pvt Ltd (ITAT Mumbai)- Decisive factors for determining inclusion or exclusion of any case in/from the list of comparables are the specific characteristics of services provided , assets employed, risks assumed, the contractual terms and conditions prevailing including the geographical location and size of the markets, costs of labour and capital in the markets etc. Nowhere, the higher or lower profit rate, as presumed by the ld. CIT(A), has been prescribed as the determinative factor to make a case incomparable. Rightly so, because profit is not a factor in itself, but consequence of the effect of various factors. Only if the higher or lower profit rate results on account of the effect of factors given in rule 10B(2) read with sub-rule (3), that such case shall merit omission. If however such extreme profit rate is achieved because of factors other than those given in the rule, then such case would continue to find its place in the list of comparables.
ICAI & ANR. Vs DGIT (EXEMPTIONS) (Delhi High Court)- Even if the profits earned are used for charitable purposes, but fee, cess or consideration is charged by a person for carrying on any activity in the nature of trade, commerce or business or any activity of rendering of any service in addition to any trade, commerce or business, an institution will not be regarded as established for charitable purpose/activity (it would be covered under the proviso and the bar/prohibition will apply)
