Section 11 of the Income-Tax Act, 1961 (the Act) excludes from the income of charitable or religious trusts, income to the extent it is applied towards the objects of such trusts, during the previous year in India. It may be stated here that there are several conditions laid down under section 11 of the Act, for the purpose of claiming exemption in respect of the income of a charitable or religious trust.
In this regard it may be stated that in the case of a charitable / religious trusts, even capital expenditure is considered as application of income towards the objects of the trust. Therefore, it is the view of the Assessing Officers that if depreciation is allowed on the assets of such a trust, then the same will lead to double deduction; first by way of deduction of capital expenditure and thereafter, by way of deduction of depreciation on the assets of the trust.
It has been observed that for the purpose of disallowance of expenditure under section 14A of the Income-Tax Act, 1961 (the Act), in respect of income exempt from tax, the Assessing Officers (AOs) have been following a totally erroneous method of straight away applying rule 8D of the Income-Tax Rules, 1962 (the Rules), without considering the correctness of the claim made by the assessee in respect of the expenditure incurred in relation to such income.
