Capital Gain from shares cannot be treated unexplained if sale of shares not proved bogus

March 15, 2013 3274 Views 1 comment Print

It had held that the assess was in possession of the shares in question and had sold the said shares in course of ordinary transaction of sale of shares at stock exchange and if the broker did not file any evidence since the same were seized by the Revenue Department, there is no fault with the assessee. From the aforesaid facts it is clear that the shares in question were allotted to the assessee in the public issue which were held in demat a/c of Stock Holding Corporation of India Ltd. The shares were transferred to Abhipra Capital Ltd. The sale consideration was received by demand draft. Therefore, the transaction in question cannot be said to be fake and is a genuine transaction.

ITAT upheld addition for stock difference as per books and in Statement submitted to Banks

Assessee despite being given more than sufficient opportunity has not been able to explain the discrepancy in stock. No new document or evidence has been brought to the notice of the Bench, nor has the assessee been able to show how the document has been wrongly considered. As such neither on facts nor on law the assessee’s explanation is acceptable,

Cash deposit directly into the account of the creditor do not absolve Assessee from clutches of S. 40(A)(3)

March 15, 2013 6553 Views 0 comment Print

As far as the present case is concerned, none of the circumstances were narrated by the assessee either before the Assessing Officer or before the Appellate Authority concerned in support of the contention that the claim for allowance should not be disallowed. The mere circumstance, that the amount had been remitted to the account of the payee, would not be a good ground to accept the case of the assessee that Section 40A(3) of the Act will not applied to the case.

If there is no failure on the part of assessee to disclose income, there was no escapement of income

In the reopened assessment, the AO has taken the view that the amount in fact did not represent any capital gains on sale of shares, but represented the undisclosed income of the assessee brought in by means of an accommodation entry given by My Money Security Pvt. Ltd. Accordingly he brought the amount to tax with the narration undisclosed income introduced under guise of short term capital gains.

S. 245D Settlement Commission can decide application on the basis of a summary inquiry

When the Settlement Commission examines an application in terms of statutory powers and finds that such application does not satisfy the legal requirements, as contained in section 245C(1) of the Act, in our view, unless such decision of the Commission is contrary to the statutory provisions contained in the Act, interference in exercise of writ jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India would not be warranted.

Deduction u/s. 80-IA(8) has nothing to do with fixing of tariff rate for supply of power to consumer

We find that both the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) as well as the Tribunal have arrived at a finding of fact that Assessing officer did not have any reasonable belief to come to the conclusion that that there has been any escapement for the assessment year 2003-04. The order of MERC dated 01.07.2004 specifically deals with regard to fixing of the tariff rate at which power has to be supplied to the consumer.

Retrospective amendment in clarificatory nature to existing tax incentive provision is not unconstitutional

March 14, 2013 8811 Views 0 comment Print

The case of the petitioners is that the impugned explanation below sub-section (13) to section 80IA provides for a levy of tax which was hitherto unknown. It is, therefore, urged that the Court should examine the reasonableness of such provision particularly when the same is brought into operation with retrospective effect. Section 80IA(4) provides for deduction under certain circumstances. If such deductions are withdrawn with retrospective effect, surely there would be a case of providing for a levy which was till then not known.
