In the instant case, the assessee was not under an obligation to carry out the work as it was not under the control of the lender and the possession of the machinery temporarily was passed to the assessee after entering into agreement with the lender. Therefore, in the present case, taking of the machinery and equipment on hire would not amount to a contract for carrying out any work as contemplated in s. 194C of the Act.
In view of decision of the ITAT in assessee’s own case for earlier year, respectfully following the same, it was held that interest income earned during the year by assessee, from the fixed deposits made out of borrowed funds was rightly taxed by Assessing Officer under the head ‘income from other sources’. The ITAT in their decision for the earlier year, had found that the interest payable on borrowed funds had no connection with the receipt of interest. Following the decision of the coordinate bench, it was to be held that the interest payable on the loans out which the fixed deposits were made was not allowable as deduction under section 57 (iii).
When a person has a dual capacity, as an individual as well as karta of HUF, and notice under section 148 is intended to be addressed to HUF, it is necessary to specifically mention that notice was/is being addressed to him in his capacity as karta of HUF.
Vide clause 8 Notification No. 3/2013, dated 15-1-2013 CBDT has specified that Assessee can file an appeal against the actions of the CPC. The appeal can be filed with the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) having jurisdiction over the Assessing Officer who has jurisdiction over the deductor.
Vide clause 7 of the Notification No. 3/2013, dated 15-1-201 CBDT has specified that an adjustment of refunds against outstanding tax demand can be done u/s 245 of the Act only after issuing prior intimation to the taxpayer.
We find that respondent-assessee is receiving royalty and fees for technical services rendered in India. In terms of Article 12 of DTAA, royalty and fees for technical services received in India by a person resident outside India are not liable to tax in India in excess of 10% of the gross amount received. On examination of the DTAA, we find that in terms of Article 2(3) thereof the trade tax paid in Germany is one of the taxes to which DTAA applies.
As far as the sale and lease transactions pertaining to BPL Systems and Products Limited is concerned, the Assessing Officer observed that there were discrepancy in the lease rentals paid by lessee and admitted by the assessee in its profits and loss account, which were not reconciled by the assessee. In the circumstances, the Assessing Officer disallowed the claim of depreciation.
Under section 12AA of the Act, the Commissioner has to satisfy himself about the objectives of the trust and the genuineness of its activities. For such purpose, he has the power to call for such documents or information from the trust as he think are necessary.
Section 54 and 54F apply under different situations. While sec. 54 applies to long term capital gain arising out of transfer of long term capital asset being a residential house, sec. 54F applies to long term capital gain arising out of transfer of any long term capital asset other than a residential house. However the condition for availing exemption under both the sections is purchase or construction of a new residential house within the stipulated period.
It would be relevant to mention here that the trust was formed on 11-1-2012, the application for registration under section 12AA was submitted by the appellant on 27-3-2012, i.e., within a period of three months of its creation. The school activities started in June, 2012. The appellant submitted its books of account up to September, 2012 before the Commissioner. The Commissioner, after examining the statement of accounts, for such a short period formed its opinion that the activities of trust were not charitable in nature. The Commissioner did not raise any objection on the objects of the trust. It was premature for the Commissioner to judge the activities of the trust by just glancing through the statement of accounts of the trust of such a short period.
