Tribunal has on examination of the agreement dated 30-4-2003 entered into between ‘R’ and the assessee concluded that ‘R’ in terms of the agreement had only a right to use the network during the tenure of the 20 year agreement.

In one of our Pilot Projects it was bought to our notice by the field formations that the e-filed returns were not visible to the concerned assessing officers.The matter was taken up with DGIT (Systems) who has informed that the following information can be accessed on the system by the AO with regard to e-filed returns of his/her jurisdiction (ward/ circle):-
Looked at from the angle of the subscriber, while there may be a certainty as to the dividend received every month for considering the same for assessment on accrual basis, as far as a company running the chit business is concerned, the dividend and the discount can properly be ascertained only at the completion of the transaction and not in the midway.

It is essential that the expenditure incurred on the construction of any structure on the leased premises should result in saving of the revenue expenditure at the subsequent stage. In the present case, from the pleadings of both the sides, it cannot be ascertained whether the assessee is getting enduring benefit of revenue nature from the additional structure or renovation/repairs undertaken by the assessee on the leased out premises. In our considered opinion, the case of the assessee very much falls within the ambit of Explanation 1 of section 32(1) of the Act. Therefore, both the appeals of the assessee are dismissed being devoid of merit.
In our considered opinion. for making any disallowance u/s. 14A is to firstly examine the assessee’s claim of having incurred some expenditure or no expenditure in relation to exempt income. If the AO gets satisfied with the same then there is no need to compute disallowance as per Rule 8D.

As rightly submitted by the learned DR, one of the reasons given by the AO for making disallowance u/s 40(a)(ia) was that the payment of freight charges was made by the assessee on account of air fare and not shipping charges and even the said air fare was not directly paid to the airlines but the same was paid to the different parties who acted as freight booking agents.
The High Court had failed to notice that in view of the express provisions of the Act an assessee was entitled to compensation by way of interest on the delay in the payment of amounts lawfully due to the assessee which were withheld wrongly and contrary to the law by the department for an inordinate long period of up to 17 years.
