No Exemption u/s.10(23C) to educational institute if It earns huge profits

November 8, 2012 5924 Views 0 comment Print

The language used in section 10(23C)(iiiad)speaks about existence of solely for educational purposes and not for the purposes of profit if the annual receipts do not exceed the prescribed limit. However, if the aforesaid chart/income is analysed, we find that a huge abnormal profit has been created/earned by the assessee and the amounts are definitely beyond the prescribed limit.

‘In personam’ rights such as non-compete fees cannot be treated as depreciable intangible assets

November 8, 2012 1233 Views 0 comment Print

However, in the case of a non-competition agreement or covenant, the advantage is a restricted one, in point of time. It does not necessarily – and not in the facts of this case, confer any exclusive right to carry-on the primary business activity.

Reimbursement of expense cannot be treated as loan or deposit to attract Section 269SS or 269T

November 8, 2012 5049 Views 0 comment Print

In the present case, both, the Commissioner (Appeals) as well as the Tribunal have found that the transactions in question are neither in the nature of loans or deposits. Under the circumstances, the provisions of sections 269SS and 269T of the Act would not be applicable. Consequently, the question of contravention of such provisions attracting penalty under sections 271D and 271E of the Act would also not arise. Under the circumstances, no infirmity can be found in the impugned order of the Tribunal so as to give rise to a question of law, much less, a substantial question of law so as to warrant interference.

Mere possession of valuable items not sufficient to form a belief that same not been or would not be disclosed

November 7, 2012 1964 Views 0 comment Print

Mere possession of money, bullion, jewelery or such valuable article or thing per-se would not be sufficient to enable the competent officer to form a belief that the same had not been or would not be disclosed for the purpose of the Act. What is required is some concrete material to enable a reasonable person to form such a belief.

HC penalises CIT & ACIT for seeking to circumvent the law & deplorable conduct

November 7, 2012 687 Views 0 comment Print

Conduct of ACIT­10(1) Mumbai as well as CIT­10 Mumbai is highly deplorable. Once the jurisdiction to assess the petitioner was transferred by the CIT­10 Mumbai from ACIT­10(1) Mumbai to DCIT Circle­1(2) Pune by order dated 22.11.2011 it was totally improper on the part of ACIT­10(1) Mumbai to request the CIT¬10, Mumbai to pass a corrigendum order with a view to circumvent the jurisdictional issue.

Non-consideration of judgment of jurisdictional High Court is a mistake

November 7, 2012 2344 Views 0 comment Print

No doubt in a normal situation, so far as matters capable of two views being taken will be outside the ambit of section 154. However, right now, we are dealing with interpretation of section 10(10C) and so far as this interpretation is concerned, law laid down by Hon’ble Calcutta High Court is that an interpretation in favour of the assessee is to be adopted.

Addition justified if Income as Per Return in less than income as per TDS Certificates

November 7, 2012 1271 Views 0 comment Print

Appellant had sought higher deduction of tax at source by annexing TDS certificates and not reflecting the income as shown in the TDS certificates in its return of income. The Tribunal on consideration of all facts had come to the conclusion that remanding the matter to the Assessing Officer would not serve any purpose, as the appellant had consciously claimed credit of tax deduction on the basis of the TDS certificates and even enclosed the same along with the return of income, but failed to show it, as a part of the income.

Jurisdiction u/s. 263 cannot be invoked if Order is erroneous but not prejudicial to interest of revenue

November 7, 2012 1159 Views 0 comment Print

Though the order of the AO was erroneous, the same was not prejudicial to the interest of the revenue as no part of the capital gain became taxable because of loss of exemption u/s.11(1A) of the Act. Since the order sought to be revised u/s.263 of the Act was erroneous but not prejudicial to the interest of the revenue, jurisdiction u/s.263 could not have been invoked by the CIT. We hold accordingly and quash the order u/s.263 of the Act. The appeal of the Assessee is allowed with the above directions and computation.

Addition u/s 68 for no effort by Dept. to verify identity & creditworthiness of creditors not justified

November 7, 2012 1932 Views 0 comment Print

AO and the CIT(A) did not make any effort to verify the confirmations, identity and creditworthiness of the creditors in question and they also ignored the fact that the transaction of cash credits received and its repayment were made through bank and we also hold that the authorities below did not bring any incriminating material or evidence against the assessee trust to establish that the amount shown in the balance sheet as cash credits amounting to Rs.1,70,000 actually belonged or was owned by the assessee trust itself.

Employee & Employer’s contribution to PF /ESI fund allowable if Paid before Due Date of ROI

We are dealing with cases where though the amount was not deposited by the due date under the Welfare Acts, it was definitely deposited before furnishing the returns. We see no reason to make any distinction between the employees’ contribution or the employers’ contribution.
