In the instant case, the admitted facts were that the objects of the assessee society were for welfare of resident of the colony and other maintenance services of the colony. Section 12AA requires that the Commissioner(Appeals) is to satisfy himself about the objects of the society and genuineness of the activities. Whether the object of the society was charitable or not was to be examined. Section 2(15) provides the definition of charitable purposes.
It is an admitted position that the air freight is paid to the agents on the actual basis and that the bills and air freight documents have been directly issued by the foreign airlines. The agents, while accepting payments for air freight components, have acted merely as agents of the respective airlines and have not received the air freight payments in their own right. In copies of airway bills, the name of these agents is shown as ‘Issuing carrier’s agent, further the agent’s code is given as ‘Agent’s IATA code’. There is thus enough material to demonstrate that the persons having received money for the air freight have received the same in their capacity as ‘issuing carrier’s agent’, i.e., agent of the airline concerned. The air freight payment is thus made to the foreign airlines, though through the agents. Therefore, the payments cannot be said to have been made to a resident company. Accordingly, the provisions of section 194C do not come into play.
DDIT V. Satellite Television Asian Region Ltd. It is an admitted fact that the assessee is a non-resident company having its principal place of business at Honkong and the various Channel Companies are also non-resident companies based in Honkong. Hence, the payment in question is made by a non-resident company to a non-resident company. In the return of income, while computing the taxable income, the assessee has shown his taxable income and also claimed deduction of the cost of advertising airtime procured from the Channel Companies on principal-to-principal basis outside India.
Here, we are concerned with the meaning of term fees for technical services as given in para 4 of Article 12. The FTS has been defined as the payment of any amount in consideration of service for ‘managerial’ or technical’ or ‘consultancy in nature, which is quite similar to definition given in Explanation 2 to Section 9(1)(vii). Looking to the nature of services provided by the assessee as has been described above, it is amply evident that it is mostly in the nature of ‘audit work’ wherein the auditors of the assessee visit the sites of the client’s and evaluate the clients quality system as prescribed in International Standard for ISO 9001/2, ISO 14001, QS 9000 etc.
The Prime Minister has approved the constitution of an Expert Committee on GAAR to undertake stakeholder consultations and finalise the guidelines for GAAR. This committee would manage the consultation process and finalise the draft GAAR Guidelines. 2. While postponing GAAR by one year to 2013 was a very welcome move, a widespread consultative process is necessary to generate a discussion on GAAR provisions so that there is an informed debate on how GAAR is going to operate. Some steps have been taken in this direction:

The other factor which governs the happening of transfer is the handing over of possession. This section says “and the transferee has, in part performance of the contract, taken possession of the property or any part thereof, or the transferee, being already in possession continues in possession in part performance of the contract and has done some act in furtherance of the contract”. Retention of possession is open of the facet of part performance of contract. The agreement in question can be said to be a distinct transaction that has given rise to the event of allowing the contractor to enter into the property.
Provisions of section 12AA, which were inserted w.e.f. 01.04.1997 provides for procedure to be followed for registration under section 12AA. The provisions of section 12AA provides that the CIT shall pass an order in writing either granting or refusing to grant registration under section 12AA, whereas no such specific requirement of passing an order in writing is provided under the provisions of section 12A. Provisions of sub-section 3 of section 12AA provides that registration granted to the trust/institution either under section 12AA after 01.04.1997 or registration granted under section 12A prior to 01.04.1997 shall be cancelled by the CIT by passing an order in writing if the Commissioner is satisfied that the activities of such trust or institutions are not genuine or are not being carried out in accordance with the objects of the trust or institution.
ITO V. Shakti Insulated Wires (P.) Ltd. We are of the opinion that the Assessing Officer has wrongly considered the facts available on record and without understanding the details of purchases and its availability in closing stock, made the disallowance on flimsy grounds. Therefore, we uphold the order of the Ld CIT (A).
ACIT v. Deepak S. Bheda The Assessing Officer denied the benefit claimed by the assessee under section 54 EC towards the investment made in REC bonds for a sum of Rs. 50 lakh out of total long-term capital gain of Rs. 3.40 crores. The Assessing Officer was of the view that once the exemption has been claimed under section 54F and the entire capital gain has not been utilised for the purchase of residential house, then the net consideration which is not appropriated by the assessee towards the purchase of new asset and also not deposited in the banks or institution as specified and notified in the official Gazette by the Central Government as per the provisions of sub section (4) of section 54F, the assessee cannot avail the exemption under section 54 EC.
