S. 80HHC – Deduction on DEPB to be computed as per SC ruling in Topman Exports

May 11, 2012 2111 Views 0 comment Print

Assessee submitted that the issue may be restored to the file of the Assessing Officer with a direction to decide the same afresh in accordance with law following the ratio laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Topman Exports (supra) and compute the deduction u/s 80HHC on DEPB/DFRC licenses in this case as per judgment of the Hon’ble Supreme Court referred to above. We find substance in the above submissions of Shri Sudhir Sehgal and, therefore, we set aside the order of CIT(A) and remand the issue to Assessing Officer with a direction to decide the same afresh keeping in view the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Topman Exports (supra). The Assessing Officer should give an opportunity of being heard to the assessee. For statistical purposes, the appeal is allowed.

May 10, 2012 1953 Views 0 comment Print

The assessee borrowed money and instead of financing in rural areas invested the same in the company ‘J,’ where the founders of the assessee-trust are having substantial interest, which is contrary to the object of which the registration was granted to the assessee under section 12AA.

Depreciation not claimed cannot be allowed in rectification U/s. 154

May 9, 2012 2533 Views 0 comment Print

In the instant case, the questions as to whether the assessee was entitled to get the current year depreciation even if it had not been claimed; or as to whether amendment to section 32 in year 2002-03 had a prospective effect or a retrospective effect on the application of current year’s depreciation and unabsorbed business losses and depreciation for the purpose of computation of Income tax, had been the disputable issues and had been of such questions of law which required further deliberation and discussion. Such aspects did not fall in the category of mistake apparent from the record and, therefore, could not have been dealt with under section 154.

Rule 46A – To render justice CIT appeal can admit new evidence

May 9, 2012 20430 Views 0 comment Print

In the instant case, the assessee has already filed requisite details before the Assessing Officer and further detail was to be filed before the Assessing Officer and the latter refused to accept the same. Therefore, the assessee was compelled to file details by way of speed post. Further, new evidence filed by the assessee is from the Government agency and the same is essential for disposal of the appeal. The Commissioner (Appeals) has considered the new evidence and the facts and circumstances of the case in entirety and after recording reasons admitted the new evidences. Therefore, there was no infirmity in the admission of the new evidence by the Commissioner (Appeals), as the interest of the quasi-judicial proceedings is to render justice and not to deny justice by declining to admit new evidence. The circumstances of the case duly justify admission of the new evidence by the Commissioner (Appeals).
