Co-Operative Society – Taxation – A.Y. 2012-13

April 9, 2012 24303 Views 0 comment Print

Filing of return & due date & PAN/ TAN – Since there is no threshold limit for taxability of income in case of a co-operative society, it implies that if a society has any taxable income, it has to file a return of income . Since accounts of all co-operative societies are subject to statutory audit provisions under respective governing laws, therefore due date for filing return of income under the Income-tax Act, 1961 is September 30.

Software Customisation is ‘production’ of computer program and entitled for S. 10B benefits

April 8, 2012 483 Views 0 comment Print

The term ‘computer programme’ had not been defined under Section 10B of the Act, however, it had been defined under Section 10BB of the Act as ‘computer programme’ or ‘process’ or ‘management of electronic data’. After the amendment with effect from 1 April 2001, the definition of computer software had been given in the Explanation 2 to Section 10B of the Act which includes any customised electronic data or any product or services of similar nature as notified by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) which is transmitted or exported from India to any place outside by any means. Therefore, the human resource service in the field of development of software programme as notified falls under the definition of computer programme as stipulated in the Explanation as well as the definition under Section 10BB of the Act.

Discount on debentures issued for construction of house property allowable

April 8, 2012 1033 Views 0 comment Print

ITAT held that the proportionate discount on deep discount debentures issued for construction of house property is in the nature of interest as defined under Section 2(28A) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (the Act). Therefore, such interest would be allowable as deduction under the provisions of Section 24(b) of the Act while computing income from house property. The Tribunal relying on the Supreme Court’s decision in the case of Madras Industrial Finance Corpn Ltd v. CIT [1997] 225 ITR 802 (SC) observed that the difference between the issue price and maturity value has to be spread over the debenture holding period. Accordingly, proportionate deduction should be allowed in computing income from house property.

Refusal To Give 30 Days For Tax Payment Is High-handed & Unlawful – HC

April 7, 2012 660 Views 0 comment Print

In the present case, as noted earlier, a provisional attachment has already been levied on 7 October 2011 under Section 281B by which the amount which was invested by the Assessee in mutual funds of SBI Mutual Funds was attached. The attachment was to the extent of Rs.36.54 Crores. That being the position evidently there would have been no basis for forming a reason to believe that if the period of 30 days was to be observed under Section 220(1), that would be detrimental to the Revenue.

S.14A does not apply to shares held as stock-in-trade

April 7, 2012 2736 Views 0 comment Print

HC held that When no expenditure is incurred by the assessee in earning dividend income, notional expenditure cannot be disallowed u/s 14A. The assessee had not retained shares with the intention of earning dividend. The dividend income was incidental to the business of sale of shares, which remained unsold by the assessee. It cannot be said that the expenditure incurred in acquiring the shares had to be apportioned to the extent of dividend income and that should be a disallowance u/s 14A.
