No deemed dividend on loan given to director for providing collateral & giving personal guarantee to bank

June 28, 2012 2988 Views 0 comment Print

By virtue of offering personal guarantee and collateral security for the benefit of the company, the liquidity position of the assessee had gone down. In the strict sense if it is to be construed the amount forwarded by the company to the assessee was not in the shape of advances or loans. The arrangement between the assessee and the company was merely for the sake of convenience arising out of business expediency. In the facts and circumstances of the case, it is not appropriate to hold that the amount withdrawn by the assessee partakes the character of deemed dividend under the provisions of section 2(22)(e).

If DTAA caps tax rate, education cess is not payable by foreign assessee

June 28, 2012 10175 Views 0 comment Print

DIC Asia Pacific Pte Ltd vs. ADIT Article 2(1) of the applicable tax treaty provides that the taxes covered shall include tax and surcharge thereon. Once we come to the conclusion that education cess is nothing but an additional surcharge, it is only corollary thereto that the education cess will also be covered by the scope of Article 2. Accordingly, the provisions of Article 11 and 12 must find precedence over the provisions of the Income Tax Act and restrict the taxability, whether in respect of income tax or surcharge or additional surcharge – whatever name called, at the rates specified in the respective article.

Only Top-level Managerial Persons Exempt from Tax under DTAA with Poland

June 28, 2012 742 Views 0 comment Print

It is a fact that the assessee was employed as ‘Service Provider’ and during the period under dispute he was providing the service from Bangalore in India. As per the Co¬operation agreement dated 14.12.2004 entered into between the assessee and the Polish Company, the function of the assessee was ‘to support establishing and preparing organization of the company’s representative office in India by the date of 31st May 2005’. We are of the view that the function to support establishing and preparing organization can at best be termed as a management function but cannot be equated with ‘Top Level Managerial Position’.

Depreciation allowable on Goodwill

June 28, 2012 2773 Views 0 comment Print

Delhi High Court has upheld that ‘payment on account of goodwill is similar to assets like patents, copyrights, trademarks, licences referred to in the definition of the block of assets in the senses that the function of all these assets is to restrict their misuse and to earn maximum profits in the business. The function of goodwill acquired by the assessee also is the same in view of the fact that it maximizes the profits of the company. Since the function of intangibles defined in the Act and the intangible acquired by the assessee is the same, the assets are similar. Therefore, the assessee’s goodwill being a valuable commercial asset similar to other intangibles specified in the definition of block of assets is eligble to depreciation’.

Whether the income derived from such transaction would be assessed for tax and also whether the trust would be entitled to exemption under section 11 are entirely the matters left to the assessing officer to decide as to whether it should be assessed or exempted.
