Increase in tax liability would correspondingly reduce the amount refundable & also interest payable on such reduced refund

April 18, 2012 2472 Views 0 comment Print

he charging of interest is compensatory in nature. If a tax demand raised by the Assessing Officer is varied by an appellate or revisionary authority, it is the appellate and revisional order and not the assessment order, that would hold the field under the doctrine of merger and, hence, fresh notice of demand is to be issued accordingly. An increase in tax liability would correspondingly reduce the amount refundable and also the interest payable on such reduced refund. Provisions of section 244A(3) clearly cover such a situation. If the contention of the assessee is accepted, it would lead to irrational and absurd consequences, which would make the provisions of section 244A(3) inoperative and redundant. The Assessing Officer merely gave effect to these relevant and clear provisions of the Act.

Whether assessee could book its expenses on accrual basis & receipts on actual receipt basis

April 17, 2012 1189 Views 0 comment Print

The assessee has followed mercantile system of accountancy in regard to the expenditure incurred during that year and results were declared on actual receipt and this method is constantly followed by the assessee since last so many years, therefore, addition of the amount received in the next year in the month of April should not have been added in the previous year merely on the basis of bills issued and expenditure shown in the assessment year.

No penalty in absence of finding that return filed is incorrect or erroneous or false

April 17, 2012 1166 Views 0 comment Print

Where no information given in the return is found to be incorrect or inaccurate, the assessee cannot be held guilty of furnishing inaccurate particulars. In order to expose the assessee to penalty, unless the case is strictly covered by the provision, the penalty provision cannot be invoked. By no stretch of imagination can making an incorrect claim tantamount to furnishing inaccurate particulars. There can be no dispute that everything would depend upon the return filed by the assessee, because that is the only document where the assessee can furnish the particulars of his income. When such particulars are found to be inaccurate, the liability would arise. To attract penalty, the details supplied in the return must not be accurate, not exact or correct, not according to the truth or erroneous.

Usance interest paid under letter of credit liable for TDS

April 17, 2012 22243 Views 0 comment Print

Briefly stated facts of the case are that the assessee paid a sum of Rs.9,54,684/- to a foreign bank without deduction of tax at source. In the audit report, it was mentioned that it was a usance interest paid under the letter of credit and hence not liable for any deduction of tax at source. In support of its case, the assessee relied on the order passed by the Tribunal in the case of Vijay Ship Breaking Corporation vs. DCIT (2002) 76 TTJ 169 (Rajkot) by contending that the interest paid to bank related to the purchases and hence should be considered as part of purchase price.

It is not in public interest to accept such a claim when there is no evidence of rendering any service by Blue Chip & Co to the assessee. The sole object of diverting funds to Blue Chip & Co was to facilitate passing of funds as interest free loan to Vijay Mallya and Samira Mallya.

Despite Offering Income In S. 148 ROI, S. 271(1)(c) Penalty Leviable

April 17, 2012 1330 Views 0 comment Print

The Return of Income filed pursuant to a notice notice U/s. 148 is not ‘voluntary’ & it can be readily inferred that the assessee had not furnished full particulars of his true income and so reopening became necessary. The explanation that the income was offered to buy peace is not acceptable because it is a clear case of admission of not offering true income earlier.
