TDs deductible on non-refundable ‘upfront charges’ for leased asset

April 30, 2012 9145 Views 0 comment Print

As per the assessee, since it had received a benefit of enduring nature, the outgo was on capital account and it had acquired an asset by making such payment. There cannot be any quarrel on this argument. The assessee had derived an interest in the property since leasehold interest is a valuable right. But, the question here is not whether the outgo was capital or revenue, the question is whether the upfront fee paid will fall within the definition of ‘rent’ as given under Explanation to section 194-I. It is pertinent to note that section 194-I does not make any differentiation between capital outgo and revenue outgo.

CIT(A) can set aside assessment not made in accordance with ITAT’s direction

April 27, 2012 5330 Views 0 comment Print

CIT v. Hindustan Zinc Ltd. Amendment in the clause (a) of section 251(1) has been made so as to provide that the Commissioner (Appeals) may not set aside the assessment and refer the case back to the Assessing Officer for making fresh assessment with a view to help bringing an early finalization of the assessment, it cannot be assumed that the Commissioner (Appeals) is divested of the power to annul the assessment and then to pass appropriate consequential order. In the instant case, the factual aspect has been that the order as passed by the Assessing Officer which was subject of appeal before the Commissioner (Appeals), was not an original order of assessment but was an order of assessment passed after remand by the Tribunal. The directions in remand order having not been complied with, the course as adopted by the Commissioner (Appeals) cannot be said to be de hors the powers available to him under the statute.
