Period of limitation for CIT order u/s 263 for issue, which is not the subject matter of reassessment

June 17, 2011 2700 Views 0 comment Print

Century Textiles & Industries Ltd Vs DCIT, Mumbai -In the instant case, the original order was passed on 22.3.2004 u/s 143(3) of the I T Act and since the reassessment notice was issued for the purpose of adding the arrears of depreciation debited to P&L account and the revaluation reserves credited to P&L account to be reduced while computing book profits and since the order of the CIT relates to non-disallowance of expenditure in respect of exempt income under clause (f) to Explanation(1) of sec 115JB; therefore, in view of the decisions cited above, the period of limitation provided for in 263(2) would commence from the date of original assessment which, in the instant case is 22.3.2004. Since the order of the CIT u/s 263 is dated 30.3.2009, therefore, the same is barred by limitation.

Assessee not entitled to deduction u/s 10A on the foreign exchange fluctuation gain which is derived on external commercial borrowings and not from the export activity of the assessee

June 17, 2011 2684 Views 0 comment Print

Convergys India Services Pvt Ltd Vs DCIT (ITAT Delhi) – In the present case, we note that gain is not on account of fluctuation in foreign exchange relating to assessee’s export activities. The same is with respect to the external commercial borrowings. This cannot be termed as derived from the export activity of the assessee. The assessee’s reliance in this regard on section 10A(4) does not come to its rescue, as the said sub-section only provides the formula for computing profits derived from the export activity. First, the income or gain has to be derived from export activity, only then the computation formula can be applied.

The provisions of section 145 of IT Act cannot override section 5 of the Act; if income has neither actually accrued nor received within the meaning of section 5; whatever section 145 may say, such income cannot be charged to tax even though a book keeping entry may have been made recognizing such hypothetical income.

Chitranjan Jaiswal v CIT and Anr. – The order dated 9th February, 1996 clearly reveals that after initiation of the proceeding under section 147/148 of the Act of 1961, the Assessing Authority at its own has not dropped the proceeding upon satisfaction of his own without the help of the return. Admittedly, there was no regular assessment for the assessee of the year 1992-93 and petitioner was directed as well as required to submit the return in response to the notice under section 147/148 read with section 142 of the Act of 1961 and he duly submitted that return.
