Infrastructure claims paid to franchisees vs. Rent u/s 194I

April 30, 2011 726 Views 0 comment Print

Held that the agreement was in fact a franchisee agreement and it could not be said that the rent was being paid by the assessee company to the licensee franchisee. There was no payment of rent by the assessee company to the licensees/franchisees and hence the provisions of section 194I cannot be made applicable. CIT vs. NIIT Ltd. (184 Taxman 472) (Del.)

Section 194H – Whether difference between commercial price and published price can be classified as commission or not?

April 30, 2011 3107 Views 0 comment Print

CIT v. Qatar Airways (332 ITR 253) – The agents of the assessee (airline) were entitled to sell tickets at any price between the fixed commercial price and the published price. As a result the assessee would have no information regarding the final rates at which tickets were sold. It would be impracticable and unreasonable to accept the assessee to collect feedback from its numerous agents on the prices at which tickets are sold. Thus, it was held that the difference between the commercial price and the published price could neither be considered as commission or brokerage in the hands of the agents and hence was not liable to TDS

Do facilities provided by hotels –fall under the term “carrying out work”

April 30, 2011 1244 Views 0 comment Print

The word “carrying out work” u/s 194C is limited to any work which on being carried out culminates into a product or result (reliance was placed on the decision of the SC in case of Associated Cements). Circular 681 dated 3 March 1994 to the extent it applies to a customer availing the services of a hotel, should be held contrary to section 194C. The word work has to be understood in the limited sense and would extend only to the service contracts specifically included in (the then) Explanation III to section 194C.

Do hire charges with respect to hire equipment automatically call for TDS u/s 194C?

April 30, 2011 2132 Views 0 comment Print

In the absence of any such acceptable material, the conclusion of the AO in treating the hiring of equipment as one falling under the category of sub-contract for provision of labour or the conclusion of the CIT(A) that at least 10% of the total payment would have been incurred by way of labour charges by the respective owners, cannot be accepted. Section 194I came to provide for TDS on respect of machinery/ equipments only with effect from 1.6.2007 and not applicable to his case since it relates to AY 2005-06.

Whether hire of trucks without contract for carriage is covered under Sec 194C?

April 30, 2011 1622 Views 0 comment Print

There is no material on record brought by the AO to prove that there was any written or oral agreement between the assessee and the transporter for carriage of goods. There is no material to establish that any payment exceeded the prescribed limits during the financial year. As per the decision of the HC in case of United Rice Mill Ltd (322 ITR 594) laid down that Section 194C cannot be invoked to hold the assessee liable for deduction of tax only on the assumption that assessee was having agreement with the parties through whom transportation of goods was carried out.

DHL Express (India) Pvt Ltd vs. ACIT (ITAT Mumbai) The assessee’s argument that comparables with a turnover less than 20% of the assessee’s turnover should be considered is not acceptable because it is a universal fact that there are lot of differences between large businesses and small businesses operating in the same field.

Despite Large Volume of Shares Gain is STCG under Consistency Law

April 30, 2011 1658 Views 0 comment Print

Shantilal M. Jain vs. ACIT (ITAT Mumbai)-Though it is the case of the revenue that due to volume, magnitude, frequency, continuity, regularity, the ratio between purchase and sale clearly indicate that income on account of purchase and sale of shares should be treated as income from business and not as income from STCG, the AO has, from AY 2003-04 to 2008-09 (except for the impugned year 2006-07), consistently accepted the income as being STCG. In these circumstances, the Rule of consistency as propounded by the Bombay High Court in Gopal Purohit 228 CTR 582 (Bom) is squarely applicable and the income has to be treated as STCG.
