A low rate of gross profit, in absence of any material pointing towards falsehood of accounts books, cannot by itself be a ground to reject account books under section 145(3)

February 25, 2011 9842 Views 2 comments Print

If the rate of gross profit declared by the assessee in a particular period is lower as compared to the gross profit declared by him in the preceding year, that may alert the Assessing Officer and serve as a warning to him, to look into the accounts more carefully and to look for some material which could lead to the conclusion that the accounts maintained by the assessee were not correct.

Special Auditor, to whom work is assigned, is very much at liberty, to insist upon payment of such fee/remuneration as he may deem adequate for work assigned to him

February 25, 2011 9547 Views 0 comment Print

If the remuneration demanded by the person proposed to be appointed as Special Auditor is not acceptable to the Chief Commissioner or the Commissioner, as the case may be, he may not assign the work to him; but, it would be difficult to accept that the special audit can be assigned to a person without fixing either the remuneration or the norms on which the remuneration is to be calculated after the work is completed and conveying the same to him.

Penalty attracted If claim made by assessee besides being incorrect in law and malafide

February 25, 2011 6678 Views 0 comment Print

If the assessee makes a claim which is not only incorrect in law but is also wholly without any basis and the explanation furnished by him for making such a claim is not found to be bona fide, it would be difficult to say that he would still not be liable to penalty under section 271(1)(c).

Rectification of computational error- A simple computational error can be resolved by rectifying an order of assessment under Section 154(1)

February 25, 2011 9102 Views 0 comment Print

It would be entirely arbitrary for the Assessing Officer to reopen the entire assessment under Section 147 to rectify an error or mistake which can be rectified under Section 154; an arbitrary exercise of power is certainly not a consequence which Parliament contemplates.

February 25, 2011 8794 Views 0 comment Print

It was held that if technical services provided off-shore do not require any deduction of tax at source. In the . instant case, the services have been rendered off-shore though these are utilized in India and as per the; decision of the jurisdictional High Court, no TD5 was required to be made. It is true that through e-commerce, the services can be rendered in India without any geographical boundary but no facts have been put before us to establish that Sun Singapore provided such services in India When the income of the recipients not taxable in India then the appellant was not required to deduct tax at source. Hence, it is held that the appellant was not required to deduct tax at source u/s 195 of the IT Act.

February 25, 2011 9790 Views 0 comment Print

In order to apply the provisions of section 271(1)(c), there has to be concealment of particulars of the income of the assessee; the assessee must have furnished inaccurate particulars of his income.

Section 127 mandates that assessee must be given a reasonable opportunity of being heard while exercising power to transfer cases

February 25, 2011 9705 Views 0 comment Print

Where the assessee was not provided with any opportunity of being heard in the matter, the reasons assigned in the order which was “administrative convenience and for co-ordinating effective investigation” also could not be said to be the reasons as envisaged in Section 127(1).

There is no provision in section 148(1) stating that after objection is received, a detailed order of rejection has to be passed before passing final order of reassessment

February 25, 2011 2140 Views 0 comment Print

Even if there is any lacuna in the procedure followed by the Assessing Authority while rejecting the objections raised by the assessee against the notices issued under sections 147 and 148(1), it is not as if the assessee is left in lurch and deprived of its right from raising such issue, and it is open to the assessee to challenge the same, even at the time of questioning the final assessment orders.
