The Finance Ministry has decided to arm its tax authorities with exhaustive financial and personal data of Indian residents who use the exemption clauses under the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) and escape paying taxes in one of the countries.

Although the revised draft Direct Taxes Code (DTC) has suggested the continuation of profit-linked incentives for existing SEZ units and developers, they are likely to come under the ambit of Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT). The revised draft of DTC has recommended the rate of MAT at 2 per cent of the value of gross assets as the final tax. The provision, if adopted, would negate the very objective of the SEZ policy, as the developers and units would then end up paying MAT, based on their book profits, which will be a final tax.

Cooperative sugar mills in Maharashtra have appealed to the Union finance ministry to stop the insistence on tax deduction at source on the income of cane harvesting and transport contractors. The Federation of Cooperative Sugar Mills in Maharashtra says the income tax authorities refuse to recognise that these labour contractors don’t even have PAN cards and were earlier exempted from the tax deduction at source (TDS) rule. It has asked the ministry to intervene and get a ‘No TDS’ certificate to these people.
In a significant ruling, the Supreme Court has ruled that taxpayers can legally reduce their liability through dividend-stripping, a term used for selling mutual fund units at a discount post-dividend. An apex court bench headed by Chief Justice SH Kapadia has said there is nothing wrong in dividend-stripping after getting the tax benefits. The bench further said such dividend stripping after availing of the tax rebates cannot be termed as abuse of law.
