No charity in providing assistance to entrepreneurs for fees in setting up industries

March 21, 2013 903 Views 0 comment Print

In the instant case, the assessee although an extended arm of State Government formed as a society to carry out charitable activities in the nature of ‘general public utility’ is in fact providing assistance to industrial houses and entrepreneurs for setting up of industry in the State of Tamil Nadu. The assessee facilitates in providing licence, approval and permission from various Government agencies for setting up of industry in the State, for which it is charging fee. The fee charged by the assessee is not remitted to the Government treasury or exchequer. After insertion of proviso to section 2(15) of the Act, the assessee has lost its character of charitable organization. The assessee is a service provider.

S. 35(2AB) Allowability of Expenditure on clinical drug trial incurred outside

March 20, 2013 2879 Views 0 comment Print

Before a pharmaceutical drug could be put in the market, the regulatory authorities would insist on strict tests and research on all possible aspects, such as possible reactions, effect of the drug and so on. Extensive clinical trials, therefore, would be an intrinsic part of development of any such new pharmaceutical drug. It cannot be imagined that such clinical trial can be carried out only in the laboratory of the pharmaceutical company.

Deduction U/s. 80HHE available on Income from Technical services provided outside India for development of computer software

March 20, 2013 4165 Views 0 comment Print

When the specific provision under Section 80HHE is concerned about technical services rendered in connection with software development, we do not approve of the line of reasoning of the Tribunal. One cannot read any such choice available to the assessee for claiming deduction either under Section 80-O or under Section 80HHE of the Income Tax Act. In the face of the finding of the Officer as to the nature of technical services rendered as in connection with the development of production of computer software as spoken to by the company’s Director, we do not find any good ground to accept the assessee’s plea. In view of the above, the order of the Tribunal stands set aside and these appeals, filed by the revenue, stand allowed. There will be no order as to costs.

Application u/s. 154 for rectification of order passed by CIT U/s. 264 is maintainable

March 20, 2013 3478 Views 0 comment Print

In the present case, the revisional authority had passed an order in revision on December 6, 2010. The application for rectification was not made before the Assessing Officer who passed the assessment order which was the subject-matter of revision but the application was made before the revisional authority itself for rectification. Such an application was maintainable and was not barred by section 154(1A). In these circumstances, we are of the view that the Commissioner of Income-tax has erred in declining to entertain the application for rectification.
