Lower deduction certificate issued in respect of one unit is enough to cover other units of Assessee despite Separate TANs

January 28, 2013 5039 Views 0 comment Print

Assessing Officer of the contractors have furnished certificate under Section 197 of the Act to the Principal Officer of the Parle Biscuits Pvt Ltd, Mumbai. Such certificate is in terms of clause (iii) of Section 204 of the Act. Such certificate mandates the persons to whom such certificate is issued to deduct tax at a rate lower than the prescribed rate under Section 194C of the Act. Merely because the assessee has got separate TAN for Bahadurgarh unit and for Mumbai unit, will not render the certificate issued under Section 197(2) as redundant. Such certificate is to be issued to the Principal Officer of the Company as the person responsible for deduction of tax and not to any other person or unit of the assessee. Therefore, the order passed by the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) Rohtak and affirmed by the Tribunal cannot be said to be suffering from any illegality in any manner.

Incidence of income-tax on house property is on ownership

The assessee is engaged in building activities. It argues that flats are held as part of its inventory of stock-in-trade, and are not let out. The further argument is that unlike in the other instances, where such builders let out flats, here there is no letting out and that deemed income – which is the basis for assessment under the ALV method, should not be attributed. The argument, though attractive cannot be accepted.
