January 11, 2013 4897 Views 0 comment Print

The allowance of any expenditure arising from an international transaction shall also be determined having regard to the ALP. However, in the instant case the assessee has not claimed the expenditure of Rs. 7,42,20,575/- during the impugned assessment year and has itself disallowed the same while computing its taxable income. Therefore, we agree with the submission of the learned counsel for the assessee that the provisions of section 92 are not applicable.

Assessee not allowed to raise same issue again in the guise of rectification before ITAT

January 11, 2013 1098 Views 0 comment Print

On going through the order passed by the Tribunal, it is found that the Tribunal passed the order, after marshalling at the facts considering the submissions made before it and applying its mind to the decisions cited before it. There is no mistake in the order of the Tribunal of the nature as envisaged under section 254(2). Permitting the assessee to raise the same issues over again in the guise of rectification will amount to recalling the appellate order in its entirety and rehearing it afresh, which is not within the scope and ambit of section 254(2).

S. 271D period of Limitation to be reckoned from the date of First show cause notice irrespective of who issued it

January 10, 2013 2777 Views 0 comment Print

In the present case, the first show cause notice for initiation of proceedings was issued by the AO on 25.03.2003 and was served on the assessee on 27.03.2003. Obviously, the later period also expired on 30.09.2003 when six months expired from the end of the month in which the action for imposing the penalty was initiated. The order as passed by the Joint Commissioner of Income Tax for the penalty under Section 271D on 28.05.2004 was clearly hit by the bar of limitation and has rightly been set aside in the orders impugned.

Intention of the Legislature is to regulate the manner of investment of the money left with an assessee-Trust after utilization for charitable purpose. Subscription to chit funds itself will be utilization of the funds of the assessee since right of the assessee is only to prize a chit or participate in a draw of lots. It is not an investment or deposit of a money which is available as surplus with assessee.
