December 3, 2012 1316 Views 0 comment Print

Amalgamation does not come within the scope of ‘transfer’ as defined in Section 2(47) of the Act and such being the view taken not only by this court, but Madras High Court and also the Supreme Court, there is no question of holding that the assessee disentitles the benefit of Section 80-I of the Act.

TP – ALP needs to be seen only with regard to transaction with AEs

December 1, 2012 1269 Views 0 comment Print

The profit margin from the international transaction with the A.E. has to be seen in relation to the uncontrolled transaction with the independent parties. What is to be compared is the international transactions of the assessee with its related parties and not for its entire transaction with non-related parties also. Therefore, ALP has to be seen only with regard to international transaction with A.Es and not on the entire turnover/sales.

TP – Super profit companies cannot be considered as comparable

December 1, 2012 954 Views 0 comment Print

Working given by the TPO shows that it is earning 7% commission, whereas as per the industry policy as decided by the AAAI the service on media agency earns commission of 2.5%. On that reason also, since it is an extreme case of earning 7% commission (in our view it is wrongly considered), on the principles that the extreme profit companies are to be excluded, this company cannot be considered as comparable for the purpose of arriving at the average mean.

No addition for difference in cash Balance on mere assumptions

November 30, 2012 2898 Views 0 comment Print

Where there was difference of amount in question somewhere as per cash in hand as per books of account and lesser cash as per seized documents, it would also not suffice to make addition under section 68 or 69A because every person is at liberty to spend their own amount anywhere as per his choice and assessee had not claimed any deduction in this case. Examining the case of assessee from every possible angle, addition of Rs.37,30,710/- was wholly unjustified.
