November 2, 2012 2623 Views 0 comment Print

Carbon credit is not an offshoot of business but an offshoot of environmental concerns. No asset is generated in the course of business but it is generated due to environmental concerns. Credit for reducing carbon emission or greenhouse effect can be transferred to another party in need of reduction of carbon emission. It does not increase profit in any manner and does not need any expenses. It is a nature of entitlement to reduce carbon emission, however, there is no cost of acquisition or cost of production to get this entitlement. Carbon credit is not in the nature of profit or in the nature of income.

In the case before us also, technical services were rendered by Toyo through the medium of the said technicians. It is not the assessee’s case that the technicians were not answerable to Toyo.
