Order passed by DRP without any reference of Assessee’s objection is a non speaking order

October 9, 2012 1177 Views 0 comment Print

On perusal of records, it was found that the assessee has filed detailed objections on selection of two comparables. But the D.R.P. has not made any reference in the impugned order about the objections of the assessee. Thus, the order of the D.R.P. cannot be termed as a speaking order. The said order deserves to be set aside to file of DRP for fresh adjudication.

October 9, 2012 2173 Views 0 comment Print

Facially the provision of section 12AA would suggest that there are no restrictions of the kind which the revenue is reading into in the instant case. In other words, the statute does not prevent or enjoin the Commissioner from registering a trust based only on its objects, without any activity, in the case of a newly registered Trust. The statute does not prescribe a waiting period, for a trust to qualify itself for registration.

A reading of the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of CWT v. Vysyaraju Badreenarayana Morthy Raju [1985] 152 ITR 454 shows that the computation of the net wealth of an assessee calls for a determination of his assets and debts as on the valuation date. Whether the system of accounting, whether mercantile or cash or hybrid, is not relevant for the purpose of determining the assets of the assessee. This is clear from the definition of ‘net wealth’.
