Depreciation not claimed cannot be allowed in rectification U/s. 154

May 9, 2012 2959 Views 0 comment Print

In the instant case, the questions as to whether the assessee was entitled to get the current year depreciation even if it had not been claimed; or as to whether amendment to section 32 in year 2002-03 had a prospective effect or a retrospective effect on the application of current year’s depreciation and unabsorbed business losses and depreciation for the purpose of computation of Income tax, had been the disputable issues and had been of such questions of law which required further deliberation and discussion. Such aspects did not fall in the category of mistake apparent from the record and, therefore, could not have been dealt with under section 154.

Rule 46A – To render justice CIT appeal can admit new evidence

May 9, 2012 20628 Views 0 comment Print

In the instant case, the assessee has already filed requisite details before the Assessing Officer and further detail was to be filed before the Assessing Officer and the latter refused to accept the same. Therefore, the assessee was compelled to file details by way of speed post. Further, new evidence filed by the assessee is from the Government agency and the same is essential for disposal of the appeal. The Commissioner (Appeals) has considered the new evidence and the facts and circumstances of the case in entirety and after recording reasons admitted the new evidences. Therefore, there was no infirmity in the admission of the new evidence by the Commissioner (Appeals), as the interest of the quasi-judicial proceedings is to render justice and not to deny justice by declining to admit new evidence. The circumstances of the case duly justify admission of the new evidence by the Commissioner (Appeals).

Notional interest on deposits paid by employer to landlord cannot be considered while computing perquisite value of residential accommodation

May 8, 2012 2689 Views 0 comment Print

On a plain reading of Rule 3, it is seen that the perquisite value of the residential accommodation provided by the employer is to be computed on actual amount of lease rental paid or payable by the employer and not on notional basis. Therefore, in our opinion, the contention of the revenue that the notional interest on the deposits paid by the employer to the landlord has to be taken into consideration while computing the perquisite value of the residential accommodation cannot be accepted in view of the express words used in Rule 3 of the Income Tax Rules, 1962 as amended w.e.f. 1.4.01.
