Assessee liable to pay interest under s 234B and 234C on the tax payable on book profits computed under s 115J, notwithstanding the fact that it was a deemed profit

August 12, 2011 17174 Views 0 comment Print

Bee Pee Jay Finance Ltd. Vs CIT and Anr (Calcutta High Court)- By virtue of Section 11 5JA a legal fiction has been created by which if total income is found to be less than 30% of the book profit, the total income should be deemed to be 30% of the profit and in such a case, if charge ability of interest under Sections 234B and 234C are held applicable only in view of sub-Section (4) of Section 11 5JA, it would amount to adding another legal fiction to an existing legal fiction of Section 11 5JA( 1). According to Mr. Sen in case of a legal fiction, which has to be interpreted for giving its full logical coverage, another legal fiction cannot be added to the same and for the aforesaid proposition.

Assessee can claim lower of depreciation or business loss as claimed in the books of account for the preceding year while computing book profits u/s 115J

August 12, 2011 1705 Views 0 comment Print

Peico Electronics & Electricals Ltd Vs CIT (Kolkata High Court)- We are of the opinion that the term ‘loss’ as occurring in clause (b) of the proviso to Section 205 (1) of the Companies Act has to be understood and read as the amount arrived at after taking into account the depreciation. Then alone the formula prescribed in this clause would make sense and it would be consistent with the object sought to be achieved by enacting Section 115-J of the Income-tax Act, 1961. If loss were to be taken as pre-depreciation loss then the resultant computation will not be in conformity with the tenor of the provisions of Section 205. The language of clause (b) of the proviso to Section 205 (1) is clear.
