Reimbursable expenditure received by the assessee cannot form part of the total income under DTAA between India and USA

December 21, 2010 615 Views 0 comment Print

Reimbursable expenditure and the fee payable for technical services under DTAA between India and USA- the reimbursable expenditure received by the assessee cannot form part of the total income. – since the development of infrastructure falls within the industrial policy of Government of India specific approval may not be required for claiming exemption u/s. 10(6A) of the Act. – what was reimbursed is the service tax paid by the assessee to the Government account. therefore, such an amount cannot form part of technical fee. In other words, it cannot be treated as trading receipt. In view of the above, in our opinion, the reimbursement of service tax cannot form part of the total income of the assessee. – fee received by the assessee towards technical services / consultancy would fall under Article 12 and not under Article 7. Therefore, tax has to be levied only at 15% and not at 20%. – there is no liability to pay the advance tax wherever the tax was deducted at source. Therefore, interest was not chargeable u/s. 234B of the Act.
