In the case of Apollo Tyres Ltd vs. ACIT , ITAT Cochin held that The loss on sale of shares of a wholly-owned subsidiary is allowable under Section 37(1) of Income Tax Act, 1961 as a business loss if the investment in the subsidiary was made for commercial purposes.
Thus, post 1st June 2015, in the course of processing of a TDS statement and issuance of intimation u/s 200A in respect thereof, an adjustment could also be made in respect of the ‘fee’, if any, shall be computed in accordance with the provisions of section 234E. Prior to 1st June 2015, there was no enabling provision therein for raising a demand in respect of levy of fees u/s 234E of the Act.
Interest income on investments of Service Co-operative Banks is business income eligible for deduction u/s 80P(2)(a)(1) and not income from other sources. SC decision in Totgar case not applicable in this case.
The ITAT Bench Cochin held that the assessee would be entitled to deduction u/s 80 IB(7) if its incomes are derived from eligible business irrespective of the manner in which the entries in the books of account are maintained.
The assessee had contended that the Assessing officer was not entitled to make adjustments to book profit shown in the audited The question that had arisen was whether the Assessing officer was entitled to disturb the net profit shown by the assessee in the profit and loss account prepared as per the Companies Act, 1956.
In the present case, we find that the assessee has earned interest income on fixed deposits made by the assessee with sub-treasury, Meenachili, Kadappattoor and SBI Pala totaling Rs. 20,21,909/- and the interest income earned on the surplus funds of the assessee cannot be considered
Hon’ble Cochin ITAT has in the case of M/s Sree Anjaneya Medical Trust while disposing off the appellant’s plea for registration u/s 12A has held that collection of money for admission of students in the professional colleges is not only inhuman but also against the scheme of the Constitution of sec 12A.
In the instant case, the amounts were paid in respect of an obligation in respect of purchase of flat through agreement, therefore, no fault can be found on the part of the AO for treating these charges as interest and liable for TDS u/s 194A of the Act.
The amendment brought in by the Finance Act with retrospective effect, which was passed in the year subsequent to the year under consideration, should not be considered for penalizing the assessee by way of disallowance u/s 40(a)(ia) of the Act.
A bare reading of section 54F clearly shows that the assessee is entitled for exemption in case he / she constructs a residential house within a period of three years after the sale of the capital asset. However, sub clause (4) of section 54F clearly says that the unutilized portion of the net sale consideration which is otherwise liable for capital gain tax shall be deposited in the capital gain account scheme within the period of due date for filing return of income u/s 139.
