Assessing Officer found that the assessee has received a sum of Rs. 29,03,109/- on account of sale of Women’s Day Flags and the same has been credited to the capital fund and he treated the same as revenue receipt. On Appeal Honourable ITAT has held that sale proceeds of flags on Women’s Day are in the nature of capital receipts.
The ITAT Panaji in the case of ACIT Vs. Karishma Global Mineral Pvt. Ltd. held that the sales commission paid by assessee to Singapore based entity is not taxable in India as the same is business profits which cannot be taxed in the hands of foreign company under India
From the reading of Sec. 80P(4) it is apparent that this section denies deduction to a co-operative bank other than a primary agricultural credit society or primary co- operative agricultural and rural development bank.
Government only intended to restrict the investment in a particular financial year and accordingly has fixed the limit of Rs. 50,00,000/- as permissible limit in a particular financial year. The Government did not intend to restrict the maximum amount of exemption permissible under Section 54EC.
The question arises is whether the assessee is entitled for the deduction under section 80P(2)(a)(i). Section 80P(2)(a)(i) is explicitly clear that if the co-operative society is engaged in the business of banking or providing credit facilities to its members the co-operative society is entitled for the deduction. There is an embargo put by section 80P(4) which was introduced into the statute by the Finance Act, 2006 with effect from 1-4-2007. This section denies the deduction to a co-operative bank. It is a fact that prior to the insertion of sub-section (4) ,the assessee was getting the deduction under section 80P(2)(a)(i).
