December 13, 2012 1593 Views 0 comment Print

The application made, for recalling the order dated 19th November, 2012, has failed to convince the Court to the fullest extent. The person sworn-in to the affidavit has stated that he was managing the affairs of the Company and he was in the Country for six months, itself, is not sufficient to recall the winding-up order. First of all, he should have stated as to how only he was responsible to file this affidavit when other Directors were available.

In the instant case, the assessee has purchased the property jointly with her husband. She has invested the money in rural bonds jointly with her husband. It is nobody’s case that her husband contributed any portion of the consideration for acquisition of the property as well as bonds. The source for acquisition of the property and the bonds is the sale consideration. It is not in dispute. Once the sale consideration is utilized for the purpose mentioned under sections 54 and 54EC, the assessee is entitled to the benefit of those provision.

CIT and Anr v Shetron Limited (Karnatka HC) – In the present case, the total income assessed was Rs.21,25,981/-.
