The learned Assessing Officer has failed to appreciate the Development Control Rules of Pune Municipal Corporation and the provisions of The Bombay Provincial Municipal Corporation Act 1949 and has further erred in holding that the authority to issue the completion Certificate to the building vests with the PMC.
Assistant Commissioner of Income tax v. Srj Peety Steels (P) Ltd. (ITAT Pune) – When noting incriminating was found in the course of search relating to any of the assessment years, the assessments for such years could not be disturbed; further, consumption of the electricity for the manufacture of mild steel ingots / billets depends on various factors and the AO did not attempt to establish a direct nexus between production and electricity consumed and therefore no addition was called for.
n the recent past the question of interpretation of newly inserted section 12AA( with effect from 01/04/1997) has always been perennial teaser not only to the trust or institutions but also to the Revenue Department as also faced by the judiciary. To get the answer we have heard both the sides at length, carefully perused the impugned order and also several correspondences filed in the compilation in the light of the case laws cited
7. Ld. Sr. Counsel appearing for the assessee has contended that the Tribunal in its appellate order has cited two Supreme Court decisions in Royal Hatcheries V. State of Andhra Pradesh. AIR 1994 SC 666 and in M/s.Sil Import USA Vs. M/s.Exim Aides Silk Exporters, AIR 1999 SC 1609, 1612-13, without confronting the assessee at the time of hearing of the appeal before the Tribunal, and therefore
In Asstt. CIT v. Suman Construction (2009) 27 (II) ITCL 329 (Pune ‘A’-Trib) the assessing officer had noticed that the assessee had claimed salary to partners of Rs. 2,20,000. However, in his opinion as per the partnership deed filed along with the return in the past assessment year, there was no specification of this salary payable to the partners.
19. One of the things which is clearly discernable from the facts of this case is that so far as the year before us is concerned, which was incidentally first full year of assessee’s operations, the import content of the raw materials was as high at 98.95%. This is materially different from the import content of the raw material in the cases of the comparables selected by the revenue authorities.
In respect of AY 2002-2003, the assessee claimed by a revised return that the loss suffered in respect of one s. 10A unit was not liable to be set-off against the profits of another s. 10A unit. The AO rejected the claim and the assessee accepted the decision of the AO. On the question whether the assessee was liable for penalty u/s 271 (1) (c) for “furnishing inaccurate particulars of income”, especially in the light
In Dharmendra Textile Processors’ case (supra), Their Lordships have held that that penalty under section 271(1)(c) provides remedy for loss of revenue. A penalty under section 271 (1)(c) involves payment of an additional amount, which is a civil liability to provide for remedy for loss of revenue, while a sentence of imprisonment under section 276 C means loss of individual liberty which does not help revenue in anyway except as serving as a deterrent for the potential defaulters.
7. There was a search and seizure action against the assessee on 10-10-1995. In pursuance thereto, the A.0 initiated proceedings u/s 158BC of the Act. Notice u/s 158BC read with section 158BD dated 10-9-1996 was issued to the assessee requiring the assessee to prepare and file the return of income in the prescribed form setting forth his total income including the undisclosed income for the block period from 1-4-1985 to 10-10-1995
14. The assessee has also taken a plea that the assessee did not deduct the tax at source on the interest liability credited to L T Ltd. as per the legal advice given by M/s. C.C. Chokshi Co. This explanation of the assessee has been rejected by the C1T(A) by saying that this submission of the assessee that no TDS was deducted by the assessee under a legal advice of M/s. C.C. Chokshi Co., lacks merit because this advice is
