No Question of Law on Exercise of Revisionary power by CIT after recording cogent reasons if ITAT upheld the same

April 26, 2013 687 Views 0 comment Print

The Commissioner after recording cogent reasons found that the order passed by the Assessing Officer was erroneous and also prejudicial to the interest of the Revenue. He was therefore, on facts of the case entitled to exercise revisional powers under section 263 of the Act. While doing so, he remanded the proceedings before the Assessing Officer for full inquiry and fresh consideration. He had not given any specific directions to consider the issue in particular manner. In any case, the Tribunal further clarified this issue in the impugned order as can be seen from the noted portion of the order itself.

Consistent losses show mistake/ absence of intention to evade taxes

April 26, 2013 1778 Views 0 comment Print

Mere mistake in making of a claim in the return of income would not ipso facto reflect concealment or furnishing of inaccurate particulars of income in terms of section 271(1)(c) of the Act. The wrong claim of depreciation in the present case cannot be said to be made with an intention to evade taxes in as much as even after the disallowance of depreciation, the resultant income of the assessee remains a loss. In fact, the assessee had pointed out before the Assessing Officer that it has been incurring losses since the year 2003 due to the market forces. Considering the entirety of the circumstances, in our view, the impugned disallowance on account of depreciation is a mistake, and does not invite the provisions of section 271(1)(c) of the Act.

S. 80G Registration cannot be denied for mere non utilization of Government Grant

April 26, 2013 988 Views 0 comment Print

Section 80G(5)(i)(b) provides the condition for exemption or rejection of the application for renewal, if the donation made to the institution or funds are not used by it directly or indirectly for the purpose of such business. In the present case the Commissioner did not record any such finding that the funds, which was earmarked and was kept in separate account in fixed deposit was not used by the respondent assessee directly or indirectly. Infact there was no occasion to misuse the funds as the hospital had not yet started and thus the plant and machinery could not be purchased from the grant, which was kept in fixed deposit.

April 26, 2013 3778 Views 0 comment Print

In this case Payment was made for reimbursement of the permission granted to the assessee for using trade mark ‘Wool, New Zealand’. Such payment cannot be said to be fee for technical services. Even otherwise also, in the light of the detailed discussions made in paragraph nos. 13, 14 and 15 of this order, such reimbursement of expenses are not subject to TDS. Accordingly, no disallowance is warranted. The addition of Rs. 2,88,135/- is deleted.

Once the registration has been granted under section 12AA of the Act, the exemption under Section 11 cannot be withdrawn unless there is violation of provisions of Section 13 of the Act or the registration under Section 12AA(3) of the Act is cancelled. The Tribunal held that the decision of this Court in the matter of CIT v. Pruthivi Trust [1980] 124 ITR 488 is distinguishable on facts as the Trust in that case was carrying out profit making activity without any authorisation in the Trust Deed.
