Where a benefit of deduction is available for a particular number of years on satisfaction of certain conditions under the provisions of the Income Tax Act, then unless relief granted for the first assessment year in which the claim was made and accepted is withdrawn or set aside, the Income Tax officer cannot withdraw the relief for subsequent years. More particularly so, when the revenue has not even suggested that there was any change in the facts warranting a different view for subsequent years.
Circular no. 8/2012-Income Tax The present Circular contains the rates of deduction of income-tax from the payment of income chargeable under the head Salaries during the financial year 2012-13 and explains certain related provisions of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter the Act) and Income-tax Rules, 1962 (hereinafter the Rules). The relevant Acts, Rules, Forms and Notifications are available at the website of the Income Tax Department- www.incometaxindia.gov.in.
CIT Vs. Surya Educational & Charitable Trust (P&H HC) – Section 10(23C) of the Act are the provisions of the Act in substitution of the earlier provisions of Section 10(22) of the Act as to which income shall not be included in computing the total income of any person. Therefore, the provisions of Sections 11, 12 or Section 10(23C) of the Act, deal with the income of a Trust or of the Institution and the circumstances as to when such income is to be excluded for computing the total income, but the basis of such benefit is the registration under Section 12AA of the Act.
Notification No. 42/2012-Income Tax In the Income-tax Rules, 1962, after rule 112E, the following rule shall be inserted, namely:- Class or Classes of cases in which the Assessing Officer shall not be required to issue notice for assessment or reassessment of the total income for six assessment years immediately preceding the assessment year.
There can be no dispute with the proposition that the word ‘attributable’ is much wider in scope than ‘derived’. The Legislature has used the words ‘attributable to’ in conjunction with the phrase ‘anyone or more of such activities’. The investment of the funds by the banks including the non-reserves was part of the banking activities since no bank would like its reserve funds to remain idle and not earn any interest.
We are unable to uphold the view of the Tribunal that it is incumbent upon the Assessing Officer, on the facts and circumstances of the case, to establish with the help of material on record that the share monies had come or emanated from the assessee’s coffers. Section 68 of the Act casts no such burden upon the Assessing Officer.
Vide Order No. 186 dated 04.10.2012 the CBDT has ordered the transfers & postings of several officers in the grade of Commissioners/ Directors of Income-tax with immediate effect.
While considering/deciding the stay application under the said Act, the authority must (i) briefly state the case of the party; (ii) consider whether the party has made out a case for unconditional stay; (iii) the financial difficulty if pleaded be considered and (iv) in case the authority concerned comes to the conclusion that by granting of stay the assessee is likely to defeat the claim of the department then brief reasons for the same be indicated.
Merely because the assessee had claimed the expenditure, which claim was not accepted or was not acceptable to the Revenue, that by itself would not, in our opinion, attract the penalty under Section 271(1)(c). If we accept the contention of the Revenue then in case of every return where the claim made is not accepted by the assessing officer for any reason, the assessee will invite penalty under Section 271(1)( c ) .
The assessee’s quantum appeal has been admitted by the High Court. If the assessee succeeds in the quantum proceedings, it would not even be necessary to consider the s. 271(1)(c) penalty proceedings and so no prejudice has been caused to the department qua the penalty proceedings.
