The Direct Taxes Code Bill, 2010 which intends to revamp the law relating to direct taxes is likely to result in considerable unacceptable losses on a continuing basis.

For better compliance of the statutory obligations, we recently made a representation to CBDT to review and delete both the Annexures I and II to Form No. 3CD as they have outlived their utility. We are hoping that our request will be accepted by the Department. Further, we also submitted a Representation to CBDT to clarify the applicability of provisions of Section 44AB to Cooperative Societies. This is because it was brought to our notice that majority of Co-operative Societies carrying on business or providing services and claiming deduction under section 80P of the Income tax Act, 1961, were under the impression that they are not required to get their accounts audited under section 44AB of the Income-tax Act, 1961.

Consideration as shown in the Registered Sale Deed cannot be equated with ‘Fair Market Value’, as defined in the Act u/s 2(22B) of the Act. /Therefore, adoption of average value of land at Rs. 27,030/- per acre as on 1.4.1981, as ‘Fair Market Value’ of the land in question, for the purpose of computation of capital gains, is not legally and factually tenable. ‘Fair Market Value’ represents the price that a seller is willing to accept and a buyer is willing to pay in the open market. The price or sale consideration as specified in the Registered Sale Deed of an asset in India represents the price or sale consideration negotiated or determined not in the open market but in the parallel operating market where such transactions crystallized in a clandestine manner. In view of this, sale consideration of an asset, as recorded in the Registered Sale Deed is generally understated and, hence, cannot he taken as ‘Fair Market Value’ as on 1.4.1981 for the purpose of computation of ‘Capital Gains’.
