In the case of remittances by banking channel the onus on the assessee U/s. 69 stands discharged, and therefore, section 5(2)(b) does not apply

April 2, 2009 1752 Views 0 comment Print

The assessee, who is a non-resident, brought money into India through banking channel and the manner in which this money was utilized in India is described in the Annexure. We have observed in the above paragraphs that because of the mode of banking channel, admittedly, used for the remittance in this case, the onus on the assessee u/s 69 stood discharged, and therefore it was not taxable in India u/s 5(2)(b) of the Act. The CBDT Circular (supra) squarely supports the case of the assessee. The fact that the transactions and events narrated in the Annexure look curious and suspicious makes no difference to the conclusions that we have drawn in this case, as per law, in the above paragraphs.
