Examining the matter in the present case it appears that it is not the case of the Revenue that the findings so recorded is such, which no man with reasonable prudence would arrive at such finding. But the contention sought to be canvassed is that on the date of execution of the Trust Deed, the shares should specifically come in existence with the quantification and it need not depend upon the future share of the benefits or upon any future contingency.
10. In our view, the contention is wholly misconceived for three reasons. One is that by no interpretative process the explanation to Section 164 of the Act, which is pressed in service can be read for determinability of the shares of the beneficiary with the quantum on the date when the Trust deed is executed and the second reason is that the real test is the determinability of the shares of the beneficiary and is not dependent upon the date on which the trust deed was executed if one is to connect the same with the quantum. The real test is whether shares are determinable even when even or after the Trust is formed or may be in future when the Trust is in existence. In the facts of the present case, even the assessing authority found that the beneficiaries are to share the benefit as per their investment made or to say in other words, in proportion to the investment made. Once the benefits are to be shared by the beneficiaries in proportion to the investment made, any person with reasonable prudence would reach to the conclusion that the shares are determinable. Once the shares are determinable amongst the beneficiaries, it would meet with the requirement of the law, to come out from the applicability of Section 164 of the Act.
