the Court direct the department to accept the return Forms which are submitted by the taxpayers, subject to a genuine difficulty. After acceptance of those return Forms, on scrutiny if it is found by the concerned officer that there is no genuine difficulty on the part of the taxpayer in giving the details required in various columns, those Forms may finally be treated as not filed as required, and they will be subject to final decision taken by the concerned officer. However, it is also made clear that if under the rules no Annexures are required to be attached then no Annexures shall be attached to the return Form.
Gross total income in Chapter VI-A means the total income computed in accordance with the provisions of the Act before making any deduction under the said Chapter VI-A. Thus, the only deductions which are excluded by that definition are those under Chapter VI-A. More importantly the total income has to be computed in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act. Obviously, the provisions of Income Tax Act includes section 32-AB.
For the foregoing reasons, the petition succeeds. The three orders namely; (1) the order dated October 6, 1992 passed by the Commissioner of Income Tax, Baroda, declining to accept the claim of the petitioner for interest on refund on the ground that it is not admissible under Sections 243(1)(b), 244(1A) and 214(2) of the Act,
Court noted that basic requirement of Sec.53A of TPA is a written agreement and Sec.2(47)(v) can be invoked only if conditions laid out in Sec.53A are fulfilled. In the instant case there was neither any written agreement between the Assessee and builder nor any consideration received by her thus 53A of TPA can’t come into play as a result of which 2(47)(v) can’t be invoked. Thus it held that there was no transfer in the instant case within the meaning of Sec.2(47)(v) of the Act and since there is no transfer, question of resulting profit and capital gain doesn’t arise.
The question brought before us by the Revenue is, as to whether the income from sale of plants grown directly in the pots and the sale of seeds, can be treated as agricultural income within the meaning of section 2(1) of the Income-tax Act, 1961? The finding of the Tribunal is that the plants were not grown in the pots directly, but they are, after several operations carried out in the land, viz., cutting, gootying and inarching for the plants, transplanted in suitable containers, including pots and kept in the green house or in shade, and the trees were grown on the land directly.
Depending on the facts, nursery income may or may not be agricultural income. We are giving here two HC judgements that will help you. You can always file a return for AY 07-08 claiming nursery income as agriculture income(if facts permit so) and this would not be concealment or furnishing inaccurate particulars of income.
In the present case during the course of assessment proceedings it was noticed that there were credit balance in the names of two parties amounting to Rs.3,52,581/- appearing in the books of account of the assessee. On being asked to verify the same, the assessee agreed to surrender it. The said cessation of liability could not be treated to have been earned from business of export and, thus, shall not form part of the turnover of the export business.
The interesting question raised in this petition is, where a company deducts tax at source (TDS) from the salary payable to an employee, but fails to deposit the said amount into the Government treasury, whether, the revenue can recover the TDS amount with interest from the employee concerned in spite of the express bar contained in section 205 of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
In the instant case, there was no evidence to show that money was loaned or kept deposited for a fixed period or repayable on demand. Further, the sister concerns and the assessee were owned by the same family group of people with a common managing partner with centralised accounts under the same roof
