In the instant case, the deductee has already discharged tax liability with interest payable under Section 201(1)(a) of the Act. As such no further interest can be claimed by the revenue from the respondents either under Section 234A or 234B or 234C of the Act. The view taken by the Tribunal for the reasons stated cannot be faulted.
Question Nos. 10 and 11 pertain to assessee’s challenge against levy of interest under section 234B of the Act for non-payment of advance tax. The assessee has relied on the decision of the Supreme Court in CIT V. RANCHI CLUB LTD., 247LT.R, 209 and decision of the Delhi High Court in CIT v. INCHCAPE INDIA (P) LTD.,
The Patna High Court in the case of Ranchi Club Ltd. Vs. C.I.T. [1996] 217 ITR 72 (Pat.), rendered a very significant judgement that interest under Section 234A and 234B is to be levied on the income declared in the return of income and not on the assessed income. This judgement was passed on 13.11.1995. Thereafter, on 2.7.1996, another very significant judgement was rendered in the case of Ranchi Club Ltd. & Others Vs. C.I.T. [1996] 222 ITR 44 (Pat.)
