The true test, therefore, must lie in whether or not the view taken by the Assessing Officer could be said to be a possible view of the matter, upon due application of mind to facts of the case as also the applicable legal provisions.
The assessee is maintaining separate books of account for the purpose of business. The tax-free investments are in his personal capacity. As the AO has not disallowed any expenditure of personal nature out of the business income, the expenditure claimed in the business of share dealings cannot be correlated to the incomes earned in personal capacity that too on dividend, PPF interest and tax free interest on RBI bonds. Accordingly, the estimation of expenditure of Rs. 20,000 out of business expenditure as being incurred for earning tax free income is not acceptable.
The plea of the assessee based on Minda Investments Ltd that the disallowance should be deleted cannot be accepted as in the later decisions similar matters have been restored to the file of the AO and according to rule of precedence, later decision passed by similar strength of the Bench has to be followed in preference to the earlier decision.
The AO can not apply Rule 8D without pointing out any inaccuracy in the method of apportionment or allocation of expenses as adopted by the assessee. Rule 8D r.w.s. 14A(2) can be invoked only if the AO “having regard to the accounts of the assessee, is not satisfied with the correctness of the claim of the assessee in respect of expenditure incurred” in relation to tax-free income.
The learned Assessing Officer has failed to appreciate the Development Control Rules of Pune Municipal Corporation and the provisions of The Bombay Provincial Municipal Corporation Act 1949 and has further erred in holding that the authority to issue the completion Certificate to the building vests with the PMC.
A continuing debit balance, in our humble understanding, is not an international transaction per se, but is a result of the international transaction. In plain words, a continuing debit balance only reflects that the payment, even though due, has not been made by the debtor.
It was held that the payment of National roaming charges is not rent for the use of telecom equipments in accordance with Section 194-I of the Income-tax Act, 1961 (the Act) and accordingly not liable for deduction of tax at source.
CUP method is the ‘most appropriate method’ to determine the arm’s length price in the cases of generic drug manufacturers so long as comparables are available and while innovators of drugs are allowed monopolistic pricing during the period when patents are in force so as to recoup the R & D costs, once the patent period expires, the higher pricing of the drug vis-à-vis prices of generic drugs manufactured by competitors cannot be justified on the ground of heavy R&D costs.
In Circular 204 dated 24.7.1976, the CBDT has accepted that u/s 23(1)(a) the “sum for which the property might reasonably be expected to let from year to year” is the municipal valuation of the property. The same view that the Municipal valuation is the annual value u/s 23(1)(a) has been taken in CIT vs. Prabhabati Bansali 141 ITR 419 (Cal) & M.V. Sonavala vs. CIT 177 ITR 246 (Bom); The contrary view in Makrupa Chemicals 108 ITD 95 (Mum) & Baker Technical Services (P) Ltd 126 TTJ (Mumbai)(TM) 455 that annual value determined by the Municipal authorities is not binding on the AO while determining the annual value u/s 23(1)(a) if it can be shown that the rateable value under the municipal laws does not represent the correct fair rent cannot be followed in view of M.V. Sonavala 177 ITR 246 (Bom) where it was held that the rateable value under the municipal law has to be adopted as annual value u/s 23(1)(a); Note: The issue whether notional interest can be considered u/s 23(1)(a) is pending before the Full Bench of the Delhi High Court in CIT vs. Moni Kumar Subba
