In so far as the DTAA between India and Canada is concerned, it is observed that article 12(4) thereof gives the definition of the term fees for include services while article 12(5)(a) provides that notwithstanding the said definition given in article 12(4), fees for included services does not include amount paid for services that are ancillary and subsidiary as well as inextricably and essentially linked, to the sale of property.
As stated earlier, the risk and liabilities undertaken by the charter M/s Puyvast, the Netherlands entity, is limited only to a situation where the tonnage carried by the vessel is less than 19500 tonnes. Therefore, the substantial freight beneficiary is the owner of the ship, the Iranian entity and in view of this, the conclusion of the revenue authorities that relief under DTAA is not allowable is justified
During the period when the eligible unit enjoys exemption u/s.10B of the Act , if it suffers a loss then the same will be quarantined and carried forward to the assessment years immediately following the last of the assessment years for which the Assessee is entitled to claim exemption u/s.10B of the Act, for being set off in accordance with law as if it were any other loss to be dealt with in accordance with Sec.70 to 72 and 32(2) of the Act.
We, next, consider the assessee’s argument that the document itself explains the source of the money with it (as on the relevant dates), so that the mandate of the section is satisfied, and no addition could be made. That is, the Department cannot take a contrary stand, accepting the document as true, yet overlooking the fact that the same itself clearly spells out the source of the money.
It is essential that the expenditure incurred on the construction of any structure on the leased premises should result in saving of the revenue expenditure at the subsequent stage. In the present case, from the pleadings of both the sides, it cannot be ascertained whether the assessee is getting enduring benefit of revenue nature from the additional structure or renovation/repairs undertaken by the assessee on the leased out premises. In our considered opinion, the case of the assessee very much falls within the ambit of Explanation 1 of section 32(1) of the Act. Therefore, both the appeals of the assessee are dismissed being devoid of merit.
In our considered opinion. for making any disallowance u/s. 14A is to firstly examine the assessee’s claim of having incurred some expenditure or no expenditure in relation to exempt income. If the AO gets satisfied with the same then there is no need to compute disallowance as per Rule 8D.
It is clear that the completion of assessment/re-assessment without furnishing the reasons recorded by the Assessing Officer for initiation of proceedings under section 147/148 of the Act is not sustainable in law as it is incumbent on the Assessing Officer to supply them within reasonable time as held by the Hon’ble Apex Court in the case of GKN Driveshafts (India) Ltd. v ITO (supra).
As rightly submitted by the learned DR, one of the reasons given by the AO for making disallowance u/s 40(a)(ia) was that the payment of freight charges was made by the assessee on account of air fare and not shipping charges and even the said air fare was not directly paid to the airlines but the same was paid to the different parties who acted as freight booking agents.
Assessee has objected to the valuation adopted by the stamp valuation authority and has also filed the valuation report by an Approved Valuer in support of the actual fair market value. The provisions of clause (a) of sub-section (2) of section 50C, provides that where the assessee claims before the Assessing Officer that the value adopted or assessed by the stamp valuation authority under sub-section (1) exceeds the fair market value of the property as on the date of transfer,
In the case before us, admittedly no plans were made, therefore, there is no question of getting the same approved. Apart from this, the ld. counsel of the assessee admitted that assessee has no evidence to prove that assessee wanted to start construction. If the tax is allowed to be postponed merely on the basis of purchase of plot then no assessee would pay correct taxes during the year
