The finding of the AO is that expenditure incurred by the head office will have to be allocated to the Indian offices. There has been no allocation made by the assessee. The income is being offered for tax on cost plus basis, therefore, the general and administrative expenditure incurred by the head office for running India offices has to be considered for working out the cost base.
Last proviso to section 54F clearly mentions that when amounts deposited under Capital Gains Account Scheme were not utilised wholly or partly for the purchase or construction within the period specified, then such amount would be charged as income of the previous year in which the period of three years, starting from the date of the transfer of the asset expired.
It cannot be said that Hindu is a separate community or a separate religion. Technically Hindu is neither a religion nor a community. Therefore, expenses incurred for worshipping of Lord Shiva, , Hanuman, Goddess Durga and for maintenance of temple cannot be regarded to be for religious purpose.
In the instant case of the assessee, the legal position is clear in as much as not having made the application under section 197 r.w.s. 195 of the Act to the Assessing Officer for lower or no deduction of tax, he was statutorily duty bound to have deducted tax at the specified rate on the ‘sum’ i.e. the sale consideration, before making payment to the seller who was an NRI.
On perusal of records, it was found that the assessee has filed detailed objections on selection of two comparables. But the D.R.P. has not made any reference in the impugned order about the objections of the assessee. Thus, the order of the D.R.P. cannot be termed as a speaking order. The said order deserves to be set aside to file of DRP for fresh adjudication.
Assessee spent considerable amount on advertisement of the institution which never existed and further, prospectus of the assessee trust has devoted substantially on carrying out the business activities of group concern showing logo of milk product. These factors were sufficient to hold that the ld. CIT rightly rejected both the applications of the assessee, particularly when no educational or charitable activities have been actually carried out and the assessee in initial stage,
Where the assessee has written off the value of assets in the books of assessee as obsolete, can it still be include the value of said machinery in the block of assets and claim depreciation thereon. In the decision of the Hon’ble Delhi High Court in the case of M/s Bharat Aluminium Co., Ltd., the Court held that in order to be entitled to claim depreciation asset has to be owned by the assessee and it has to be used for the purpose of business or profession, but the expression used for the purpose of business, would apply for block of assets and not any specific building, machinery, plant or furniture in the said block of assets, as the individual assets loose identity after becoming inseparable part of block of assets.
The assessee had not deducted tax at source on the ground that the depositors intended to file form No. 15G/15H in time but Form No. 15G/15H were not filed by the date on which the interest was credited/paid to the depositors. In section 40 the word shall not be deducted in computing the income chargeable under the heads Profits and gains of business or profession have been employed.
The main issue is with regard to allowability of foreign travel expenditure. The assessee claimed foreign travel expenditure at Rs. 20,35,971. As the assessee not furnished details of expenditure relating to business and pleasure trips, the Assessing Officer disallowed 80% of foreign travel expenses at Rs. 16,28,777. On appeal, the CIT(A) directed the Assessing Officer to allow 1/3rd of the expenditure instead of 1/5th of the expenditure. Against this the assessee is in appeal before us.
Tribunal had taken the view that when the AIR shows some investment and the assessee denies it, no addition can be made on account of unexplained investments without further evidence to show that the assessee made investments.
