These two cross appeals – one by the assessee and the other by the Revenue – arise out of the order passed by the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) on 05.08.2010 in relation to the assessment year 2007-2008. Since common issues are raised in these appeals, we are, therefore, proceeding to dispose them off by this consolidated order for the sake of convenience.
It is important to bear in mind uncontroverted claim of the assessee that there were sufficient reserves and surplus, which were eligible for distribution as ‘dividend’, and the NIPL had sufficient cash balances as well. The nature of amounts distributed as dividend has not been altered as a result of, what the revenue authorities describe as, colourable device to evade taxes.
The deduction under section 80-IA(4)(iv)(c) is allowed for a period of ten years. The dispute in the present appeal is as to whether assessment year 2005-06 should be the first year in which the deduction should be allowed. It was clarified at the time of hearing of the appeal that from the assessment year 2006-07, the assessee has been getting the deduction under section 80-IA(4).
The economic problems of milk producers are such that the Parliament/CBDT felt it necessary to incorporate that milk producer should be free to receive payments in cash. Of course, such exclusion from the rigour of the provisions of section 40A(3), is subjected to certain conditions.
Interest expenses directly attributable to tax exempt income as also directly attributable to taxable income, are required to be excluded from computation of common interest expenses to be allocated under rule 8D(2)(ii).
Section 14A has within it implicit notion of apportionment in the cases where the expenditure is incurred for the composite/indivisible activities in respect of which taxable and non-taxable income is received.
It has also been argued that under the provisions of tenancy agreement, assessee had right to bequeath the flat, sub-let/lease it and was also entitled to raise loan against the flat. The assessee had also right to make alteration in the flat and therefore, considering these factors and also the fact that the lease was perpetual, the assessee had to be considered as owner of the flat, entitled to exemption under section 54.
In this view of the situation and after hearing both the parties, respectfully following the aforementioned order we decline to interference in the disallowance uphold by Ld. CIT(A) as the facts are not stated to be different. Accordingly this ground of the assessee for all the years is dismissed.
The submissions made on behalf of the assessee on this issue did not find favour with the learned CIT(Appeals). As regards the emphasis laid by the assessee on the order of Company Law Board, he held that the consent terms in the case of the assessee were agreed by the family as a part of the family settlement and the Company Law Board had simply observed in its order that the parties were prepared to abide by the said settlement. According to the learned CIT(Appeals), the purchase of shares was a result of mutual settlement amongst the family members and the expenditure incurred for this purpose was of personal nature.
As per the provisions of sec 35(2AB) of Act as applicable to the relevant Assessment year, the expenditure incurred by the assessee in any approved in-house research facility, to the extent of approved by the prescribed authority, is entitled to weighted deduction of 150% of such approved expenditure. Therefore, the expenditure as approved by the DSIR in the certificate given by them in Form 3CL alone is to be granted weighted deduction.
