Delay In Dispatch Of Assessment Order Renders It Void

December 11, 2012 15737 Views 4 comments Print

No doubt the provisions of section 153 requires that assessment order shall not be passed after the expiry of two years from the end of the assessment year in which the income was first assessable. This is applicable to this case. There is no requirement that service must be effected before the expiry date but there must be evidences to show that assessment order was indeed passed before the limitation.

Page 1 of Annexure-XIV gives the details of payments on which tax has not been deducted at all.

sec. 41(1) No tax on depreciation claim if capital loan is waived off by lender

December 11, 2012 2680 Views 0 comment Print

It is true that the assessee on the one hand gets the waiver of monies payable on purchase of machinery and claims such receipt as not taxable because it is capital receipt. On the other hand the assessee claims depreciation on the value of the machinery for which it did not incur any cost.

Taxability of income arising from sale of asset held under Gold Deposit Scheme

December 8, 2012 1528 Views 0 comment Print

It is not in dispute that on the date of maturity, i.e., 22.11.2006, the certificates of gold were redeemed, therefore, 22.11.2006 should be considered as the date of acquisition of the gold for the purpose of computation of capital gains. The authorities below were, therefore, not justified in rejecting the claim of assessee for short term capital gains on redemption of bonds.

Expenditure on civil and electrical works incurred in leasehold premises is not enduring benefit

December 8, 2012 2316 Views 0 comment Print

It has been held that when any expenditure is incurred by an assessee on leasehold premises, even though it may give an enduring benefit, it would not amount to capital expenditure as no capital asset is being created in favour of the assessee. In some of the cases, the expenditure is on civil and electrical works also.

S.10A Foreign remittances to be credited within 6 months in a/c of assessee

December 8, 2012 1732 Views 0 comment Print

Unless the foreign remittances are credited in the account of assessee or at least credited in the account of the bank, it can not be said that the export proceeds have been received in or brought into India. The assessee has placed on record a certificate from State Bank of India which only states that the proceeds of the foreign remittances had been credited to the account of the assessee.

No deduction U/s.10A if Assessee do not file ROI within the due date

December 6, 2012 4775 Views 0 comment Print

The Proviso to s. 10A(1A) provides that no deduction under this section shall be allowed to an assessee who does not furnish a return of his income on or before the due date specified u/s 139(1). The assessee’s argument that the said Proviso is merely directory and not mandatory is not acceptable.

ALV of Property will be Nil if it was let out in earlier years but lying vacant in previous year

December 6, 2012 4371 Views 0 comment Print

It appears that there is a difference between the provisions of Section 23(1)(c) of the Act and those of Section 23(4) thereof. However, it is not so. As per Section 23(1)(c), if any part of the property was let out and was vacant during the year or any part thereof, and due to such vacancy, the annual rent received or receivable was less than the sum for which the property might reasonably be expected to let from year to year, the lesser of the two amounts, i.e., t

Penalty Justified for Failure to Explain source of Credit in the name of Partners

December 6, 2012 1324 Views 0 comment Print

A very heavy onus is placed on the assessee to explain the difference between the assessed income and returned income and the assessee in the instant case did not discharge the said onus. In the light of the discussion made above and conduct of the assessee, it is thus clear that all the material facts and particulars relating to the assessee’s computation of income were never disclosed by the assessee,

Delay of 1529 days in filing cross objections due to oversight cannot be condoned

December 6, 2012 3407 Views 0 comment Print

There is no dispute on the fact of delay of 1529 days as well as on non-furnishing of any affidavit by the Counsels affirming that assessee had a conference with the Counsels which give raise to the necessity of filing the impugned cross objections. Further, there is no explanation as to why and under what circumstances, the assessee approached the Counsels on 26-12-2008 only and not within 30 days from the receipt of the notice.
