Assessee has duly disclosed the gifts and there was no concealment in this regard. Only the assessee has failed to produce the alleged donor that the penalty has been imposed. I further find that section 271(1(c) of the Act postulates imposition of penalty for furnishing of inaccurate particulars and concealment of income.
The only other issue is against the decision of the learned CIT(A) for treating sum of Rs. 1,37,49,302 being payment of living allowance by the Indian company to expatriates as fees for technical services in the hands of the appellant. The facts apropos this issue are that the experts of the assessee deputed for rendering services to HME and HCM received living allowances as per the agreement entered into between the assessee and HME and HCM. The Assessing Officer included this amount in fees for technical services and assessed it accordingly. No relief was allowed in the first appeal.
Provisions of Section 10A are beneficial provisions; the explanation given by the CBDT in Circular No.697 dated 23.11.1999 entitling the assessee to the benefits of S.10A; and also the legal position that the Act has not restricted the assessee from outsourcing of certain services necessary for producing an article or a thing, say, web maintenance in this case, assessee should be held as eligible for relief under S.10A of the Act.
It is seen from the material on record that there is no contract of employment between the assessee-company and non-whole time directors. They were also not paid any fixed remuneration. The Board’s resolution dated May 15, 2002, which has been extracted in the impugned order of the Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) provides for payment of remuneration/ commission not exceeding one per cent.
The Assessing Officer has been entrusted the role of an investigator, prosecutor as well as adjudicator under the scheme of the Income-tax Act. If he commits an error while discharging the aforesaid roles and consequently passes an erroneous order causing prejudice either to the assessee or to the State Exchequer or to both, the order so passed by him is liable to be corrected.
There was no enquiry by the Assessing Officer on the issues raised by the CIT in his order u/s. 263 of the Act. The lack of enquiry or inadequate enquiry by the Assessing Officer could be very much reason for assuming jurisdiction u/s. 263 of the Act.
The assessee must prove beyond the shadow of the doubt there existed a reasonable cause for not complying with the conditions contained in section 269SS of the Act. Circumstances under which the cash was accepted must be explained. Unfortunately no cogent material was produced in that direction.
It is a fact on record that the assessee has adopted the CUP method for computing the Arms’ Length Price for the international transaction entered into by it with its AE for the medical transcription service rendered by it to the AE. In this regard, the assessee has considered two external comparables and three internal comparables.
Section 11(1) provides subject to the provisions of section 60 to 63, the income which is derived from property held under trust wholly for charitable or religious purposes, to the extent to which such income is applied to such purposes in India; and, where any such income is accumulated or set apart for application to such purposes in India,
In the case of Harley Street Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (supra) it has been held that provisions of Sec.50C are applicable only for computation of capital gains in real estate transaction in respect of seller only and not for the purchaser. Legal fiction cannot be extended any further and has to be limited to the area for which it is created.
