Nimbus Sport International Pte. Ltd. v. DDIT (ITAT Delhi) -Coming to the issue about the advertisement revenue received by the assessee in Singapore for matches played abroad, it has not been disputed that the matches in question for which advertisements were given by the Indian company were all played in foreign countries. The assessee does not have a PE in India. In this eventuality, the revenue collected by it for the matches played overseas and telecast at overseas will not attract the theory of force of attraction for taxing them in India.
DCIT vs. M/s Calcutta Test House Pvt. Ltd. (ITAT Delhi) – Non-resident lessor does not have PE or business connection in India on account of leased assets used in India but delivered outside India, provided the lease agreement is entered on principle to principle basis.
ACIT vs. Smith & Newphew Healthcare (P) Ltd. (ITAT Mumbai) – As rightly held by the CIT(A), the requirement of law is that the Assessee has to “keep and maintain” information and documents in respect of international transaction entered into with AE. Rule 1OD(4) of the Rules envisages that the information and documents specified under sub-rules (1) and (2) should, as far as possible, be contemporaneous and should exist latest by the specified date referred to in clause (iv) of section 92F, which is due date for filing return of income u/s. 139(1) of the Act.
SKIL Infrastructure Ltd. Vs. ITO (ITAT Mumbai)- The nature of arrangement entered by the appellant for transportation of its employees between residence to office is similar to the arrangement mentioned in the circular No. 558, dated 28th March 1990, issued by the CBDT regarding the applicability of the provisions of section 194C of the Act to the hire charges paid to bus owners. Apartment from this, other circulars (ie., circular number 681 dated March, 8, 1994, circular No. 713 dated August 2, 1995 and circular number 715 dated August 8, 1995) have specifically provided that the provisions of section 1 94C of the Act shall apply in case where bus or any other mode of transport is chartered. Based on the reading of the circulars, I am of the opinion that payments made by the appellant are of similar nature and hence tax should be deductible under section 1 94C of the Act;
According to the aforementioned definition, capital asset means property of any kind held by an assessee whether or not connected with the business or profession and it excludes certain items which while considering the facts of the present case are not relevant. Therefore, it has to be seen that whether by entering into an agreement vide which the assessee was allotted a particular flat by allotment letter whether the assessee has held any asset or not? By entering into an agreement to allot a flat, the assessee has identified a particular property which he is intended to buy from the builder

DCIT Vs. M/s CMR Design Automation Pvt Ltd (ITAT Delhi)- Assessee was paying Shri Mahesh Chandra as share holder a sum of Rs. 25 lacs per annum as salary. This compared very favourably with the salary being disbursed in the industry in which the assessee was placed. Moreover, all disbursements to Sh. Mahesh Chandra was cleared by Board Resolutions. The profit of the assessee company has also arisen phenomenally during the year. In other words, commission and bonus paid to Sh. Mahesh Chandra was an incentive, which was directly related to the profitability of the company.
Smt. Alka Agarwal Vs. ADIT (ITAT Delhi) – once the assessee has converted a capital asset into stock-in-trade, the capital gain arising on such transaction of transfer shall be deemed to be the income of the previous year in which transfer took effect. That was the ordinary position where the capital gain would have been liable to tax in the AY 2005-06 itself. Now, the provisions of Section 45(2) make an exception to the generality of provisions of Section 45(1).
Admittedly, in the instant case the assessee had purchased the shares outside stock exchange directly from the broker in physical form though D-mat account was opened at a belated date with this explanation that at the time of purchase of shares, he was not having D-mat account and on opening of D-mat account, the shares were transferred.
Arrangement for transportation of petroleum products was essentially a contract for transportation of goods and not an arrangement of hiring of vehicles. In view thereof, tax is required to be deducted at source from the payments to the carrier in terms of provisions of sec. 194C of the Act and not u/s 194I of the Act.
