Applicability of penalty U/s. section 269T of IT Act, 1961, when payment was made in cash but not exceeded Rs.20,000/- on a single day

November 24, 2009 1219 Views 0 comment Print

A plain reading of language used in the definition of `loan or deposit’ in section 269T clearly provides loan or deposit means any loan or deposit of any nature. Thus, there is no question of excluding current loan for the purpose of section 269T of the Act.

Contractor not eligible for deduction u/s. 80-IA

November 24, 2009 7103 Views 0 comment Print

The use of word developing’ in juxtaposition to infrastructure facility in section 80-1A(4) indicates that what is eligible for deduction under this sub-section is the profits and gains derived from the development of infrastructure facility and not something de hors it; so in order to be eligible for deduction the development should be that of the infrastructure facility as a whole and not a particular part of it; it may be possible that some part of development work is assigned by the developer to some contractor for doing it on his behalf; that will not put the doer of such work into the shoes of a developer; therefore, a mere contractor cannot be conferred with the benefit as provided in section 80-IA.

Explanation 1to section 271(1)(c) in respect of any fact relating to the computation of total income states that the amount added or disallowed in computing the total income of an assessee shall be deemed to be the income in respect of which particulars have been concealed. This deeming provision for concealment is not absolute one.

Allowability of interest expenditure on borrowed funds

November 24, 2009 2766 Views 0 comment Print

In our considered opinion, no prudent businessman would borrow funds on interest and keep his own funds idle. Besides, (he transaction of loan is also not third party transaction but the funds borrowed from the Indian Overseas Bank by the sister concern have been taken as loan by the assessee without any business necessity because its own funds have remained idle throughout the year. The assessee has also admitted that the funds were kept idle and not utilized during the course of the accounting period. We, therefore, see no reason to interfere with the order of the learned CIT (A), which is confirmed.

Once an appeal against the order passed by an authority is preferred and is decided by the appellate authority, the order of the said authority merges into the order of the appellate authority; with this merger, order of the original authority ceases to exist and the order of the appellate authority prevails; the limitation for the purpose of section 154(7) is to be counted from the date of this order of CIT (A) and not the date of original order of assessment.

Directing special audit without opportunity of being heard to the assessee is merely an irregularity and not an illegality

An order under section 142(2A) of the Income Tax Act, 1961, directing the assessee to get the accounts audited by an accountant nominated in this behalf by the Chief Commissioner or the Commissioner and to furnish a report of such audit, does entail civil consequences. The special audit under section 142(2A) is not limited to the mere production of the books and vouchers before the auditor and verification thereof:
