1. Whether in the facts and circumstances of the case, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal has not acted illegally and perversely in making observations with regard to grant of exemption under section 10(23C)(vi) when the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal has no jurisdiction to decide any application/appeal arising out of order passed either granting or rejecting exemption under section 10(23C)(vi) of the Act by the competent authority ?
CIT (E), while considering an application for registration under Section 12AA, is not supposed to examine whether applicant is entitled for certain exemptions under Section 11 or 12 or not since that is within the jurisdiction of Assessing Authority and not CIT (E).
On the facts and circumstances of the case, the learned Director of Income Tax (Exemption)has erred both on facts and in law in rejecting the application of the assessee for registration under Section 12A of the Income Tax Act, 1961.
In the present case, the assessee was not having any trust deed. So it is quite difficult for the ld. Commissioner to arrive at a firm conclusion about the objects of the trust. In case the trust deed is being written after application for grant of registration, then that deed can never be seen through by the ld. Commissioner for satisfying himself.
This appeal by the assessee is directed against the order of Commissioner of Income Tax -I, Pune dated 29-11-2013 rejecting the application of the assessee for grant of registration under section 12AA(1)(b)(ii) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 (hereinafter referred to as the Act).
Advocate Akhilesh Kumar Sah Just because the assessee has not filed income tax returns in earlier years, it can not be said that the activities of the assessee of the charitable trust / society were not genuine and grant of the registration under section 12AA cannot be denied
Assessee society is generating surplus year after year is not the deciding factor to determine whether it is eligible for exemption under section 11 of the Act. And on this ground alone, the exemption claimed by the assessee society under section 11 can not be denied. What is relevant to examine is whether the surplus so generated is ploughed back in furtherance of its educational objectives and related activities or not.
In a big relied to Baba Ramdev’s Patanjali Yogpeeth, the Delhi bench of Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) has allowed exemption status under section 11 and 12 of the Income Tax Act.
DIT-E had denied registration to assessee-trust because he was of opinion that in absence of dissolution-clause assessee-trust was not entitled for registration.
