The issue was whether External Development Charges paid to a statutory authority attract TDS. The Tribunal held that such payments are subject to section 194C, following binding High Court precedent.
SC dismissed the Revenue’s challenge and affirmed that Common Area Maintenance charges are service-related payments, not rent, and attract TDS under Section 194C.
The Tribunal held that ritualistic approval under section 153D, without application of mind, vitiates search assessments. Mandatory supervisory approval must reflect genuine examination of draft orders.
The Tribunal set aside a Section 69C addition where subcontract payments were backed by bills, accounts, and TDS compliance. Non-filing of return by the recipient was held insufficient to brand the expense as bogus.
The Tribunal held that enhancing profit to 10% without comparables was arbitrary. Past accepted margins around 6% had to guide estimation. Income was directed to be computed at 6%.
The Tribunal examined whether non-deduction of TDS on External Development Charges justified treating the payer as an assessee-in-default. It held that the Assessing Officer must first verify whether the payee has already paid tax, as mandated by the proviso to section 201(1).
The ITAT held that depreciation cannot be disallowed when ownership, usage, and actual cost of assets are undisputed. Mere suspicion about the source of funds is insufficient to deny statutory depreciation.
SEO Description: Relying on binding Delhi High Court authority, the Tribunal held that EDC payments require TDS under Section 194C. Non-compliance validly triggered demand and interest provisions.
ITAT Chennai confirmed that 8% profit estimation for a civil contractor was reasonable, rejecting the assessee’s 6% claim and AO’s 10% estimate, emphasizing consistency with subsequent years’ presumptive returns.
Tribunal clarified that the Section 251 amendment uses the term ‘may set aside,’ meaning it is discretionary. Since the issue was already resolved in remand, addition was deleted.
