Payment of electricity bills to JVVNL is held to be the payment made to the government for the purpose of section 40A(3) of the Income-tax Act and therefore said section 40A(3) cannot be invoked and no addition is called for and additions so made and confirmed by the ld. CIT(A) is directed to be deleted.
When income of the assessee was computed by applying gross profit rate, there was no need to look into the provisions of section 40A(3), as applying the gross profit rate takes care of expenditure otherwise by way of cross cheque also. Following the same the action of Tribunal could not be held as unjustified.
Where assessee had sufficiently explained the circumstances under which the payments were made to the truck drivers in cash, for transport of items and no doubt was raised over genuineness of the payments and the payees were identifiable; no dis allowance under section. 40A(3) was warranted.
Looking to the hard realities, practical problems of traders in respect of payments for the purchases for business, there was need to increase threshold limit of Rs. 20000/- instead it is proposed to be Rs. 10000/- w.e.f. from 1.4.2017(effective date i.e. from the start of the FY 2017-18).
This is an appeal filed by the Revenue against the order of Ld. CIT(A)-II, Jaipur dated 3.12.2013 for A.Y 2009-10 wherein the Revenue has taken following grounds of appeal
Budget 2017 proposes ro reduce existing threshold of cash payment to a person from twenty thousand rupees to ten thousand rupees in a single day; i.e any payment in cash above ten thousand rupees to a person in a day, shall not be allowed as deduction in computation of Income from Profits and gains of business or profession
ITAT Kolkata held that the consequence, which were to be fall on account of non-observation of section 40A(3) must have nexus to the failure of object of introducing of the provision. Therefore, no disallowance can be made if the transactions do not defeat the object of Sec 40A(3) in as much as there genuiness is not challenged and they can be tracked end to end.
It is suggested that there should be a positive provision under the I.T. Act that any transaction involving more than Rs.3,00,000/– (Rupees Three Lacs) shall be invalid & illegal and would be a punishable offence, if amount is not paid by account payee cheque or account payee bank draft or use of electronic clearing system through a bank account.
The books of accounts are duly audited and no defect has been pointed out vis-a-vis the sales, purchase or profit. The purported defects are confined to cash book, which have no nexus with the trading results.
It is crystal clear that the terms of Section 40A(3) are not absolute and that the genuine and bonafide transactions are not taken out of the sweep and it is open to the assessee to furnish to the satisfaction of the AO, the circumstances under which the payment in the manner prescribed u/s 40A(3) was not practicable or would have caused to the genuine difficulty to the payee.
