The Court held that electricity duty collected by a licensee is not its own liability but that of consumers. As a result, Section 43B was found inapplicable and the disallowance was rightly deleted.
ITAT Mumbai rules actuarial provisions for employee benefit schemes are allowable under Section 37(1) as ascertained liabilities, deletes major disallowances on expense provisions, limits TDS applicability to payment stage, and prevents double taxation of expenses.
The Court dismissed the appeal after finding that all issues were already settled by earlier rulings. It held that no new question of law arose and affirmed the Tribunal’s order.
The court held that revision under section 263 requires independent satisfaction by the PCIT. Acting merely on the Assessing Officer’s view renders the revision order invalid.
The Tribunal validated reopening under Section 147 based on credible post-search information. Proper procedure under Section 148A was followed, making reassessment lawful.
Tribunal directed allocation of common head-office expenses (and common income) to eligible industrial undertakings when computing deductions under sections 10B and 80-IB, following prior coordinate-bench rulings; AO must apply the earlier directions on remand. Key takeaway: common corporate overheads and income were to be apportioned to units for deduction-computation as previously directed.
The Tribunal noted that the assessment proceedings were conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic and the assessee could not respond to certain notices. The case was restored for reconsideration after giving adequate opportunity.
The tribunal considered whether CPC could rely solely on the original tax audit report to make an adjustment. It held that corrections through revised reports and financial records must be examined before sustaining an addition.
The case involved CPC adjustment denying deduction for employees’ PF contribution deposited after statutory due dates. The tribunal ruled that before the Supreme Court’s later decision, the issue was debatable and could not be adjusted under Section 143(1).
The Central Government, in the Union Budget 2026, has proposed an important amendment concerning employee welfare funds. The objective of this change is to rationalize the provisions relating to the allowability of deduction under the Income-tax Act for employee contributions deducted from salaries towards welfare funds such as the Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF), Employees’ State Insurance (ESI), and similar statutory funds.
