Jethiben K Patel Discretionary Trust Vs DCIT (ITAT Ahemdabad)- In the case of Mohanlal N. Shah (HUF)- Vs- ACIT reported in [2008] 26 SOT 380 (Mum) wherein it was held that as per section 48, option is with the assessee to or not to avail of benefit of indexation for computation of capital gains on transfer of long- term capital asset.
Recently, the Authority for Advance Ruling (AAR) in the case of M/s Amiantit International Holding Ltd. [2010-TIOL-07-ARA-IT] held that the capital gains is taxable only when the applicant derive any profit or gain in the form of money or money’s worth or which is capable of being turned into money has accrued or arisen to the applicant.
The proviso to s. 112(1) provides that “where the tax payable in respect of any income arising from the transfer of a long-term capital asset, being listed securities … exceeds ten per cent of the amount of capital gains before giving effect to the provisions of the second proviso to section 48 (i.e. indexation), then, such excess shall be ignored for the purpose of computing the tax payable by the assessee“.
As can be seen from the above the adjustment made by the assessee is according to the provisions of the Act. Since both the industrial galas fall within the block the WDV is increased by the actual cost of the asset falling within the block and reduced by the amount payable in respect of the asset sold. Accordingly we do not find any mistake in assessee’s working of the block of assets which is according to the provisions of section 43(6)(c). The A.O.’s action in denying the inclusion of asset within the block is on the condition that the asset was not put to use.
Question Nos. 2 to 6 pertain to one and the same issue, that is, whether IVP is a capital asset or not. It is seat from the orders of the Tribunal that investment in IVP is assessed in the case of the assessee as unexplained investment only to the extent of fresh investment made in the respective year and reinvestment after encashment of earlier deposits was in tact allowed.
Mohanlal N. Shah HUF v ACIT – The option to or not to avail the benefit of indexation for the computation of capital gains on the transfer of each of the long term capital asset is with the assessee as provided in section 48; it is only after computing the capital gains as per section 48, can it be aggregated by setting off the loss under section 70 and it is then that the rate of tax as provided under section 112 is applied.
