AO declined assessee’s claim of deduction on the plea that the profit claimed as deduction u/s 80-IB(10) of the Act was not derived from the housing project but from sale of unutilized FSI.
The office of the Comptroller & Auditor General (C & AG) conducts compliance as well as performance audit relating to specific area of work of the Department. Such an audit on the ssue relating to “Allowance of deduction to the assessees engaged in Infrastructure Development” was conducted by the C & AG in the year 2015 and the report was tabled in Parliament on 22/11/2016
It is a settled position that revenue subsidies received from the Government towards reimbursement of cost of production/manufacture or for sale of the manufactured goods are part of profits and gains of business derived from the Industrial Undertaking/ eligible business, and are thus, admissible for applicable deduction under Chapter VI-A of the Act.
The CBDT did not have any established mechanism to assess the impact of revenue foregone on account of deduction under section 80 IA on the economic and industrial growth of the country.
Deduction U/s. 80IB is allowable over a period of 6 years which follows that conditions for claiming deduction must remain fulfilled in all years for which deduction being claimed
The Supreme Court held In the case of CIT vs. M/s Meghalaya Steels Ltd. that the Calcutta High Court in Merino Ply & Chemicals Ltd. v. CIT, 209 ITR 508 [1994], held that transport subsidies were inseparably connected with the business carried on by the assessee.
Exemption available under Chapter VI-A in respect of profits of industrial undertakings is available only in respect of income qualifying the litmus test of “profits or gain derived from undertaking”. The revenue and assessees have been locking their horns over the issue of Subsidies
M/s. D.S. Kulkarni Developers Ltd. vs. ACIT (ITAT Pune)- Tribunal held that the building plans for the residential and amenities space were sanctioned independently and merely because a common lay out plan was passed by the authorities, does not disentitle the assessee to the claim of deduction under section 80IB (10).
Section 80-IA of the I.T. Act, 1961, grants deductions in respect of profits and gains from Industrial Undertaking or enterprises engaged in Infrastructure Development, etc. As per section 80-IA (1), where the gross total income of an assessee includes any profits and gains derived by an undertaking or an enterprise from any business referred to in section 80-IA (4), there shall be allowed,
DCIT vs. Smt. Suman Jagannath Pharande (ITAT Pune) For the contention of inclusion of Canopy area in total built area, the ITAT held that built up area means the inner measurement of the residential unit at the floor level, including the projection and balconies, as increased by the thickness of the walls but does not include the common area shared with other residential units.
