[1] Provision for Income Tax : This provision is created from profit. This is below the line entry. After adjusting necessary items from gross profit, ( e.g. depreciation booked in books of accounts and depreciation allowable as per income tax rules ) taxable income arrives. On that taxable profit we have to make provision for income tax at prevailing rate of income tax.
Services provided by the Builders/ Developers is not taxable prior 01st July 2010. It is taxable from 1st July 2010 onwards as per CBEC circular No. 108/02/2009-ST. Service tax is applicable on under construction property at the time of bookings/agreements made before the construction completes. Is the Flats/Apartments / Villas is given to land owners by a real estate company then service tax is also applicable on such unit.
Savings are generally made from taxable income, which has already been subjected to tax provisions. There are certain savings which, if made enjoy exemption from taxation. Not only this, the income or returns arising from such savings or investments are also exempt from tax and when such savings are redeemed on maturity, they are not subjected to any income tax. Thus, such amounts of savings are never taxed at any pint of time. Such a situation works on a model of exempt- exempt-exempt (EEE). An investment in provident fund or public provident fund or national savings certificate are typical examples of EEE model, at present.
Christmas cheer has come early for foreign nationals working in India. They can now take their entire post-tax salaries home, following a change in rules to this effect by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). This will benefit sectors such as aviation, telecom and infrastructure, which employ a large number of expats, making it easier for them to attract talent from abroad. Earlier, expats could take only 75% of their salaries abroad.

It is settled law that a writ cannot be entertained against a mere show-cause notice unless the Court is satisfied that the show cause notice was totally non est in the eye of law for absolute want of jurisdiction of the authority to even investigate into facts.
