F.No. 285/90/2013 IT(Inv.V) Guidelines for Compounding of Offences under Income Tax Act, 1961/Wealth tax Act, 1957 in cases of persons holding undisclosed foreign bank accounts/assets
In view of CBDT order F.No.225/154/2015/ITA-II dated 2.9.2015 issued under section 119 of the Income-tax Act, extending the due date for e-filing returns of income from 31st August, 2015 to 7th September, 2015 in respect of all taxpayers who were required to e-file their returns of income by 31st August, 2015, the ‘due date’ for filing return of wealth by such assessees for assessment year 2015-16 also stands extended from 31st August 2015 to 7th September 2015.
Madras High Court held in CIT Vs M/s MIL Industries Ltd that the vacant land left on constructed property as per the construction plan of that property would not be treated as a vacant urban land because the vacant land left was the requirement of the construction plan
The Assessing Officer while computing the total wealth of the assessee added the value of the let-out properties i.e. godown and offices in the total wealth of the assessee for the purpose of calculating the wealth-tax.
Central Board of Direct Taxes vide order under section 119 of the Income-tax Act F.No.225/154/ 2015/ETA-II dated 10.6.2015 has extended the ‘due date’ for filing Return of Income for assessment year 2015-16 in respect of assessees falling under clause (c) of explanation 2 to sub-section (1) of section 139 of the Income-tax Act from 31.7.2015 to 31.8.2015, In view of the same, the ‘due date’ for filing Retain of wealth by such assessees for assessment year 2015-16 also stands extended from 31 st July 2015 to 31 st August 2015.
It cannot be said that the land owned by the assessee was a vacant land. The character of the land has changed and it was no more plot of the land. Urban land, no doubt, is subject to the tax under the Wealth Tax Act, but, in our opinion, it will cover only the vacant land.
For the purpose of levy, assets are classified as two categories one as productive and other as non productive. Under the provisions of amended Act, tax is levied only on non productive assets such as residential house, urban land, jewellery, bullion, motor car etc. In the case in hand, industrial plots are being utilized as productive assets.
