Esteemed Members,Festivals are the days that consolidate our unity and solidarity and when fraternity is felt, and joy as well as sorrows are shared most. The festival approaching soon is Ramzan Eid. Ramzan or Id-ul-Fitr is celebrated on 29th July 2014. Eid Mubarak to all my friends.
Another festival approaching is Guru Purnima.
“Guru Purnima marks one of the greatest moments in the life of humanity. This is a day that is reminiscent of Adiyogi opening up and offering the possibility that a human being can evolve beyond all limitations set by his physical nature, if willing to strive. This first full moon day after the solstice is a time when this planet and all life upon it are most receptive to the cosmic energy and possibilities. The next six months till the winter solstice is the best time to strive for evolving and experiencing the divine possibility that is innate in a human being.” – Sadguru.
I wish all of you a very Happy Guru Purnima.
Finance Minister Arun Jaitley presented the Union Budget for the 2014/15 financial year. Outlining the roadmap for fiscal consolidation, Jaitley said the government will retain the fiscal deficit target for 2014-15 at 4.1 per cent of GDP and reduce it further to 3 per cent by 2016-17. Presenting his maiden Budget, the Minister said the prevailing economic situation presents a great challenge and there was a need to introduce fiscal prudence that will lead to fiscal consolidation and discipline.

DIRECT TAXES LAW UPDATE
— Compiled by — CA. Hemant R. Shah | e-mail: [email protected] |9869011148 SUPREME COURT JUDGEMENTS:1) Sanjeev Lal vs. CIT (Supreme Court)Section 2(47) / section 54: If an agreement to sell is entered into within the prescribed period,
there is a transfer of some rights in favour of the vendee. The fact that the sale deed could not be executed within the time limit owing to supervening problem is not a bar for exemption U/s 54.Consequences of execution of the agreement to sell are very clear and they are to the effect that the appellants could not have sold the property to someone else. In practical life, there are events when a person, even after executing an agreement to sell an immoveable property in favour of one person, tries to sell the property to another which would not be in accordance with law because once an agreement to sell is executed in favour of one person, the said person gets a right to get the property transferred in his favour by filing a suit for specific performance and therefore, without hesitation it can be said that some right, in respect of the said property, belonging to the appellants had been extinguished and some right had been created in favour of the vendee/transferee, when the agreement to sell had been executed. A right in respect of the capital asset, viz. the property in question had been transferred by the appellants in favour of the vendee/transferee on 27/12/2002. The sale deed could not be executed for the reason that the appellants had been prevented from dealing with the residential house by an order of a competent court, which they could not have violated. As held in Oxford University Press vs. CIT [(2001) 3 SCC 359] a purposive interpretation of the provisions of the Act should be given while considering a claim for exemption from tax and one can very well interpret the provisions of Section 54 read with Section 2(47) of the Act, i.e. definition of “transfer”, which would enable the appellants to get the benefit U/s 54 of the Act. HIGH COURT DECISIONS1) CIT vs. Devdas Naik (Bombay High Court)Section 54/54F: Two flats, even though acquired under different agreements & from different sellers, are one residential unit, if there is a common kitchen:The Department’s argument that the law laid down by the Tribunal in ITO v/s Sushila M. Jhaveri 107 ITD 327 (Mum)(SB) and confirmed by this Court in CIT v/s Raman Kumar Suri (Income Tax Appeal No.6962 of 2010, decided on 27/11/ 2012) on the availability of exemption U/s 54 is applicable only when the house purchased is a single unit and not where two flats, one acquired in the assessee’s name and another jointly in the names of the assessee and his wife but under two distinct agreements and from different sellers have been taken into consideration is not acceptable. Though these flats were acquired under two distinct agreements and from different sellers, the map of the general layout plan as well as internal layout plan in regard to flat Nos.103 and 104 indicate that there is only one common kitchen for both the flats. The flats were constructed in such a way that adjacent units or flats can be combined into one. The admitted fact is th at the flats were converted into one unit and for the purpose of residence of the assessee. Thus, though the acquisition of the flats may have been done independently but eventually they are a single unit and house for the purpose of residence.2) Partha Sarathi Das Vs. UOI & Others (Odisha High Court)Hon’ble Odisha High Court has granted stay on the recovery of late fees charged U/s 234E of the Income Tax Act, 1961. In separate cases Hon’ble Bombay, Rajashthan, Kerala and Karnataka High Court have already stayed the recovery proceeding U/s 234E of the Income Tax Act,1961 till the final verdict in the case. TRIBUNAL DECISIONS1) Lodha Builders Pvt Ltd vs. ACIT (ITAT Mumbai)Though accepting/repaying loans/advances via journal entries
contravenes section 269SS & 269T, penalty cannot be levied if the transactions are bona fide & genuine. The time limit for penalty U/s 271D & U/s 271E is governed by section 275(1)(c) & not 275(1)(a).Other amendments/developments:BUDGET-20141) Disallowance for non-payment or non-deduction of TDS restricted to 30%:Under section 40(a)(ia) of the Act, in case of payments made to resident, the deductor is allowed to claim deduction for payments as expenditure in the previous year of payment, if tax is deducted during the previous year and the same is paid on or before the due date specified for filing of return of income U/s 139(1) of the Act.In case of non-deduction or non-payment of TDS from certain payments made to residents, the entire amount of expenditure on which tax was deductible is disallowed U/s 40(a)(ia) for the purposes of computing income under the head “Profits and gains of business or profession”. The disallowance of whole of the amount of expenditure results into undue hardship.In order to reduce the hardship, it is proposed that in case of non-deduction or non-payment of TDS on payments made to residents as specified U/s 40(a)(ia) of the Act, the disallowance shall be restricted to 30% of the amount of expenditure claimed.2) CBDT revises the monetary limits for filing Appeals to ITAT, High Court and SC:The CBDT has issued Instruction No. 5/2014 dated 10/07/2014 whereby, with a view to reducing litigation, the monetary limits for filing of appeals by the Department before Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, High Courts and the Supreme Court, have been upwardly revised.3) Revised Profession Tax Rates in Maharashtra w.e.f. 01/07/2014Maharashtra Government in its Additional Budget presented on 5th June, 2014, has increased minimum salary limit for Profession Tax from Rs.5000/- to Rs.7500/- which has come into effect from July, 2014 on salary payable in August, 2014. (Schedule of rates of tax on professions, trades, callings and employments after Budget can be seen at : http://taxguru.in/goods-and-service-tax/revised-profession-tax-rates-maharashtra4) One of the much-discussed controversial matters pertaining to the related party provisions under the new Company Law is whether the ‘related party’ be construed in relation to the transaction or the company. Another issue of debate has been with regard to the applicability of Section 188 to the existing contracts approved under the 1956 Act.Section 188, second proviso of the Companies Act, 2013 prohibits any ‘related party’ to exercise voting rights on a resolution seeking members’ approval to any related party transactions, rationale being to avoid any hollow compliance of getting special resolution approval through voting by interested parties. Further, Section 2(76) of the Act defines ‘related party’ to include the specified categories of persons in relation to the company. The point of debate is whether ‘related party’ prohibited from voting refers to only those related parties which are concerned or interested in the proposed contract/arrangement or it includes all the related parties covered in the definition.To address this grey area, MCA has now issued a clarification vide circular No.30/2014 on July 17, 2014. It is clarified that the term ‘related party’ be construed relating to the contract or arrangement for which special resolution is being proposed.Circular also contains two more important clarifications stating that -1) All contracts/arrangements enteredinto by complying with Section 297 of 1956 Act will prevail until expiry of its original term. Section 188 of the new Act shall be complied with only if any modification is made to such contract/arrangement on or after April 1, 2014; and2) the transactions arising out of compromises, arrangements and amalgamations dealt under the provisions of the old/the new Act will not attract Section 188 of the new Act.
