CESTAT : Affirms taxation of catering services rendered by Co.'s co-operative society to employee-members

CESTAT affirms taxation of catering services provided by assessee, a registered cooperative society, from the premises of L&T to its employees u/s 65(105)(zzt) of Finance Act; Notes that L&T has statutory obligation under Factories Act to provide culinary service and in this regard, established a cooperative society comprising of employees as also company itself for operating the canteen, and consideration for meal was paid in tandem by consumer and employer; Whether food articles were provided free of cost or at subsidized rates or at market prices, was a matter of labour-employer negotiations and it was clear that without the concurrence of L&T, assessee could neither engage in activity of running canteen nor decide rates of food articles or composition of individuals to be served; Holding assessee as ‘service provider’, CESTAT found that it operates from campus of L&T, thereby satisfying all requirements of taxability u/s 65(105)(zzt); Relies on coordinate bench ruling in Alfa Laval (India) Ltd Employees Co-operative Consumers Society case while rejecting assessee’s claim of mutuality, opines that society and its membership was not germane to contract between L&T and assessee for engaging latter as caterer : Mumbai CESTAT

Questions ITAT's 'mechanical adherence' to Galileo ruling on 15% profit attribution

Delhi HC allows Revenue’s appeal challenging ITAT order attributing 15% of assessee’s (USA based limited partnership concern, engaged in online airline booking services) income to India relying on co-ordinate bench ruling in Galileo International Inc; ITAT had held that assessee's operations in India constituted a PE under Article 5 of India-USA DTAA while attributing 15% income to Indian operations; Observing that Revenue's challenge is to ITAT's "mechanical adherence" to attribution rate of 15% in Galileo ruling, HC notes that "the AO had based his conclusions and determined the income based upon figures furnished by the assessee, as is apparent from a plain reading of the order"; Thus, rules that the ITAT “ought not to have disturbed that order, without a finding” and accordingly directs ITAT to render specific findings on the questions urged before it:HC 

ITAT : Rejects exclusion of strategic investments in Sec 14A-disallowance computation, reverses CIT(A) order

Mumbai ITAT rules against taxpayer & reverses CIT(A), denies relief from Sec 14A in respect of strategic investment made by assessee (a cooperative bank) in its subsidiary company;  Observes that the statute does not grant any exemption to strategic investments which are capable of yielding exempt income for arriving at Sec. 14A disallowance; Thus holds that any investment including strategic investments in subsidiary company as well as in other securities which are capable of yielding tax-free income (by way of dividend) shall be included for the purpose of computing disallowance u/s 14A; Relies on Karnataka HC ruling in United Breweries, Bombay HC rulings in Reliance Utilities and HDFC Bank Ltd. and coordinate bench ruling in Uma Polymers Ltd. ; Separately holds that assessee being a cooperative society is not subject to Sec. 40A(2) disallowance in respect of payment towards software and data entry services to its related enterprise, relies on Bombay HC ruling in Manjara Shetkari Saharakari Karkhana Ltd. in this regard:ITAT 

CESTAT: Disallows credit of 'outward freight' not included in assessable value; HC ratios inapplicable

CESTAT disallows CENVAT credit of tax paid on outward freight not forming part of ‘assessable value’ of manufactured goods; According to CESTAT, accepting assessee’s contention that value of service claimed as "input service" is not includible in assessable value, would result in availment of undue privilege of credit balance by paying lower tax and retention of tax recovered from customer, which is clearly not intent of CENVAT Credit Rules (CCR); CCR do not purport to be an exemption mechanism, but rather govern the manner in which a fund of ‘non-money’ is acknowledged as means of discharging tax/duty obligation and regulates its operation: Stating that, “foundation of Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004 is inherent relationship with tax liability for without a tax liability on output goods or services, the Rules are merely academic”, CESTAT holds that quantum of credit is linked to ingredients that constitute value for tax liability; Rejects assessee’s reliance on various HC rulings such as ABB Ltd. and Parth Poly Woven Pvt Ltd, stating that they do not pertain to determination of dispute whether credit availed was in confirmity with CENVAT Credit scheme, and on other hand, relies on decision of Maharashtra Scooters Ltd. to conclude that tax paid on outward freight is unavailable to offset duty liability on output goods : Mumbai CESTAT

SC: Admits SLP against HC-ruling holding Jindal Group's transaction as colourable device

SC admits assessee’s (Abhinandan Investment Ltd., a Jindal group company) SLP against Delhi HC ruling for AY 1992-93 wherein HC had held that the transaction of renunciation of rights for subscribing to partly convertible debentures (‘PCDs’) of JISCO (another Jindal Group company) was a colourable device to contrive artificial loss; Assessee had renounced rights in PCDs in favour of another group company (‘JSL’) at a significantly lower price than the market value resulting in a significant loss, such loss set-off claim was denied by the HC by regarding it as only a notional loss; Taking note of peculiar facts whereby assessee sold JSL shares during relevant year resulting in substantial capital gains, and at the same time undertaking a transaction of renunciation of rights resulting in huge losses, HC had opined that “In order to avoid paying the tax, the investment companies including the Assessee entered into transactions for renunciation of rights with related companies of the same group. These incestuous transactions were for no other business purpose but to contrive a loss in the hands of..assessee who had incurred a tax liability on account of the gains made”; Relying on SC ruling in Azadi Bachao Andolan and Vodafone International Holding BV, HC had held that “in order to examine whether a transaction is a device or a subterfuge the answer to the question whether the transaction has any reasonable business purpose would be a vital consideration”; HC has thus ruled that the transactions were implemented by the assessee for no commercial purpose but to create a tax loss while ensuring that the rights remained within the Jindal Group  

ITAT: Payments by SMS-provider to telecom-operator towards connectivity charges not royalty; Sec. 194J inapplicable







Mumbai ITAT reverses CIT(A)’s order for AY 2011-12, payments made by assessee (a bulk SMS provider) to domestic telecom operator towards connectivity charges not taxable as royalty within the meaning of Sec. 194J; Revenue held that TDS u/s 194J was applicable on payments on the ground that transmission of bulk SMS was pursuant to “use of equipment” of the telecom operator in view of explanation 6 to Sec. 9(1)(vi) [bought with retrospective effect by Finance Act, 2012], as against TDS u/s 194C applied by the assessee and thus regarded assessee as "assessee in default" for short-deduction of TDS; Notes that the payee created customers account and provided IP address, user name and password to the assessee, also notes that the assessee integrated such details in its application for transmitting bulk messages to the telecom operator; Further notes that the payments received by the assessee from its customers, including the IT Department were subject to TDS u/s 194C and that assessee neither had any access/control over any of the connectivity facilities/ server/network of the telecom operator; Thus rules that agreement entered into between the assessee and the telecom operator was in the nature of works contract as “it was kind of standard connectivity facility which has been provided by Telecom Operator and nothing else”:ITAT


The ruling was delivered by ITAT bench of Shri. Amit Shukla and Shri. Ashwani Taneja.
Mr. Mihir Naniwadekar argued on behalf of the assessee while Revenue was represented by Mr. Prakash Mane.

ITAT: Allows depreciation on goodwill claimed during assessment sans filing revised return



Ahmedabad ITAT dismisses Revenue’s appeal for AY 2010-11, allows depreciation on ‘goodwill’ claimed by the assessee – company during the course of assessment proceedings vide a revised computation of income without filing revised return of income; Notes that pursuant to the scheme of arrangement approved by Gujarat HC in AY 2008-09, assessee had acquired the consumer products division and other related intangible assets of the such business which was accounted for as “goodwill” in its books of accounts; Pursuant to subsequent SC ruling in Smifs Securities Ltd., assessee claimed depreciation on goodwill arising on amalgamation which was denied by the AO on the ground that assessee did not file revised return of income to make a “rightful” claim; ITAT follows Bombay HC ruling in Pruthvi Brokers and Shareholders wherein it was held that the AO is bound to entertain rightful claim of deduction made otherwise than by filing a revised return of income; Separately applying the principle of consistency also allows depreciation on non-compete fees, relies on coordinate bench ruling  Medicorp Technologies Pvt. Ltd. and Pune ITAT ruling in Serum Institute of India Ltd., also takes note of Revenue’s reliance on Delhi HC ruling in Sharp Business System:ITAT


The ruling was delivered by ITAT Bench of Shri. R.P Tolani and Shri. Manish Borad.
Mr. M. M. Patel with Jigar M. Patal argued on behalf of the assessee while Revenue was represented by Mr. R.I Patel.

ITAT : Allows indexation benefit on long-term capital gains for working MAT liability u/s 115JB

Bangalore ITAT allows assessee’s (a Government undertaking) appeal for AY 2008-09, holds that long term capital gains (‘LTCG’) arrived at by reducing indexed cost of acquisition from asset’s sale proceeds to be considered for computing MAT liability u/s 115JB;  Observes that clause (ii) to Explanation to Sec. 115JB provides that amount of income u/s 10 [other than provisions of Sec. 10(38)/ 11/ 12], credited to P&L a/c shall be reduced from book profits for MAT computation; Further observes that the term 'any income’ used in Sec. 10(38) refers to only the amount of LTCG as computed u/s 48 which provides for computation of capital gains after the reduction of cost of acquisition; Thus rules that the “benefit of indexation of cost of acquisition should be given to the assessee while computing long term capital gain for the purpose of section 115J8 of the Act”, relies on SC ruling in Ajantha Pharma  and coordinate bench ruling in M.S.R & Sons Investments Ltd.; Separately on noting that the assessee was set-up for infrastructure development allows contribution to Chief Minister's Relief Fund (towards development and reconstruction of infrastructure facility in Karnataka) as business expenditure u/s 37 , relies on SC ruling in Sri Venkata Satyanarayana Rice Mill Contractors Co. in this regard:ITAT

Few Important Points on Revised GST Model Law.




Right from the beginning of talks relating to GST, we all were hoping that with the introduction of GST, there will be “One Nation, one Tax” or at least “One Nation, Few Rates”. But the actual scenario is quite different. GST Council has already decided that there will be 4 rate slab i.e. 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%. In addition to this there will be a new cess with the name “GST Compensation Cess” for first 5 years on some specified items. Now since government has come out with relevant draft law on this 26th day of November, 2016, let’s understand this new levy of cess.

Three Imp Verdicts On Transfer Pricing, Taxability Of Software As Royalty And S. 50C Capital Gains

Shell Global Solutions International BV vs. DDIT (ITAT Ahmedabad)

Interplay between Article 9 of the DTAA and Transfer Pricing law in the Act explained. While Article 9 is an enabling provision, the TP mechanism under the domestic law is the machinery provision. There is no occasion to read Article 9 as confined to enabling ALP adjustment in respect of only domestic entities. The mere fact that the OECD Commentary etc give examples related to economic double taxation situations does not imply that the Article 9 (1) cannot be applied to other situations
