  4. ITAT Hyderabad · 04 Jun 2020
    Having regard to the rival contentions and Rule 9B of the I.T.Rules, we find that the assessee is not claiming the expenditure incurred on the acquisition of movies but the assessee is claiming loss due to non-recovery of advances paid. Rule 9B only provides a method of computing deduction available in respect of expenditure on acquisition of distribution rights of feature films, but does not address the sequence in which deductions are to be allowed.

  6. ITAT Chennai · 03 Jun 2020
    It is well settled principles of law that guideline value is only to guide the Sub-Registrar to find out the correct market value for the purpose of collecting stamp duty. Market value is not a constant figure. It may vary depending upon the various factors. Therefore, the guideline value may not always represent the market value of the property.

    In this case, the unnamed Chartered Accountant had purportedly advised the petitioner to delay in filing returns. He could also have not signed the report of audit in the prescribed form.

  11. ITAT Kolkata · 02 Jun 2020
    Intimation issued u/s 143(1) of the Act does not preclude the assessee from filing a revised return of income. More so, when assessment order u/s 143(3) of the Act was also passed in the present case of the assessee, thus the intimation u/s 143(1) of the Act loses its importance. And we find in this case the assessee has rightly filed the revised return of income u/s 139(5) of the Act within the stipulated time frame as per statute.

    None of the conditions is fulfilled in favour of the Revenue for imposing penalty. As it appears on record that at the very onset of filing of return the assessee explained the reasons for not including the amount in question being 3.79 crores received as “arbitration award” in its taxable income by annexing Note 7 relying upon the content of the India-Netherlands Treaty. Such Explanation has not been found to be false by the authorities below neither there is any finding to that effect as on record. Even assuming the assessee fails to substantiate the explanation, he has been able to demonstrate that the explanation is bona fide.

  14. ITAT Mumbai · 02 Jun 2020
    As decided in own case Revenue received by the assessee from offshore supply of goods to ONGC could not be taxed in India. We thus finding no infirmity in the order of the CIT(A) in context of the issue under consideration uphold the same to the said extent. If the service provider does not make available the technical knowledge, experience, skill know how or process etc., then the consideration received for rendering of such services cannot be characterised as royalty for the purpose of Article XII(3)(g) of India-Australia DTAA.

  15. ITAT Delhi · 02 Jun 2020
    As per Section 144C of the Act, it is mandatory for the Assessing Officer to pass draft Assessment Order. But instead of that, the Assessing Officer vide order dated 18.10.2019 merely captioned the final Assessment Order as Draft Assessment Order along with issuance of notices under Section 156 and 274 read with Section 271(1)(c) of the Act which means a final Assessment order u/s 144C was passed without following the mandatory provisions of Section 144C.
