  6. Direct Tax ·ITAT Mumbai · 23 Oct 2013
    No carry forward of losses of 'beneficial ownership' for intra-group share transfers, ITAT rejected the assessee contention that the share transfer within the group did not result in a change of beneficial ownership. A company is a distinct legal entity; its identity is separate from the identity of its shareholders or members. While the transferor and the transferee may belong to the same group, it could not be said that the shareholding pattern had not changed. Mrs. Manisha Sanghani held controlling shares in Priority One Marketing P. Ltd. However, Priority Marketing P. Ltd. being a separate legal entity, it cannot be construed that the shareholding pattern of the taxpayer has not changed in spite of transfer of shares from Priority Marketing P. Ltd. to Mrs. Manisha Sanghani as the holding remains within the group.
