The department is challenging the order passed by the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal, Chennai, upholding the order passed by the lower authority and dismissing the appeal of the department.2. The assessee herein is a mother and she had gifted certain gold ornaments, silverware and brassware to her daughter at the time when the marriage of the daughter was performed. It so happened that at that time even the father of the daughter had gifted her certain gold ornaments.3. However, in the case of the father it was found that since the gift was covered by section 5(1)(vii) of the Gift Tax Act, 1958, the claim for the gift-tax was not maintainable. Now it is the case of the mother, who is admittedly an independent assessee, which would obviously mean that she also may have the income of her own. Be that as it may, if in the case of a father it is accepted that the gifts from him would be covered under section 5(1)(vii), there is no reason why the same logic should not ...

Southern Technologies Ltd. Vs. Joint Commissioner of Income-tax

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Jan-23-2002

Reported in: [2008]296ITR514(Mad)

1. The appeal is against the order passed by the Income-tax Appellate Tribunal, whereby the claim of deduction of Rs. 81,68,516 and Rs. 15,27,676 were disallowed as the deductions under Section 36(2) and 36(1)(vii) of the Income-tax Act, 1961. Obviously, these amounts were the provisions made and were earlier allowable under Section 36(1)(vii). However, thereafter an amendment came to be made by adding Explanation to Section 36, because of which any provisions made for bad and doubtful debts were not to be treated as allowable deductions.2. Mr. Janardhana Raja, learned Counsel arguing on behalf of the assessee very fairly contends that he may not have any case on account of the Explanation added to Section 36(1)(vii) and that the provisions made for the payment of bad and doubtful debts may not be allowed in his favour on that count. We also find that the authorities below have correctly read the provisions of Section 36(2) and 36(1)(vii) and have refused to give relief to the assessee...
