The company purchased a scooter in the previous year for Rs. 4,500.It paid for the scooter in cash. There is no dispute that the scooter was in use as a business asset. Depreciation was claimed and presumably allowed also thereon.4. The ITO, however, thought that Section 40A(3) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 ('the Act') applied in the matter. This section, to the extent relevant, reads as under : (3) Where the assessee incurs any expenditure in respect of which payment is made, after such date (not being later than the 31st day of March, 1969) as may be specified in this behalf by the Central Government by notification in the Official Gazette, in a sum exceeding two thousand five hund...

1. This appeal by the assessee against the order of the AAC is relevant for the assessment year 1979-80. The narrow issue before us is whether Section 20A of the Wealth-tax Act, 1957 ('the Act'), which had been inserted by the Finance (No. 2) Act, 1980, with effect from 1-4-1980 would be applicable to the assessment year 1979-80.2.

At the time of filing of the return for the assessment year 1979-80, the assessee excluded the properties partitioned in the said partial partition dated 25-1-1979. The WTO, however, ignored the claim of the assessee on the ground that according to the new provisions of Section 171(9) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 ('the 1961 Act') inserted by the Finance (No. 2) Act, 1980, with effect from 1-4-1980, the immovable property belonging to the HUF will be assessed as it was assessed in the wealth-tax assessment of the assessee ...
