Reported in: [1993]202ITR274(Cal)

Ajit K. Sengupta, J. 1. In this reference under Section 256(1) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, the Tribunal has referred the following question at the instance of the Revenue relevant to the assessment years 1976-77 to 1980-81 :'On the facts and in the circumstances of the case whether the Tribunal is justified in holding that the mistake which the assessee seeks to get rectified has occurred in the set of rectification orders passed under Section 154 of the Income-tax Act, 1961, on July 12, 1982, and that date should be taken into account for purposes of computing the period of limitation ?'2.

Court: Income Tax Appellate Tribunal ITAT Kolkata

Decided on: Mar-22-1993

Reported in: (1993)45ITD610(Kol.)

1. The appeals are by the department and the cross objections are by the assessee. Since they were heard together, they are consolidated and disposed of by this common order.2. We are concerned with the assessment years 1980-81 and 1981-82. In the assessment made originally under Section 143(3) read with Section 144B, the ITO had allowed depreciation of Rs. 16,65,000 and Rs. 14,12,359 respectively in respect of certain non-factory buildings held by the assessee. Subsequently, the ITO invoked the provisions of Section 154 of the IT Act on the ground that the building which was purchased from Satna Cement Works for a consideration of Rs. 37 lakhs had not become the property of the assessee since no registered conveyance deed was executed in favour of the assessee. According to the ITO, under Section 32 of the IT Act, the assessee, in order to become entitled to depreciation in respect of the assets used in its business, should be the 'owner' of the assets. The ITO was of the view that t...
