Commissioner of Income-tax Vs. Ciba of India Ltd.

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-06-1989

Reported in: [1990]182ITR455(Bom)

S.P. Bharucha J.1. The real question posed is whether the Appellate Tribunal was right in holding that the expenditure incurred by the assessee by way of freight and duty in transporting machinery received by it as a gift constituted a part of the actual cost of the asset.2. Dr. Balasubramanian, learned counsel for the Revenue, opened his arguments by reading the questions and the statement of the case. The statement of the case refers to what the Tribunal held by its order dated December 21, 1972. That order finds that many relevant considerations in regard to the question had not been considered by the authorities below. It, therefore, directed the Appellate Assistant Commissioner to determine these matters after hearing both sides.3.The order was subsequently varied on a miscellaneous application filed by the assessee. The only mention of this order in the statement of the case is that the Tribunal had declined to refer a particular question raised by the Revenue 'because the order ...

Commissioner of Income-tax Vs. Doctor and Co.

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-06-1989

Reported in: [1989]180ITR627(Bom)

T.D. Sugla J.1. The only question referred to this court in this case at the instance of the Department is :'Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, any part of the interest paid by the assessee during the accounting period relevant to the assessment year 1971-72 merited disallowance ?'2. The assessee is a firm and the assessment year involved is 1971-72. It is common ground that the assessee had borrowed moneys from different persons in the previous years relevant to the assessment years 1967-68 and 1968-69 on interest and that a part of the money so borrowed was advanced to its sister concerns free of interest. The sister concerns are All Steel and Asian Industries, in which the partners of the assessee-firm are also partners. It is also common ground that the interest to the extent it was payable on the moneys borrowed and diverted to sister concerns free of interest was disallowed in those years.3. For the year under reference, the assessee stated that it had no...

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-06-1989

Reported in: [1990]181ITR174(Bom)

S.P. Bharucha, J.1. This reference under section 256(1) of the Income-tax Act, 1961, raises, at the behest of the Revenue, the following question :'Whether, on the facts and circumstances of the case, the assessee acquired only a right to litigate and did not hold any interest in the leasehold land and hence the compensation amount of Rs. 4,23,044.67 is not liable to capital gains ?'2. For reasons that will become apparent, we reframe the question thus :'Whether, on the facts and in the circumstances of the case, the compensation amount of Rs. 4,23,044.67 was liable to tax as a capital gain in the hands of the assessee for the assessment year 1971-72 ?'3. The relevant previous year ended on June 30, 1970.4. The assessee is a co-operative housing society. It was established prior to 1944. On October 27, 1944, the assessee applied to the Municipal Corporation of Greater Bombay for a lease in perpetuity of plot No. 7 of Scheme No. 57 situated at Sewri-Wadala Estate, Bombay.
