H.P. Tourism Development Corporation Ltd. Vs. Commissioner of Income T ...

Court : Himachal Pradesh

..... it held as follows:we find no merit in these civil appeals filed by the department for the following reasons: firstly, as stated above, section 43-b [main section], which stood inserted by finance act, 1983, with effect from 1st april, 1984, expressly commences with a non-obstante clause, the underlying object being to disallow deductions claimed merely by making a book entry based on merchantile system of accounting. ..... once this uniformity is brought about in the first proviso, then, in our view, the finance act, 2003, which is made applicable by the parliament only with effect from 1st april, 2004, would become curative in nature, hence, it would apply retrospectively with effect from 1st april, 1988. ..... the main question which arises for determination in this appeal is whether omission [deletion] of the second proviso to section 43-b of the income tax act, 1961, by the finance act, 2003, operates with effect from 1st april, 2004, or whether it operated retrospectively with effect from 1st april, 1988? 3. ..... however, as stated above, the second proviso resulted in implementation problems, which have been mentioned hereinabove, and which resulted in the enactment of finance act, 2003, deleting the second proviso and bringing about uniformity in the first proviso by equating tax, duty, cess and fee with contributions to welfare funds. ..... it is true that the parliament has explicitly stated that finance act, 2003, will operate with effect from 1st april, 2004. .....
