Karur Vysya Bank Ltd. Vs. Inspecting Assistant

Court : Income Tax Appellate Tribunal ITAT Madras

Reported in : (1992)42ITD84(Mad.)

..... the assessee is a banking company, under the interest-tax act, 1974, interest-tax was exigible on the chargeable interest of the assessee.further, by virtue of the provisions of section 18 of the interest-tax act, 1974, the tax payable under the said act was deductible in computing the total income of the assessee under the income-tax act. ..... foregoing analysis will indicate that the total income of an assessee computed under the income-tax act will not cease to be the total income computed under the said act, merely because a deduction which is not available under the income-tax act has been given to the assessee by virtue of the overriding provisions of a special act, namely, section 18 of the interest-tax act 1974. ..... such an examination, he found that the surtax assessment orders in question were erroneous in that they were prejudicial to the interests of the revenue. ..... of the aforesaid arguments found favour with the commissioner of income-tax who passed the impugned common order in revision, and directed the assessing officer to recompute the surtax payable by the assessee for the said assessment years, leaving out of reckoning the interest-tax payable by the assessee. ..... on hearing the rival submissions, we consider that the impugned common order in revision, based as it is on an incorrect appreciation of the legal position, is fit to be ..... view of the foregoing, therefore, we hold that the commissioner of income-tax was not justified in passing the impugned common order in revision. .....
