Court : Andhra Pradesh

Reported in : (1985)49CTR(AP)271; [1986]159ITR683(AP)

..... the income-tax officer included the value of the partnership interest acting under section 4(1)(b) of the wealth-tax act, 1957. ..... we, therefore, answer the second question of law referred to us to the effect that the inclusion of the value of the partnership interest in the computation of the net wealth of the assessee under section 2(m) read with section 3 of the wealth-tax act is perfectly valid. 12. ..... that being so, we do not see why the wealth-tax officer cannot seek guidance from rule 2(1) of the wealth-tax rules for the purpose of valuing the partnership interest held by a hindu undivided family for the purpose of the wealth-tax act itself. ..... learned counsel for the assessee then contended that in the event of partnership interest held by a hindu undivided family being taxed under charging section 3 itself, the valuation of such partnership interest cannot be made in the manner prescribed by rule 2(1) of the wealth-tax rules, 1957, for purposes of section 4(1)(b) of the act as the said rule is only for the purpose of section 4(1)(b) of the act. ..... this is the clear effect of section 2(e) and section 2(m) read with section 3 of the wealth-tax act. ..... this reference arises under section 27(1) of the wealth-tax act, 1957 ('the act' for short). ..... reading section 3 together with section 2(e) and 2(m) of the act, there can be no escape from the conclusion that a hindu undivided family is liable to pay wealth-tax in respect of the value of the partnership interest held by it. .....
