... ... ... ... ..... r section 40(a)(i) in respect of consultancy charges paid to various persons outside India. The Commissioner of Income-tax(Appeals) has rightly observed that the disallowance under section 40(a)(i) can be made only if taxes are not withheld on income chargeable to tax in India. In the present case there is no acquisition of technical knowledge which could be independently applied by the assessee. Therefore, the payment could not be construed as if for technical services. The entire services were rendered outside India. There is no permanent establishment for the non resident in India. In these circumstances the Commissioner of Incometax( Appeals) has rightly deleted the disallowance of ₹ 18,99,269/-. This ground of the Revenue is dismissed. 15. The Revenue is partly successful in its appeal. 16. In result, the appeal filed by the assessee as well as the appeal filed by the Revenue are partly allowed. Orders pronounced on Wednesday, the 17th of October, 2012 at Chennai.

... ... ... ... ..... mptive income and in this manner the order of DRP was set aside and AO was directed not to include the amount of service tax in the total receipts for determining the income under section 44BB. 8. Respectfully following the aforementioned decision of the co-ordinate bench of the Tribunal in the case of Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines(supra), which has considered the decision relied upon by ld D.R., we decide this issue in favour of assessee. It may also be mentioned that later on Delhi ITAT vide its decision dated 29.6.2012 in the case of Sedco Forex International Drilling Inc (supra) has admitted the position that service tax is a statutory liability which does not involve any element of profit and, therefore, cannot be included in the total receipts for determining presumptive income under section 44BB. Therefore, assessee's appeal is allowed on the issue raised before us. 9. In the result, appeal is allowed. Pronounced in the open court on 31st October, 2012 .

... ... ... ... ..... ing the deduction u/s. 80IB (10) in respect of the Housing Project “Rohan Heights” were not fulfilled, the assessee withdrew his claim. We further find that so far as disallowance made u/s. 40(a)(ia) is concerned, i.e. towards non-deduction of the TDS, nowhere it is the case of the A.O that any bogus claim is made by the assessee. In our opinion, the assessee’s case is squarely covered by the decision of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of CIT Vs. Reliance Petro Products Pvt. Ltd., 322 ITR 158 (SC). In the said case, their Lordships have held that merely because the claim is disallowed which is otherwise bonafide, the assessee cannot be subjected to penal consequences u/s. 271(1)(c) of the Act. Moreover, the Ld CIT(A) has considered the issue in detail. We find no reason to take different view but confirm the order of the CIT(A). 7. In result, the revenue’s appeal is dismissed. The order is pronounced in the open Court on 19th October 2012.

Ltd. 234 CTR 1, Rule 8D is applicable only from assessment year 2008-09 and for the year prior to assessment year 2008-09, the disallowance u/s 14A has to be made on some reasonable basis. Keeping in view the said decision of Hon’ble jurisdictional High Court, we set aside the impugned order of the learned CIT(Appeals) on this issue and restore the same to the file of the AO with a direction to the AO to recompute the disallowance to be made u/s 14A on some reasonable basis. Ground No.2 of the assessee’s appeal is accordingly treated as allowed. 8. In the result, the appeal of the assessee is treated as allowed for statistical purposes.

Having regard to all these facts of the case as recorded by the learned CIT(Appeals) in his impugned order which have remained uncontroverted/unrebuted by the learned DR, we are of the view that the source of jewellery in the hands of the partners of the assessee firm was duly explained and the said jewellery having been introduced by the partners in the assessee firm in the previous year relevant to assessment year 2003-04, addition u/s 69 or 69A on account of the said jewellery treating the same as unexplained cannot be made in the year under consideration.

... ... ... ... ..... age of stock when a comparison was made with the book stock and the stock found at the business premises of the assessee. Such short stock could only be deemed as sales made outside the books. Parties before us admit that investment in the purchase of goods dealt by the assessee is duly accounted for in the books of account. That being so, entire amount of sales could not have been brought to tax. It is only the gross profit margin on the sales effected outside the books by the assessee, could be alone treated as his income. We, therefore, direct the AO to apply the gross profit margin as declared by the assessee 23 on the sales of ₹ 2,98,629/-. The addition to that extent stands sustained and balance of the addition is directed to be deleted. 8. Ground No. 4 has not been pressed. The same has stands dismissed as not pressed. 9.
