2014 (1) TMI 1235 - HC - Income Tax
Interest on fixed profit – Benefit of Section 10A and 10B of the Act - Whether the interest received and the consideration received by sale of import entitlement is to be construed as income of the business of the undertaking - Held that:- There is a direct nexus between this income and the income of the business of the undertaking - Though it does not par take the character of a profit and gains from the sale of an article, it is the income which is derived from the consideration realized by export of articles - In view of the definition of ‘Income from Profits and Gains’ incorporated in Subsection (4), the assessee is entitled to the benefit of exemption of the said amount as contemplated under Section 10B of the Act.
Profits and gains derived from export of articles is different from the income derived from the profits of the business of the undertaking - The profits of the business of the undertaking includes the profits and gains from export of the articles as well as all other incidental incomes derived from the business of the undertaking - what is exempted is not merely the profits and gains from the export of articles but also the income from the business of the undertaking - thus, the Tribunal was justified in extending the benefit to the amounts also – there was no merit in these appeals – Decided against Revenue.
