2016 (4) TMI 344 - AT - Income TaxDeemed dividend u/s 2(22)(e) - whether the advances were loan for business purposes or otherwise - Held that:- The prima facie copy of accounts in the books of the company shows that assessee had paid much more than amount received from the company. The transactions were regular. The assessee produced the evidence before the lower authorities to justify the transaction as a business transaction on the basis of agreement to sale dated 22.7.2009. There were certain conditions as per this Ikrarnama, which could not be fulfilled by the assessee but it does not mean that assessee’s loans and advances are not for business purposes. The ld. A/R of the assessee has explained the reasons for not getting 90B done of agricultural land at village Ajayrajpura, Tehsil Sanganer as Draft Master Plan got changed by the JDA by draft Notification dated 10.11.2009 wherein it has been decided by the JDA that land use under 90B was to be approved not less than 25 acres but in final Master Plan this area has been reduced to 10 hectares. The assessee filed application on 23.08.2012 under section 90B of the Land Revenue Act before the JDA which was rejected by the JDA. The case laws relied on by the ld. A/R are squarely applicable on the facts of the case. Therefore, we hold that transactions made by the assessee and the company are for business purposes and are not deemed dividend under section 2(22)(e) of the Act. - Decided in favour of assessee
