The surplus of receipts over expenditure derived by the assessee-club does not go to any person in the capacity other than as contributor or consumer. Therefore, the assessee club is not a trade association nor is the excess a profit taxable as income from other sources - Surplus received by the assessee-club is not income. It is therefore, not taxable either under section 10 as business income or under section 12 as income from other sources.
