As the assessee society was not registered u/s.12A of the I.T.Act, 1961, the provisions of section 11 of the Act are not applicable for which the AO has determined the status as AOP and also taxed the gross receipts of the assessee under the head "income from other sources" and due to failure on its part to produce the details of books of account/bills and vouchers to substantiate the genuineness of expenditure claimed. 2.

During the course of assessment proceedings, assessee has claimed that entire donation received by the assessee trust under the mandate of 'donation for assets', hence same could not be considered as income. It was stated that some of the income was utilized for incurring expenses and some of the money were utilized for purchase of assets. Therefore, assessee submitted that assessee is not entitled for registration under section 12A of the Act but assessee is entitled for claiming expenses.

We noted that ld CIT(A) has clearly held on the basis of decision in the case of Normal Agricultural Society vs. ITO (supra) that it is only net income, which can be added even if the assessee trust is not entitled for relief specified under section 11 & 13 of the Act. In our opinion, the findings given by ld CIT(A) are duly supported by the decision of Coordinate Bench in the case of Nirmal Agricultural Society vs. ITO (supra).
