A.O. has not brought any evidence on record about motive of the assessee in indulging the transaction to earn loss. It is also on record that the transactions entered into by the assessee is with the SEBI regulated mutual fund scheme of a very big and reputed asset management company. Even remotely it can t be assumed that the intentions of the assessee are to earn the loss with the gloves in hand with a reputed AMC. We are in agreement with a finding of Ld. CIT(A) and sustained the deletions made by him. Hence this ground of appeal filed by revenue is dismissed. - ITA No. 1185 to 1187/Mum/2020 And ITA No. 1309/Mum/2020 And ITA No. 1310/Mum/2020 - - - Dated:- 10-8-2022 - Shri Aby T Varkey, Judicial Member And Shri Gagan Goyal, Accountant Member For the Appellant/Assessee : Sh.

Comes to Rs 609.823/-, whereas assessee received consideration of Rs 1183.704/- per share. This difference of Rs 5,73,881/- per share, considered as income under the head business and profession by applying sec 28(va) of the IT. Act 1961 by the A.O. being aggrieved with the assessment order passed, assessee preferred an appeal before the Ld. CIT(A)-53, Mumbai. 5. Ld. CIT(A) partly allowed the claim of the assessee and treated Rs. 59/- under the head Income from business and profession as compare to Rs 5,73,881/- as considered by A.O. assessee still being aggrieved preferred this appeal before us. 6. We have gone through and considered the order of the A.O., Ld. CIT(A) and submissions of the assessee along with factual and legal paper book filed by the assessee. Assessee was a shareholder in M/s KLIPL and holding shares to the tune of 3,13,270. This company KLIPL was part of Loparex BV (Netherlands based company).

A perusal of the above covenants clearly established the terms and conditions of the transactions and duties and rights of both the parties, without any specific consideration assigned to any of the covenant. It is clearly established that basically the transaction was entered into to buy the shares from assessee and other shareholders of KLIPL. 9. We have gone through the financials of the KLIPL for the year 2013-14 and 2014-15. The EPS was Rs 124.5/- and Rs 134.07/- respectively. It means purchase price of Rs1183.704/- is 8.82 times of the EPS. This ratio of 8.82 of EPS is not excessive or unreasonable assuming shares of KLIPL would have been listed although they are not. The overall transaction of this share sale looks to be fair and reasonable as evident from the order of the A.O. and the order of Ld. CIT(A). 10.

This clause clearly shows that in the purchase price of shares, consideration towards Restraint Clause was embedded. Admittedly, assessee on her own was not carrying on business and it was the company in which she was shareholder was carrying on the business, ... Thus, section 28(va) would be attracted where the assessee was carrying on business and not where assessee only had right to carry on business in the form of capital asset. 14. In view of the above facts, pronouncement of Hon ble High Court and jurisdictional ITAT, we are of the considered view that the assessee had rightly declared income under the head Capital gains. No portion of considerations can be attributed for the purposes of sec 28(va) hence we set aside the finding of Ld. CIT(A)., attributing 5% of the consideration as income covered by sec 28(va). 15. In the result, appeal filed by the assessee is allowed. ITA No. 1186/Mum/2020 (A.Y. 2016-17) 16. The facts and law applicable to this appea .....

Facts and figures involved are similar to what we discussed (Supra) in ITA No. 1187/Mum/2020 (A.Y. 2016-17). 21. Ground No-1 and 2, issues raised in these two grounds are already been discussed, analysed and decided in favour of assessee (ITA No. 1186/Mum/2020 (A.Y. 2016-17). Hence in the light of our decisions in assessee s appeal there is no need to further adjudicate these two grounds of appeal raised by revenue. In view of this, these two grounds became infructuous and accordingly dismissed. 22. During the AY under consideration assessee has claimed exempted income u/s 10(35) of the act on dividend income received on the units of Religare Invesco Contra Fund (Mutual fund) amounting to Rs 3,09,71,101/-. In addition to this assessee also claimed short term capital loss (STCL) of Rs 4,18.42,536/-. On the sale of abovementioned units of mutual Fund.
