Sales Tax Subsidy from Dadra & Nagar Haveli Classified as Revenue Receipt Based on Operational Purpose

June 6, 2025

Case Laws     Income Tax     AT

ITAT held that sales tax subsidy received from Dadra & Nagar Haveli is a revenue receipt, not a capital receipt. The tribunal determined the subsidy's nature based on its purpose, finding it was granted to assist ongoing business operations rather than for capital asset creation or expansion. The subsidy, provided annually from 2002 to 2016 after production commencement, was deemed taxable income. The assessee had no specific obligation to utilize the funds for a particular purpose, thus supporting its classification as a revenue receipt. Consequently, the appeal grounds were dismissed, affirming the Assessing Officer's original tax treatment.
