Issues involved: Appeal against order of Commissioner of Income-tax (Appeals) for Assessment Year 2005-06, addition u/s.36(1)(va) for EPF contribution, disallowance of expenditure on commission u/s.40(a)(ia).
Addition u/s.36(1)(va) for EPF contribution: The appeal was dismissed as nothing was argued on this ground during the hearing. Disallowance of expenditure on commission u/s.40(a)(ia): The assessee, a Private Limited Company in real estate business, filed an appeal against the disallowance of payment of commission amounting to &8377; 1,13,000 u/s.40(a)(ia) of the Income-tax Act,1961. The Assessing Officer added this amount to the total income of the assessee during assessment. The assessee contended that the provision of Section 40(a)(ia) applies to amounts "payable" but not "paid," citing relevant authorities and circulars. The Tribunal agreed with the assessee, stating that the TDS requirement under Section 40(a)(ia) is on amounts "payable" and not on amounts "paid" already. Therefore, the disallowance made by the Departmental authorities was deemed unsustainable, and the ground raised by the assessee was allowed. The appeal of the assessee was partly allowed as a result. Separate Judgement: None.
