2018 (10) TMI 1301 - HC - Income Tax


Issues:
Interpretation of tax liability components in the sale of electricity for computing relief under Section 80IA/80IB.

Analysis:
The High Court of Madras heard an appeal filed by the assessee against the order of the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal for the Assessment Year 2002-03. The substantial question of law in this appeal was whether the Tribunal was correct in holding that components of price for the sale of electricity fixed based on tax liability should not be considered part of the transfer price of coal and sale price of electricity when computing relief under Section 80IA/80IB. The appeal was admitted and tagged with another case previously decided in favor of the assessee. The previous case established that the tax component in the sale of electricity should not be excluded when considering relief under Section 80IA/80IB, even if it makes a reference to tax liability with respect to income streams. The legal position was not disputed by the Revenue's counsel. Consequently, the High Court allowed the appeal, following the decision in the assessee's earlier case and answering the substantial question of law in favor of the assessee. No costs were awarded in this judgment.
