Issues involved: Appeal u/s 260A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 against ITAT order for assessment year 2011-12.
Issue 1: Whether receipt of fee in the nature of capitation fee by the Appellant Trust in excess of the permissible fee would render the Appellant Trust ineligible for deduction u/s 11 of the Income Tax Act, 1961? The High Court admitted the appeal based on the substantial question of law regarding the eligibility of the Appellant Trust for deduction u/s 11 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The main issue was whether the receipt of fee in the nature of capitation fee exceeding the permissible limit would disqualify the Trust for the deduction. The Court agreed to examine this question further. Issue 2: Whether the whole income of the Appellant Trust was liable to be taxed at the maximum marginal rate contrary to Section 164(2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961? Another substantial question of law raised in the appeal was regarding the taxation of the entire income of the Appellant Trust at the maximum marginal rate, which was challenged based on Section 164(2) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The Court decided to review whether the ITAT was correct in holding that the entire income of the Trust should be taxed at the maximum marginal rate. The High Court directed the Registry to provide a copy of the order to the Tribunal for reference, ensuring the availability of necessary papers for the appeal proceedings. Additionally, the Court rejected the Interim Application for lack of a case for granting interim relief.
