CIT(A) has stated that “the claim of the appellant that all the income of partners of the firm has been include in the income of the appellant is also not fully verifiable from the documents filed by the appellant. In light of above discussions, we set-aside the matter in both the years to the file of the AO with the directions to verify whether the corresponding income in respect of which TCS has been claimed by the assessee firm has been brought to tax in the hands of the asessee firm or not. Where after due examination and verification, the AO find that the corresponding income has been brought to tax in the hands of the assessee firm, the AO is directed to allow credit for TCS in the hands of the assessee firm. - ITA No. 676/JP/15, ITA No. 991/JP/15 - - - Dated:- 11-1-2017 - Shri Kul Bharat, JM And Shri Vikram Singh Yadav, AM Ass .....

As far as sub-rule (2) of Rule 37BA is concerned, the appellant has not fulfilled the conditions laid down in the proviso to sub-Rule (2). Therefore, no credit can be given to the appellant. Sub Rule (4) also states that credit for the tax deducted at sources shall be granted on the basis of information relating to deduction of tax furnished by the deductor to the income tax authority or the person authorised by such authority. As in the case under consideration, the deductor has informed that names of the person in respect of whom the tax has been collected at source are names of partners of the appellant firm, therefore, I am of the considered view that the AO was justified in not giving credit of TCS claimed by the assessee. The appellant has filed copy of the order of CIT(A), Ajmer dated 07.03.2012 but with due respect to my predecessor, for the reasons discussed above, I do not agree with his view of this issue.

Furthermore, the findings recorded by the ld. CIT(A) to the effect that the members of AOP has not claimed any TDS/TCS in the individual returns, therefore, the assessee AOP is entitled for credit of TCS/TDS in respect of income earned by the AOP.
