On 20th December 2022, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal Mumbai pronounced a judgement in the case titled ACIT Vs Triple Securities Pvt. Ltd against the appeal filed by the Revenue challenging the order, dated 05.10.2021, passed by the Ld. CIT (Appeals), NFAC, Delhi for the AY 2016-17 whereby the Ld. CIT(A) had partly allowed assessee’s appeal against the Assessment Order, dated 30.12.2018 passed under section 143(3) of the IT Act 1961. The tribunal held that the provisions of 43CA can’t be invoked in the presence of consensus between the parties.

The present article discussed the aspects covered in the case.

With regard to the first issue, the tribunal held that the provisions of 43CA can’t be invoked as, firstly, the assessee wasn’t the owner of the land or the old building and was merely working on the building for the purpose of redevelopment of the same and had allotted the additional land as per the terms and conditions of the minutes of the meeting which the Deputy Chief Engineer, MBR&RB on 7th August officially signed. Thus, the additional area allotted to tenants could not be considered stock-in-trade for the Assessee as the Assessee was never entitled to hold/sell the same.
Regarding the second ground of appeal, it was observed by the tribunal that since the assessee had taken the loan from Bajaj Finance for the purpose of redevelopment, which is part of the business purpose of the assessee rather than the personal purpose. The deduction cannot be disallowed by the assessee, thereby upholding the disallowance of u/s 36(1)(iii).
The judgement provides clarity on the applicability of section 43CA of the IT Act and the circumstances wherein the provisos of this section can’t be invoked by the Assing Officer along with the clarifications regarding the disallowance of u/s 36(1)(iii). The said case can be a great precedent for future cases and help in avoiding any confusions on such subject.
