of <h1>Tribunal rules on deemed dividend: Outstanding loan balance key.</h1> <h3>Shri Prakash Narain Singh, Versus Assessing Officer, Ward-25 (3), New Delhi.</h3> The Tribunal determined that the maximum outstanding balance of loans taken by the assessee from a company should be treated as deemed dividend u/s ... - Issues involved: Appeal against order of CIT(A) u/s 147/143(3) of IT Act for AY 2004-05 regarding addition u/s 2(22)(e) of IT Act.Summary:The appeal was filed by the assessee against the order of CIT(A) for the assessment year 2004-05, concerning the addition made u/s 2(22)(e) of the IT Act. The assessee, a director in two companies, received loans and advances from one of the companies, leading to the reopening of assessment by the AO. The AO treated the loans as deemed dividend u/s 2(22)(e) of the Act, which was confirmed by CIT(A) and challenged by the assessee.Upon review, it was established that the assessee had substantial interest in the company from which the loans were taken, making the amount liable to be treated as deemed dividend u/s 2(22)(e) of the Act. The contention was raised that the peak amount of loan outstanding at any point during the year should be considered for taxation as deemed dividend, rather than the total amounts received and repaid. The Tribunal agreed that the maximum outstanding balance at any point of time should be taxed as deemed dividend, taking into account the business nature of certain transactions and regular repayments made by the assessee.After analyzing the statement of account, the Tribunal determined the maximum outstanding balance during the year to be taxed as deemed dividend, which was lower than the amount assessed by the lower authorities. Consequently, the orders of the lower authorities were modified, directing the AO to tax the maximum outstanding balance as deemed dividend u/s 2(22)(e) instead of the initially assessed amount.Ultimately, the appeal of the assessee was allowed in part, with the decision pronounced on 20th October 2010.
