of <h1>High Court Reverses Tribunal Decisions on Eligibility Issues, Directs Reconsideration</h1> <h3>Commissioner of Income-tax, Cochin Versus Kar Mobiles Ltd.</h3> Commissioner of Income-tax, Cochin Versus Kar Mobiles Ltd. - TMI Issues:1. Eligibility of the respondent-assessees for deduction under Section 80HHC with respect to the profit on transfer of DEPB benefit.2. Reversal of Bombay Tribunal's order by the Bombay High Court in Commissioner of Income Tax v. Kalpataru Colours & Chemicals.3. Consideration of expenditure on the issue of bonus shares in ITA No. 267/2010.Analysis:1. The judgment revolves around the challenge to remand orders issued by the Tribunal regarding the computation of deduction under Section 80HHC for the respondent-assessees. The Assessing Officer had denied the benefit of the proviso introduced through an amendment by Finance Act, 2005 with retrospective effect from 1-4-1998 to the assessees. The CIT (Appeals) confirmed the assessments, and the Tribunal directed the Assessing Officer to recompute the deduction based on the decision of the Bombay Tribunal. However, the High Court highlighted that the issue was not about computation but rather the eligibility of the respondents for the benefits under the proviso. The High Court allowed the appeals by setting aside the Tribunal's orders solely on the eligibility issue and directed the Tribunal to first consider eligibility before computation based on the Bombay High Court's decision.2. The judgment also addressed the reversal of the Bombay Tribunal's order by the Bombay High Court in Commissioner of Income Tax v. Kalpataru Colours & Chemicals. The High Court noted that the issue in this case was not about computation but the eligibility of the respondents for the benefits under the proviso. The High Court decided to allow the appeals by setting aside the Tribunal's orders on this issue and restoring the matters to the Tribunal for a fresh consideration of eligibility before computation.3. Another issue raised in ITA No. 267/2010 was regarding the expenditure on the issue of bonus shares. The High Court referred to the decision in CIT v. General Insurance Corpn., where the Supreme Court had already decided against the Revenue on this issue. Following the Supreme Court's judgment, the High Court dismissed the appeal on the expenditure related to the issue of bonus shares, aligning with the precedent set by the Supreme Court in this regard.
