        Tribunal rules in favor of assessee, partly allowing appeals for AYs 2010-11 and 2011-12. Order on 29th June.

        M/s. Total Environment Building Systems Pvt. Ltd. Versus The Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle-7 (1) (1), Bangalore

        M/s. Total Environment Building Systems Pvt. Ltd. Versus The Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, Circle-7 (1) (1), Bangalore - TMI Issues Involved:
        1. Taxability of maintenance advance.
        2. Addition of unpaid service tax liability under section 43B.
        3. Disallowance of sales tax liability.
        4. Disallowance of interest under section 201(1A).
        5. Disallowance of interest paid to NBFC under section 40(a)(i).
        6. Disallowance of depreciation on computer software under section 40(a)(ia).
        7. Disallowance of contributions to superannuation fund.
        8. Disallowance of interest on borrowed funds.
        9. Disallowance under section 14A.

        Issue-wise Detailed Analysis:

        1. Taxability of Maintenance Advance:
        The Tribunal observed that the assessee received advances from customers at the time of handing over possession of apartments, which were accounted as current liabilities. The Ld.CIT(A) directed the Ld.AO to compute the amount of expenditure incurred from the maintenance advance received and then bring it to tax. The Tribunal upheld this direction, noting that maintenance advances do not partake the character of income unless the services are rendered. The decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Sundaram Finance Ltd vs. CIT was found distinguishable.

        2. Addition of Unpaid Service Tax Liability under Section 43B:
        The Tribunal noted that the unpaid service tax liability was retained as part of current liabilities and was not debited to the P&L account, thus section 43B was not applicable. The Tribunal remanded the issue to the Ld.AO to verify if the liability was discharged before filing the return of income, in line with the decision in Essae Teraoka (P.) Ltd.

        3. Disallowance of Sales Tax Liability:
        The Tribunal admitted the additional ground for AY 2011-12 since the sales tax demand was raised and paid during that year. The demand notice was received during the financial year relevant to AY 2011-12, and the liability was discharged in that year. Thus, the disallowance for AY 2010-11 was dismissed, and the additional ground for AY 2011-12 was allowed.

        4. Disallowance of Interest under Section 201(1A):
        The Tribunal held that interest under section 201(1A) is compensatory and not penal in nature, and directed the Ld.AO to delete the disallowance, following the decision in Resolve Salvage & Fire India (P.) Ltd. v. DCIT.

        5. Disallowance of Interest Paid to NBFC under Section 40(a)(i):
        The Tribunal remanded the issue to the Ld.AO to verify if the payee had paid the taxes on the interest component. If the payee had paid the taxes, the disallowance should be deleted, in line with the decision in CIT v. Sahara India Commercial Corpn. Ltd.

        6. Disallowance of Depreciation on Computer Software under Section 40(a)(ia):
        The Tribunal noted that depreciation is an allowance and not an expenditure, thus section 40(a)(ia) is not applicable. This was supported by the decision in PCIT vs. Tally Solutions (P.) Ltd., and the ground was allowed.

        7. Disallowance of Contributions to Superannuation Fund:
        The Tribunal remanded the issue to the Ld.AO to consider the approval dated 18.09.2017 for the superannuation fund, as the approval was applied for on 27/02/2008. The ground was allowed for statistical purposes.

        8. Disallowance of Interest on Borrowed Funds:
        The Tribunal noted that the AO did not establish a nexus between the loans received and the payment of advance tax. The borrowed funds were fully utilized for business purposes, and thus no addition was warranted.

        9. Disallowance under Section 14A:
        The Tribunal directed the Ld.AO to rework the disallowance under section 14A based on investments that yielded tax-free income, following decisions from various High Courts that section 14A cannot be invoked when no exempt income was earned.

        Conclusion:
        The Tribunal dismissed the revenue's appeal and partly allowed the assessee's appeals for AYs 2010-11 and 2011-12. The order was pronounced on 29th June 2022.
