        ITAT restricts disallowance under Section 14A, affirms rental income treatment as 'Income from House Property.'

        Asstt. Commissioner of Income Tax- -Range-10 (1), Mumbai Versus M/s Rel Utility Engineers Ltd, (erstwhile M/s Reliance Infrastructure and Consultants Ltd., And Vice-Versa

        Asstt. Commissioner of Income Tax- -Range-10 (1), Mumbai Versus M/s Rel Utility Engineers Ltd, (erstwhile M/s Reliance Infrastructure and Consultants ... Issues Involved:
        1. Disallowance under Section 14A of the Income Tax Act.
        2. Treatment of rental income as 'Income from House Property' vs. 'Business Income'.
        3. Computation of Book Profits under Section 115JB.
        4. Admission of additional grounds by the assessee.

        Detailed Analysis:

        1. Disallowance under Section 14A:
        The revenue contested the CIT(A)'s reduction of disallowance under Section 14A from Rs. 1,84,75,704/- to Rs. 72,34,402/-. The CIT(A) had determined that the disallowance should consider only those investments that yielded exempt income, following the Special Bench ITAT Delhi decision in Chimenvest Ltd. vs. ITO. The CIT(A) also found that certain investments were incorrectly included by the AO as they were paid for in the next financial year and thus did not incur interest expenditure during the year. Consequently, the CIT(A) recalculated the disallowance to Rs. 72,34,402/-.

        The assessee argued that disallowance under Section 14A should not exceed the exempt income earned, which was Rs. 17,50,000/- in this case. The ITAT agreed with the assessee, citing several judicial precedents, including Joint Investments vs. CIT and Daga Global Chemicals vs. ACIT, which held that disallowance under Section 14A cannot exceed the exempt income. Consequently, the ITAT directed the AO to restrict the disallowance to Rs. 17,50,000/-.

        2. Treatment of Rental Income:
        The assessee argued that rental income of Rs. 36,72,000/- should be taxed as 'Business Income' and not 'Income from House Property'. The AO and CIT(A) treated it as 'Income from House Property' based on the Supreme Court decision in Shambhu Investment Pvt Ltd vs. CIT. The ITAT upheld this treatment, referencing a co-ordinate Bench decision in Reliance Infrastructure & Consultants Ltd. vs. ACIT, which followed the Supreme Court's ruling that income derived from letting out property should be assessed as 'Income from House Property'.

        3. Computation of Book Profits under Section 115JB:
        The assessee contended that disallowance under Section 14A should not be considered while computing book profits under Section 115JB. The CIT(A) and ITAT did not specifically adjudicate this issue separately, as the main ground regarding disallowance under Section 14A had already been addressed.

        4. Admission of Additional Grounds:
        The assessee filed an application for admission of additional grounds, arguing that the disallowance under Section 14A should be restricted to the exempt income earned. The ITAT admitted the additional grounds, noting that they arose from legal and judicial pronouncements after the date of the CIT(A)'s order and were of a technical and legal nature. The ITAT then adjudicated the additional grounds, directing the AO to restrict the disallowance to Rs. 17,50,000/-.

        Conclusion:
        The ITAT partly allowed the assessee's appeal by restricting the disallowance under Section 14A to Rs. 17,50,000/-. The ITAT dismissed the revenue's appeal on the same issue but allowed the revenue's appeal regarding the treatment of rental income, affirming it as 'Income from House Property'. The ITAT's order was pronounced on April 12, 2017.
