        Tribunal rulings on tax appeals: Expenditure treatment, Section 14A disallowance, advances, TDS issues

        Sodexo Food Solutions India Private Limited (Formerly known as Radhakrishna Hospitality Services Private Limited) Versus Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax Range-8 (3) And Assistant Commissioner of Income Tax -8 (3), Mumbai

        Sodexo Food Solutions India Private Limited (Formerly known as Radhakrishna Hospitality Services Private Limited) Versus Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax ... Issues Involved:
        1. Disallowance of deferred revenue expenditure.
        2. Disallowance under Section 14A read with Rule 8D.
        3. Disallowance under Section 37(1).
        4. Advances written-off.
        5. Disallowance under Section 40(a)(ia).

        Detailed Analysis:

        1. Disallowance of Deferred Revenue Expenditure:
        The appeals for AY 2002-03 and 2003-04 contested the disallowance of deferred revenue expenditure. The assessee incurred expenses on renovation and refurbishing leased premises, which were treated as capital expenditure by the Assessing Officer (AO) and allowed depreciation thereon. The Tribunal noted that the nature of expenditure should be examined irrespective of the ownership of the premises. The Tribunal concluded that the expenditure was essential for business operations and formed part of the profit-earning process. Therefore, the expenditure should be treated as revenue expenditure, not capital, and allowed in the year of incurrence. The AO was directed to verify that deferred expenditure claimed in subsequent years was disallowed in those years.

        2. Disallowance under Section 14A read with Rule 8D:
        For AY 2009-10, the AO disallowed Rs. 10.73 Lacs under Section 14A for expenses related to exempt income. The Tribunal noted that the assessee had not earned any exempt income during the year. Citing various judicial pronouncements, the Tribunal held that no disallowance under Section 14A was warranted if no exempt income was earned. Consequently, the disallowance was deleted.

        3. Disallowance under Section 37(1):
        The AO disallowed Rs. 18 Lacs as penalty under FEMA, treating it as penal in nature. The Tribunal observed that the payment was for compounding a procedural lapse and was compensatory, not penal. The Tribunal relied on judicial precedents to conclude that such payments are allowable as business expenditure. Thus, the disallowance under Section 37(1) was deleted.

        4. Advances Written-off:
        The AO disallowed Rs. 115.52 Lacs of advances written-off due to lack of explanation. The Tribunal found that the assessee had provided a summary of the advances to the AO. However, the justification for writing off these advances was unclear. The Tribunal remitted the matter back to the AO for re-adjudication, directing the assessee to substantiate the basis for the write-off.

        5. Disallowance under Section 40(a)(ia):
        The AO made disallowances for late payment and short deduction of TDS. The Tribunal noted that late payment of TDS, if made before the due date of filing the return, does not attract disallowance under Section 40(a)(ia), citing the Delhi High Court's judgment. Regarding short deduction of TDS, the Tribunal followed the Calcutta High Court's decision, which held that short deduction does not warrant disallowance under Section 40(a)(ia). Thus, the disallowances were deleted.

        Conclusion:
        The Tribunal allowed the appeals for AY 2002-03 and 2003-04, treating the deferred revenue expenditure as revenue expenditure. For AY 2009-10, the Tribunal deleted the disallowance under Section 14A, allowed the claim under Section 37(1), and remitted the issue of advances written-off back to the AO. The Tribunal also deleted the disallowance under Section 40(a)(ia) for both late payment and short deduction of TDS. The revenue's appeal was partly allowed for statistical purposes.
