of <h1>High Court Upholds Tribunal Decision on Income Tax Disallowance: Precedents & Evidence Key</h1> <h3>ACIT, Circle-1, Durgapur Versus Dutta Automobiles Pvt. Ltd.</h3> ACIT, Circle-1, Durgapur Versus Dutta Automobiles Pvt. Ltd. - TMI Issues:1. Addition of advance from customers.2. Disallowance of expenses under section 40(a)(ia) of the Income Tax Act.Issue 1: Addition of advance from customers:The appellant, a dealer of Hero Honda two wheelers, appealed against the order of the Commissioner of Income Tax (Appeals) regarding the addition of advances from customers. The Assessing Officer disallowed the amount of Rs. 4,72,37,518/- received as advance from customers after field inquiries revealed discrepancies. However, the CIT(A) deleted the addition based on previous decisions in the appellant's favor for the assessment year 2010-11. The appellant argued that the advances were adjusted in the sale price of motorcycles, and the total sale consideration received matched the amounts shown in the accounts. The Calcutta High Court upheld the Tribunal's decision, supporting the appellant's position. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, as the issue was covered by the High Court's decision.Issue 2: Disallowance of expenses under section 40(a)(ia) of the Income Tax Act:The Revenue challenged the CIT(A)'s deletion of Rs. 8,58,786/- and Rs. 93,55,197/- in expenses disallowed by the Assessing Officer under section 40(a)(ia) of the Act. The Assessing Officer disallowed these expenses as TDS was not deducted on payments made for 'freight and insurance' and 'advertisement expenses.' The CIT(A) found that the amounts charged by Hero Moto Corp Ltd. were inclusive of transportation and insurance charges, constituting a composite bill. As the appellant did not pay any transporter separately, the CIT(A) deleted the addition for 'freight and insurance' expenses. Regarding the 'advertisement expenses,' the CIT(A) verified that TDS was duly deducted based on the documents furnished by the appellant. The Revenue's appeal was dismissed as no defects were found in the CIT(A)'s order, leading to the dismissal of the Revenue's appeal.In conclusion, the ITAT Kolkata upheld the CIT(A)'s decision to delete the additions in both issues, emphasizing the importance of previous judicial precedents and factual evidence in determining the tax liabilities of the appellant.
