The assessee contended that the accumulated profit of the company did not cover the loan amount and that the company had not actually advanced the loan to the assessee. The Tribunal found that the ITO and AAC had not fully considered the facts of the case, leading to a lack of clarity on the accumulated reserve and the alleged loan. The case was remanded for fresh enquiry and disposal. The CIT(A) upheld the assessment, considering the managing agency commission and other factors. The Tribunal, after considering submissions, found that the company had indeed advanced the loan to the assessee, and the legal provisions of s. 2(22)(e) were applicable. The Tribunal emphasized the concept of 'accumulated profits' and the fictional current profits up to the date of payment. The Tribunal concluded that all conditions of s. 2(22)(e) were satisfied, and the assessment of deemed dividend was in accordance with the law.Conclusion:The Tribunal dismissed the appeal, upholding the assessment of the loan as dividend under s. 2(22)(e) of the IT Act, 1961. The decision was based on the company's advance of the loan to the assessee, the concept of accumulated profits, and the legal provisions governing deemed dividends. The Tribunal found no grounds to interfere with the CIT(A)'s decision, as all conditions for deeming the loan as dividend were met.
