Syndicate (AOP) income and inadmissible syndicate expenses cannot be taxed to assessee; veil-lifting rejected, addition deleted
SC dismissed the petitions and upheld the HC, agreeing that the AO was not justified in treating the assessee's share of syndicate profits or its share of inadmissible syndicate expenses as the assessee's income. The Court held that income of an Association of Persons (syndicates) cannot be clubbed with the assessee, and ITAT's deletion of the addition was proper. The invocation of veil-lifting principles did not warrant treating syndicate income as assessable to the assessee.
Delay in filing condoned. After hearing learned counsel, the Court held that "The income of the Association of Persons(Syndicates) cannot be clubbed with the assessees." On that basis the Court concluded that the High Court "has not erred in passing the impugned order." Consequent orders: the petitions are dismissed and pending application(s), if any, stand disposed of. The decision affirms that income attributable to an Association of Persons (syndicates) is not to be aggregated with individual assessees for the purposes under challenge, thereby upholding the High Court's rationale and disposition.
