Issues: Whether the addition made under section 56(2)(viib) of the Income-tax Act, 1961 on account of share premium received on issuance of compulsorily convertible preference shares and redeemable preference shares was justified.
Analysis: The assessee had issued compulsorily convertible preference shares to its holding company and redeemable preference shares to another company. No equity shares were issued. The valuation was supported by a report adopting the discounted cash flow method, which is one of the recognised methods under Rule 11UA of the Income-tax Rules. The Assessing Officer could not compel adoption of the net asset value method merely because the projections in the valuation report did not match later actuals. The valuation material and project feasibility details were placed before the Assessing Officer, and the redeemable preference shares were issued and transferred at the same price, supporting the stated value.
Conclusion: The addition under section 56(2)(viib) was not sustainable, and the deletion of the addition was upheld in favour of the assessee.
Ratio Decidendi: Where unquoted preference shares are valued by a recognised method permitted under Rule 11UA and supported by contemporaneous valuation material, the Assessing Officer cannot substitute a different method merely on the basis of later disagreement with the projections.
