ITAT held that where the payee has declared the receipts and discharged tax liability, the payer cannot be treated as an assessee in default under s.201/201(1A); the AO must first ascertain default before invoking disallowance. Applying this principle, the Tribunal found the taxpayer's contract involved a 4% supervision margin payable to the contractor for construction of an institutional facility and, given the charitable context and non-commencement of the project, afforded the assessee the benefit of doubt. The AO was directed to treat only the 4% margin as fees chargeable under s.194J. Other administrative and allied payments were sustained. Grounds were accordingly partly allowed.
