Section 10A and related deductions: Tribunal rejects separate-undertaking claim, but allows loss set-off, ESOP cost and foreign tax credit in principl...
Clause substitution in the trust deed was validly made and the trust beneficiaries comprise only relatives of the settlor; therefore the trust falls within the relatives-only exception to the gift-tax provision and the addition under Section 56(2)(x) relating to shares is deleted. Separately, an advance tax amount erroneously deposited in the trust PAN was not recorded in the earlier year, was later claimed as refund and accounted as a liability to the settlor; on these facts the amount is a repayable liability and not a gratuitous receipt, so the addition under the same provision is disallowed.
