Transfer of shares to a wholly owned subsidiary was a bona fide commercial reorganisation, not a colourable device, because the Revenue showed no sham, lack of commercial substance, or non-genuineness, and tax benefit alone could not invalidate the transaction. The Tribunal also held that the shares were capital assets and that section 47(iv) exemption applied since the assessee and subsidiary satisfied the statutory ownership conditions. The share valuation challenge failed because the Assessing Officer identified no specific defect in the recognised valuation method, assumptions, or projections. The addition was deleted.
