The tribunal held that sundry credit balances and excess provision written back should be treated as core shipping income under Section 115V(2), reversing the AO's decision to tax these under normal provisions. Various receipts including insurance claims, house rent recovery, bus service charges, and interest income were classified as profits from core shipping activities eligible for tonnage tax benefits. The tribunal allowed reasonable allocation of administrative expenses against incidental shipping activities based on turnover ratio. Commission on disbursements, bar/shop sales profits, and water charges recovery were treated as core activity income. The matter regarding foreign tax credit under Sections 90/91 was remanded to AO for fresh determination. Assessee's appeal was partly allowed; revenue's appeal dismissed. en-us Wed, 28 Feb 2024 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 16 Oct 2024 12:26:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=760137 ITAT Mumbai ruled on multiple issues concerning a shipping company's tonnage tax scheme application.
