    Extension of start up incorporation cutoff expands section 80 IAC eligibility, applying from the stated effective assessment year onward.
    The amendment extends the incorporation cutoff so that enterprises incorporated on or before 1st April 2024 qualify as eligible start ups for the three year full deduction under section 80 IAC, subject to the existing turnover ceiling, Inter Ministerial Board certification and other statutory conditions, and is to have effect from 1st April 2023 for the relevant assessment year and subsequent years.

    Carry-forward loss relief extended for startups, easing shareholding continuity requirement to permit set-off of past losses.
    Amendment extends the proviso to the carry forward and set off rule so that eligible start-ups may set off carried forward losses incurred within ten years of incorporation under the existing shareholders-continuity relaxation, aligning this period with the ten-year reference in the start-up incentive provision; the change applies from the assessment year 2023-24.

    Cash transaction limit relief for primary co operatives raises the threshold before penalty for member transactions.
    The amendments raise the electronic payment threshold for primary agricultural credit societies and primary co operative agricultural and rural development banks so that acceptance of loans or deposits from, or repayment to, their members will be required to be by account payee cheque, account payee bank draft or online bank transfer only where the amount equals or exceeds two lakh rupees; penalties will attach only above that threshold.

    TDS threshold for co-operative societies increased, altering cash withdrawal TDS applicability and retaining higher deduction rates for non-filers.
    The Finance Bill, 2023 amends Section 194N to treat co-operative societies as if the statutory cash-withdrawal TDS threshold were replaced by a higher threshold for the purpose of that section, effective from the start of the next financial year, while preserving the existing non-filer deduction rates and the statutory definition of non-filer.

    Deductibility of sugarcane purchase price: recomputation permitted for co-operative mills where prices meet government-fixed approvals.
    Confirms that payments by sugar co-operative mills for purchase of sugarcane at prices equal to or less than government-fixed or approved rates are allowable as a deduction for computing business income. Where such deductions were previously claimed and disallowed, an assessee may apply to the tax authority for recomputation of total income for the relevant previous year; the authority must allow the deduction to the extent the expenditure meets the qualifying price condition and apply rectification provisions and the prescribed processing period.

    Agniveer Corpus Fund tax exemption: contributions and Seva Nidhi receipts exempt, government contribution treated as salary with deduction.
    The Agnipath Scheme creates a non-lapsable Agniveer Corpus Fund holding Agniveer contributions, matching Government contributions and interest; Seva Nidhi is the one-time terminal package payable on completion of engagement. The Finance Bill proposes to exempt Seva Nidhi receipts from income tax and to permit deduction from total income of both the Agniveer's deposits and the Government's matching contributions, while treating the Government contribution as salary with a corresponding deduction and extending a similar deduction in the new tax regime.

    Payment timing for micro and small enterprises: tax deduction allowed only on actual payment when MSMED timelines are missed.
    An amendment to Section 43B inserts a clause disallowing accrual-based deduction for sums payable to micro and small enterprises when payment is made after the time limits prescribed by the MSMED Act; the proviso to Section 43B will not apply to such payments, and only payments made within the MSMED timelines qualify for accrual-based deduction.

    Writ jurisdiction protects review where specialised tribunals act beyond statutory powers; tribunals may only inquire into fraud.
    Writ jurisdiction remains available to correct a tribunal acting without statutory power; NCLT lacked jurisdiction to adjudicate MMDR Act lease disputes, so a writ challenging its order was justified. NCLT/NCLAT may inquire into allegations of fraud in CIRP, but they cannot adjudicate substantive statutory or quasi judicial disputes that require judicial review of administrative action.

    Corporate guarantor liability: written acknowledgement restarts limitation and permits insolvency proceedings against the corporate debtor.
    A corporate guarantor qualifies as a corporate debtor liable to insolvency proceedings where its liability mirrors the principal borrower's, and a written acknowledgement of liability restarts the limitation period, enabling a financial creditor to initiate insolvency proceedings despite an earlier default date; factual and other objections remain open for merit-based adjudication in the insolvency forum.

    Interpretation of basic excise duty: exemptions do not extend to separately enacted cesses or ancillary excise levies.
    An exemption of basic excise duty must be given a strict, literal construction limited to that duty alone; it does not extend to duties or cesses-such as National Calamity Contingent Duty, education cesses, additional or auxiliary excise duties-that are imposed by different legislation or for different purposes.

    Procedural Amendments to Civil Procedure reinforce expedited summons, alternative dispute resolution and affidavit-based witness examination.
    The Supreme Court upheld the 1999 and 2002 amendments to the Code of Civil Procedure as procedural reforms to expedite litigation. Key clarifications include issuance of summons within thirty days under Section 27 provided plaintiffs have completed enabling steps; promotion of Alternative Dispute Resolution under Section 89 with suggested rules and case management; Order 7 Rule 11 permitting rejection of plaints for specified noncompliance but allowing rectification; and Order 18 Rule 4 requiring examination-in-chief by affidavit subject to court discretion and permitting mechanical recording of evidence.

    Acknowledgement of debt extends limitation for IBC filings; recovery certificate or decree creates fresh cause of action to initiate CIRP.
    An acknowledgment in writing by a corporate debtor of a subsisting liability restarts the limitation period for initiating CIRP; a final judgment, decree or a recovery certificate, if dues remain unpaid, gives rise to a fresh cause of action permitting a financial creditor to initiate insolvency proceedings within the applicable limitation period measured from the date of that judgment, decree or certificate. Limitation questions are mixed fact and law issues requiring pleaded facts and evidence, and pleadings in an insolvency petition may be amended or supplemented when appropriate.

    Advance ruling immunity limitation: pending enforcement investigations bar AAR consideration and provide no protection.
    The advance ruling mechanism provides tax certainty for proposed or completed transactions, but is inapplicable where the same question is the subject of enforcement proceedings. An applicant seeking a rate and classification ruling for works for a central housing body was found to have concurrent enforcement enquiries and prior inspection, search and seizure, bringing the case within the statutory proviso that excludes advance ruling consideration; clarification that "proceedings" covers enforcement chapters reinforces that AAR cannot provide immunity from ongoing investigations.

    Proper officer requirement invalidates notices issued by unauthorized DRI officials; statutory authority required for issuance.
    A show cause notice issued by an Additional Director General of the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence was held not to be issued by a proper officer under the Customs Act, 1962; show cause notices must originate from an authority expressly empowered by statute, rule, notification or other lawful instrument, and notices issued by officers outside the statutory definition of proper officer lack validity and cannot ground further proceedings.
    Case LawsGST

    Writ petition as bypass of statutory remedies is impermissible; statutory remedy under tax law must be pursued first.
    Writ petitions cannot be used to bypass available statutory remedies in tax matters; where a statutory remedy under the GST law exists, a taxpayer must pursue that remedy before invoking writ jurisdiction. In the present facts, detention of goods and demand of tax and penalty led to a writ challenge which the High Court entertained on factual grounds, but the superior forum set aside that order and directed pursuit of the statutory remedy, noting the narrow exceptions permitting writ relief were not shown.

    Reopening assessments beyond four years barred where full and true disclosure eliminates omission to disclose material facts.
    Reopening an assessment beyond four years is permissible only if there was an omission to disclose material facts; where the assessee had fully and truly disclosed loan and interest details and the assessing officer merely sought a different view on deduction versus capitalization using the same material, the condition precedent for reopening under the proviso is not met and the notice to reopen cannot be sustained.

    Principles of natural justice require hearing before rejecting an SVLDRS declaration, prompting fresh reconsideration with a speaking order.
    An administrative rejection of an application under the Sabka Vishwas (Legacy Dispute Resolution) Scheme, 2019 for alleged ineligibility was found to have failed procedural fairness by denying notice and hearing. The court required the Designated Committee to reconsider the declaration after affording the applicant a hearing with prior intimation and to issue a reasoned speaking order reflecting the scheme's remedial purpose.

    Extension of limitation period grants a 90-day filing window from March, or the longer balance where applicable.
    Suo motu measures made the period from 15.03.2020 to 28.02.2022 excluded from computation of limitation and made any balance of limitation available from 01.03.2022; where limitation expired in that window, a 90 day period from 01.03.2022 applies, subject to any longer balance. The exclusion covers arbitration, commercial courts, negotiable instruments and related periods for instituting proceedings, condoning delay and termination timelines.

    Option to pay fine in lieu of confiscation: reassess imported used car value and penalty before absolute confiscation.
    Rejection of the declared transaction value of an imported used car cannot rest solely on a Chartered Engineer report without due consideration of the importer's documentary submissions; where importation was not prohibited and only a policy condition on prior foreign use was breached, the authority must re determine assessable value and consider the option to pay a fine in lieu of confiscation, including reassessment of penalty quantum and incidental charges.

    Show AI Summary
    Jurisdictional validity of show-cause notices: notices by officers lacking statutory authority are invalid and challengeable despite alternate remedies.
    Show-cause notices issued by officers of the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence who are not proper officers under the statutory scheme suffer from a jurisdictional defect and are non est; where proceedings are wholly without jurisdiction an alternate remedy does not preclude challenge, and show-cause notices must have statutory backing and not be used as instruments of harassment.
