    Inventory recording requirement under ICDS II now mandates service providers to maintain inventories and disclose valuation for tax purposes.

    Show AI Summary
    Valuation of Inventories: ICDS II applies to traders and dealers of primary commodities while excluding producers.
    ICDS II governs valuation of inventories for income computation and disclosure. The standard is excluded for a producer of primary goods like livestock, agricultural and forest products, mineral oils, ores and gases, but it applies to persons who trade or deal in those commodities; therefore the producer/dealer distinction determines whether ICDS II applies.

    Show AI Summary
    ICDS II valuation excluded for closely held company shares when ICDS VIII classifies them as securities outside its scope.
    Shares of a company in which the public are not substantially interested are excluded from ICDS II valuation even if held as inventory, because ICDS VIII's definition of securities expressly includes such shares, placing them outside ICDS II's scope.
    ManualsIncome Tax
    Does the provisions of ICDS II apply on derivatives.
    Show AI Summary
    ICDS II applicability to derivatives: derivatives held as inventory fall under ICDS II because securities exclusion applies.
    Where an assessee holds derivatives as part of inventory, the valuation and related provisions of ICDS II apply because the definition of securities in ICDS VIII expressly excludes derivatives, so such instruments are governed by the inventory valuation standard rather than the securities disclosure regime.

    Disclosure of accounting policies: ICDS requires taxpayers to disclose net ICDS effect in returns and tax audit report.
    ICDS I mandates disclosure of significant accounting policies and requires the net effect on taxable income from application of ICDS to be disclosed in the Return of Income; ICDS disclosures are to be made in the tax audit report in Form 3CD, with no separate disclosure requirement for persons not liable to tax audit.

    Marked-to-market gain recognition: ICDS I's non-recognition rule for MTM loss applies equally to gains.
    Recognition of marked-to-market losses or expected loss is disallowed under ICDS I unless permitted by other ICDS provisions; the same conditional rule applies mutatis mutandis to recognition of marked-to-market gains or expected profit, so gains or anticipated income may not be recognised for income computation unless another ICDS expressly authorises recognition.

    Accounting Policies: treat ICDS I as computation policies affecting taxable income computation, not books of account.
    ICDS I should be read as prescribing computation policies for taxable income so that accrual, going concern, consistency, substance over form and non recognition of mark to market losses apply to income computation under business or other sources, and the disclosure requirement concerns the policies used in computing income rather than the policies used for maintaining books of account.

    Show AI Summary
    Interpretation of undefined tax terms: ICDS provisions generally govern unless declared ultra vires by a competent authority.
    Where a term in the ICDS coincides with terminology in Accounting Standards, the AS interpretation generally applies; where no AS analogue exists, judicial tax-law interpretations ordinarily govern. If a current ICDS provision conflicts with earlier AS or judicial interpretations, the ICDS provision will prevail for tax computation and disclosure unless declared ultra vires by a competent court or authority.

    Show AI Summary
    ICDS applicability: ICDS do not apply to MAT on book profit but apply to AMT on adjusted total income.
    ICDS do not apply to MAT because MAT is computed on book profit as per the Profit and Loss Account under company law, with specific statutory adjustments; ICDS are not incorporated into that book profit basis. ICDS apply to AMT because AMT is calculated on adjusted total income derived from total income determined under the regular tax provisions, and ICDS affect that regular computation.

    Show AI Summary
    ICDS applicability may govern specified transactional tax issues, raising whether prior judicial precedents remain operative.
    The ICDS, notified under section 145(2), are intended to standardise computation of business and other income for the transactional issues they address and apply to assessment years following notification. They were framed after reviewing judicial views to supply authoritative guidance where earlier judicial decisions arose without statutory standards; nevertheless, some ICDS provisions may conflict with those precedents, posing a question about which authority should prevail.

    Show AI Summary
    ICDS application: accounting standards govern business income computation for exempt trusts, triggering ICDS when commercial books are maintained.
    ICDS do not apply to the standalone computation of exemption for charitable entities based on the commercial concept of income; however, when income is taxed under the regular heads, ICDS apply to income classified under Profits and Gains of Business or Profession and Income from Other Sources if books are kept on the mercantile system. If a trust carries on incidental business with separate books, business income must be computed on a commercial basis and ICDS apply to that business income despite entitlement to charitable exemption.

    Show AI Summary
    Applicability of ICDS may indirectly determine whether TDS provisions apply by altering gross receipts/turnover calculations.
    ICDS influence the computation of gross receipts/turnover used to determine whether statutory TDS provisions apply; while ICDS govern income computation and not TDS rules, their application to receipts can indirectly change whether individuals, HUFs or presumptive taxpayers cross the turnover benchmarks that attract TDS obligations.

    ICDS applicability: applies to taxable income computation under business or other income irrespective of Ind AS adoption.
    For computing taxable income under the heads Profits and Gains of Business or Profession and Income from Other Sources, ICDS provisions govern determination of income irrespective of whether an entity follows erstwhile Accounting Standards or Ind AS for financial reporting; companies adopting Ind AS must apply ICDS adjustments when computing taxable income under those heads.

    Show AI Summary
    ICDS applicability to non-residents ensures income is determined under ICDS before flat-rate tax treatment on passive receipts.
    ICDS applies to non-resident income taxed at a flat rate-such as interest, royalty and fees for technical services-because the flat tax is applied after determination of income, so Income Computation and Disclosure Standards govern measurement and recognition for computing taxable income.

    An assessee may change the method of accounting from mercantile to cash basis if the change is bona fide and is followed regularly thereafter; such a change is distinct from a change in accounting policy and must be consistently applied to support proper income computation and disclosure.

    Accounting method application: ICDS governs sources using the mercantile system but not sources accounted on a cash basis.
    ICDS applies at the source level: it governs only those sources where the assessee follows the mercantile (accrual) system of accounting and does not apply to sources maintained on the cash system, a distinction intended to prevent escapement of income caused by heterogeneous accounting across an assessee's activities.

      Rationalisation of provision of transfer of capital asset to partner on dissolution or reconstitution

      The existing provisions of section 45 of the Act inter alia, provides that any profits or gains arising from the transfer of a capital asset shall be chargeable to income-tax under the head Capital gains and shall be deemed to be the income of the previous year in which such transfer takes place. Further sub-section (4) of the said section, provides that the profits or gains arising from the transfer of a capital asset by way of distribution of capital assets on the dissolution of a firm or other association of persons or body of individuals (not being a company or a co-operative society)or otherwise, shall be chargeable to tax as the income of such firm or other association of persons or body of individuals of the previous year in which the said transfer takes place. Further, the fair market value of the asset on the date of such transfer shall be deemed to be the full value of the consideration for the purposes of section 48.

      In this regard, it has been noticed that there is uncertainty regarding applicability of provisions of aforesaid sub-section to a situation where assets are revalued or self- generated assets are recorded in the books of accounts and payment is made to partner or member which is in excess of his capital contribution.

      Hence, it is proposed to substitute the existing sub-section (4) of section 45 of the Act with a new sub-section (4) and also insert a new sub-section (4A) to this section.

      New proposed sub-section (4) of section 45 of the Act applies in a case where a specified person who receives during the previous year any capital asset at the time of dissolution or reconstitution of the specified entity. The capital asset represents the balance in the capital account of such specified person in the books of the specified entity at the time of its dissolution or reconstitution. In this situation, the profit and gains arising from the receipt of such capital asset by the specified person shall be chargeable to income-tax as income of the specified entity under the head “capital gains” and shall be deemed to be the income of such specified entity of the previous year in which the capital asset was received by the specified person. For the purposes of section 48 of the Act, the fair market value of the capital asset on the date of such receipt shall be deemed to be the full value of the consideration received or accruing as a result of the transfer of the capital asset. The balance in the capital account of the specified person in the books of account of the specified entity is to be calculated without taking into account increase in the capital account of the specified person due to revaluation of any asset or due to self-generated goodwill or any other self-generated asset.

      New proposed section sub-section (4A) of section 45 of the Act applies in a case where a specified person receives during the previous year any money or other asset at the time of dissolution or reconstitution of the specified entity. The money or other asset is required to be in excess of the balance in the capital account of such specified person in the books of accounts of the specified entity at the time of its dissolution or reconstitution. In this situation, the profits or gains arising from the receipt of such money or other asset by the specified person shall be chargeable to income-tax as income of the specified entity under the head "Capital gains" and shall be deemed to be the income of such specified entity of the previous year in which the money or other asset was received by the specified person. For the purposes of section 48 of the Act,

      • value of the money or the fair market value of other asset on the date of such receipt shall be deemed to be the full value of the consideration received or accruing as a result of the transfer of the capital asset; and

      • the balance in the capital account of the specified person in the books of accounts of the specified entity at the time of its dissolution or reconstitution shall be deemed to be the cost of acquisition.

      The balance in the capital account of the specified person in the books of account of the specified entity is to be calculated without taking into account increase in the capital account of the specified person due to revaluation of any asset or due to self- generated goodwill or any other self-generated asset.

      For the purposes of these two sub-sections,-

      • specified person” is proposed to be defined as a person who is partner of a firm or member of other association of persons or body of individuals (not being a company or a cooperative society), in any previous year;

      • “specified entity” is proposed to be defined as a firm or other association of persons or body of individuals (not being a company or a cooperative society);and

      • “self-generated goodwill” and “self –generated assets” are proposed to be defined as goodwill or asset, as the case may be, which has been acquired without incurring any cost for purchase or which has been generated during the course of the business or profession.

      Consequential amendment is also proposed in section 48 of the Act to provide that in case of specified entity, the amount included in the total income of such specified entity under sub-section (4A) of section 45 which is attributable to the capital asset being transferred, shall be reduced from the full value of the consideration to compute income charged under the head “capital gains”. This is to be calculated in the manner to be prescribed later. This is to mitigate the double taxation which may have happened but for this provision in a situation where an asset which was revalued and for which income under the proposed sub-section (4A) of section 45 of the Act was brought to tax is transferred subsequently by the specified entity.

      These amendments will be effective from the 1st April, 2021 and will accordingly apply to the assessment year 2021-22 and subsequent assessment years.
