One of the shareholder Mr Ajay has received dividends of Rs 67,000 and is holding 4% of the shares. In this case, his share in accumulated profits is Rs 80,000 and hence entire amount of Rs 67,000 received by him shall be considered to be dividend. Held in Shashibala Navnitlal that Issue of bonus shares does not entail release of any assets of the company as the asset side remains intact. Hence it is not treated as dividend u/s 2(22)(a). Held in Central India Industries Ltd. (SC) When assets are distributed under section 2 (22) (a), the market value of the asset on the date of distribution has to be taken for computing the dividend. Question 1: A Ltd has accumulated profits of Rs 4,00,000 excluding capitalized profits i.e. bonus shares of Rs 1,00,000 issued in the past. The company distributed assets of Rs 3,50,000 to the shareholders.

Payment on behalf of shareholder: Section 2(22)(e) covers not only advances and loans to shareholders but any other payments by the company on behalf of or for the benefit of individual shareholders, such as payments of shareholders personal expenses like air tickets etc., insurance premium, etc., to the extent of the accumulated profits of the company. If any such loan was given to more than one such shareholders, accumulated profits shall be reduced by the amount of the loan given to the earlier shareholder. As decided in CIT v. G.

(b) Interest on loan: Interest on money borrowed for purchasing the shares can be claimed as deduction. This deduction can exceed the amount received by way of dividend. It interest is payable outside India, TDS must be done, otherwise deduction is not available. Practically, dividend declared by Indian company is exempt, hence above deductions cannot be claimed. But still dividend declared by foreign companies / cooperative societies is taxable and so deductions discussed above can be claimed.

Ans: INTEREST ON SECURITIES: Such income is taxable under the head Profit and gains of business or profession, if the securities are held as stock-in-trade. And if they are held as investment, the interest will be taxable under the head Income from other sources. Interest on securities is taxable for the registered owner of securities, i.e. who is registered owner on the date, on which the interest falls due, even if he is not the owner of security for the period for which the Interest is being paid. For example, if the due date of interest for Debentures of XYZ Ltd. is 31 st March, then who so ever is the owner of debentures on 31 st March, shall be entitled to receive the interest for the full year, as well as he is taxable for the same, even though he might have purchased these debentures just one or two month back. It is the gross amount, which is taxable. Grossing up of Interest: Interest is paid after TDS at following rates: Govt. Securities: Nil (In case of 8% saving bonds, if amount of interest exceeds Rs 10,000 then there is a 10%) Listed / Non listed securities: 10% 100 Formula for grossing up: Net amount received X (-) rate of TDS Note: No tax is deductible on debentures issued by a widely held company if interest is paid/payable to an individual, resident in India and the aggregate amount of such interest paid or payable during the financial year does not exceed Rs Assessment Year For sms only Page 17

18 Expenses deductible from Interest income The following expenses can be claimed as deductions from grossed up Interest income : (a) Collection charges: e.g. commission or remuneration to a banker or any other agent/broker for the purpose of realising the interest. (b) Interest on loan: Interest on money borrowed for purchasing the securities can be claimed as deduction. This deduction can exceed the amount received by way of interest. If interest is payable outside India, TDS must be done, otherwise deduction is not available. Basis of charge Interest on securities is chargeable on receipt basis if the books of accounts of such income are maintained on cash basis. If, however, books of accounts are not maintained or maintained on the basis of mercantile system of accounting, then interest on securities is taxable on accrual basis. Deduction of collection charges, interest on borrowed capital is allowed as per the method of accounting followed by the assessee. Interest exempt from tax [Sec. 10(15)] Interest on the following is exempt from tax: 1. Interest on notified securities, bonds or certificates: a. National Defence Gold Bonds, 1980 b. Special bearer bonds, 1991 c. Post office Cash certificates d. National Plan Certificates e. National Plan Savings certificates f. Post Office National Savings Certificates g. Post Office Savings Bank Account h. Post Office Cumulative Time Deposit Rules,1981 i.

Interest on notified bonds/ debentures of Public Sector companies 5. Interest on deposits in a specified scheme made by a retired govt./public sector employee out of retirement benefits. 6. Interest on Gold Deposit bonds 7. Interest received by a non-resident Indian from notified bonds (i.e. NRI bonds). Question 16: Discuss the various tax avoidance measures taken by investors to avoid tax on interest on securities. Ans: Bond Washing transactions and Chargeability of Interest (Section 94) Section 94(1) : The holder of securities is normally assessable on the whole interest, which falls due on the date of interest. But this rule is not applicable to bond washing transactions. A bond washing transaction consists of selling of securities just on the eve of due date of interest and buying back securities after the due date of interest is over. Thus, a high-income group assessee may avoid or reduce his tax liability by transferring the securities before the due date of interest to a person (generally a friend or relative) who has no taxable income or whose rate of tax is quite low. Assessment Year For sms only Page 18

19 As a result, the whole interest is includible in the income of the transferee who holds the securities on the due date of interest. Thus the tax liability may be wholly avoided or substantially reduced depending upon the total income of the transferee. To prevent this, it has been provided [under Sec. 94(1)] that the whole interest in respect of a bond washing transaction is deemed to be the income of the transferor and not that of transferee. Section 94(2): Another method of avoiding tax is sale of securities cum-interest. Section 94(2) provides that if an assessee, having beneficial interest in securities during the previous year, sells them in such a way that either no income is received or income received is less than the sum he would have received if interest had accrued from day to day, then income from such securities for such year would be deemed as income of such person. Exceptions: The assessing officer shall not apply the above rule in the following cases: (1) If the assessee proves to the satisfaction of the Assessing Officer that there has been no avoidance of income tax; or (2) If the assessee proves that the avoidance of income tax is exceptional and not systematic; and there was no avoidance of income tax in any of the three preceding years. Question 17: Family pension is taxable as. If there any deduction allowed against such income? Ans: Standard deduction in the case of family pension [Sec. 57(iia)] In the case of income in the nature of family pension, the amount deductible is Rs. 15,000 or 33 1 / 3 per cent of such income, whichever is less. For this purpose family pension means a regular monthly amount payable by the employer to a person belonging to the family of an employee in the event of his death. Question 18: Whether income from letting of machinery, plant, furniture are. Ans: Income from letting out of machinery, plant or furniture [Section 56(2)(ii)] Income from machinery, plant or furniture, belonging to the assessee and let on hire, is chargeable as income from other sources, if the income is not chargeable to Income-tax under the head Profits and Gains of Business or Profession. In case any such assets are hired out as a part of the business activity carried on by the assessee or as commercial assets belonging to the assessee, the income derived there from is assessable as business income u/s 28 and not as income from other source u/s Assessment Year For sms only Page 19

20 Question 19: Discuss the taxation of composite letting of building and furnitures. Ans : Income from composite letting of machinery, plant or furniture and buildings [Section 56(2)(iii)]: Where an assessee lets on hire the machinery, plant or furniture belonging to him and also buildings, and the letting of the buildings is inseparable from the letting of the said machinery, plant or furniture, the income from such letting, known as composite rent, if it is not chargeable to Income tax under the head Profits and gains from Business or profession, shall be chargeable as income from other sources. Deductions permissible from letting out of machinery, plant or furniture and buildings [Section 57(ii) and (iii)]: The following deductions are allowable: (a) Current repairs, rates and taxes of the building if given to others on composite rent. {Rent and taxes, however, shall be subject to Section 43B as in the case of Business or Profession}. (b) Insurance premium against risk of damage or destruction of the premises. (c) Repairs and insurance of machinery, plant or furniture. (d) Depreciation as per section 32 (e) Any other expenditure, expanded wholly and exclusively for the purpose of making or earning such income. Question 20: Write a note on tax treatment of Deep Discount bonds. Ans : Deep discount bonds : Vide Circular No. 2/2002, dated February 15, 2002, the Board has issued certain clarifications. Position before issue of circular no. 2/2002 : The Board had earlier clarified that the difference between the bid price (subscription price) and the redemption price (face value) of such bonds will be treated as interest income assessable under the Income-tax Act. On transfer of the bonds before maturity, the difference between the sale consideration and the cost of acquisition would be taxed as income from capital gains where the bonds were held as investment, and as business income where the bonds were held as trading assets. On final redemption, however, no capital gains will arise. Example : - Subscription Price = 5,000 Face Value = 1,00,000 Situation I : No Sale of Bonds takes Place : Rs.1,00,00 Received on Maturity. As per Tax Provisions Rs.95,000 is taxable as Interest Income in the year of Maturity. No Capital Gain will be attracted. Situation II : Bonds sold before Maturity Date Selling Price (-) Subscription Price = Capital Gain the year of sale. No Interest Income will arise. Position after issue of circular no. 2/2002 : Substantial changes has been made vide Circular No. 2/2002 which are given below. These are applicable only in respect of bonds issued after February 15, 2002 : Assessment Year For sms only Page 20

21 (1) Every person holding a Deep Discount Bond will make a market valuation of the bond as on the March 31 of each financial year. (2) The difference between the market valuations as on two successive valuation dates will represent the accretion to the value of the bond during the relevant financial year and will be taxable as interest income (where the bonds are held as investments) or business income (where the bonds are held as trading assets). (3) Where the bonds is transferred at any time before the maturity date, the difference between the sale price and the cost of the bond will be taxable as short-term capital gains in the hands of an investor or as business income in the hands of a trader. For computing such gains, the cost of the bond will be taken to be the aggregate of the cost for which the bond was acquired by the transferor and the income, if any, already offered to tax by such transferor upto to the date of transfer. (4) Where the bond is redeemed by the original subscriber, the difference between the redemption price and the value as on the last valuation date immediately preceding the maturity date will be taxed as interest income in the case of investors, or business income in the case of traders. (5) Investors holding Deep Discount Bonds up to an aggregate face value of Rs. 1,00,000 may, at their option, continue to offer income for tax in accordance with the earlier clarifications issued by the Board referred to in para above. Example : Subscription Price on 8 th October 2012 = Rs.10,000 Market Value on 31 st March, 2013 = Rs.18,000 On 31 st March, 2014 = Rs.29,000 Treatment for Previous Year , interest income will be = Rs.18,000 (-) Rs.10,000 = Rs.8,000 Interest Income for Previous year = 29,000 (-) 18,000 = 11,000 If Bonds sold during Previous Year the cost shall be taken as 10,000. If Bonds sold during then cost shall be =18,000. If Bonds sold during , then cost shall be = 29,000. Interest on National Savings Certificates: REFER CHAPTER DEDUCTIONS UNDER SECTION 80C TO 80U.
