1 TAXATION OF CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETIES CA Pramod Shingte Pune In recognition of the importance of co-operative movement in modern society the governments of all states in India and the Central Government have provided several facilities, concessions and privileges which are peculiar to such societies registered under the Co-operative Societies Acts of different states in the country, though several of such societies may be engaged in commercial, industrial or social activities. Among such facilities or concessions are facilities or concessions in respect of payment of income tax liability. The Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, 1960 itself in Section 42 provides for granting exemption or reduction or remission in payment of stamp duty, registration fee, court fee and other taxes or duties which are within the competence of the state government to levy. Similar provision can be found in the Co-operative Societies Acts in force in other states in the country. A Co-operative Society registered under the Co-operative Societies Act is treated as an assessee liable to pay income tax under the provisions of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and every such society is therefore governed by the provisions of that Act and liable to be assessed to income tax as per the provisions of that Act like any other assessee. Activities of Co-operative Societies Co-operative societies may be formed for the purpose of carrying out different activities. Some co-operative societies are formed mainly for mutual benefit activities, whereas others are formed for carrying out business activities. A receipt out of an activity involving the principle of mutuality cannot partake the character of profit liable to tax. Therefore the receipts of co-operative societies, wherein the principle of mutuality is involved are not eligible to income tax. On the other hand receipts from business activities (not involving mutuality) are liable to tax. Section 80 P of the Income Tax Act has provided a number of exemption and deductions in respect of receipts or income from various kinds of activities carried on by the co-operative societies. A co-operative society may have a number of
2 activities. The income from some activities may be exempt from income tax, whereas income from other activities may not be so exempt. The Principle of Mutuality The principle of mutuality is applicable to mutual benefit funds for societies or members club. The basic principle underlain herein is that no one can make profit out of himself. [CIT v. Royal Western India Turf Club Ltd. (1953) 24 ITR p. 551 (SC)] In other words the general principle applicable to mutual concerns is that the surplus accruing to it cannot be regarded as income, profits or gains for the purpose of the Income Tax Act. The essence of mutuality is complete identity between contributors and participators. [CIT v. Kumbakonam Mutual Benefit Fund Ltd. (1964) 53 ITR p. 241 (SC)] In the aforesaid case, the Supreme Court has laid down that the essence of mutuality lies in the return of what one has contributed to a common fund, and if th profits are distributed as share holders, the principle of mutuality is not satisfies. In this case, the Supreme Court has also laid down that all participators must be contributors to the common fund; mere entitlement to contribute will not suffice. The Bombay High Court in the case of [Surat District Cotton Dealers Association v. CIT 35 ITR p. 121] has however held that identity of contributors and participators does not mean that there must be actual contribution by all members. The Madras High Court in the case of [CIT v. Madras Race Club (1976) 105 ITR p. 433] has held that the application of the principle of mutuality is not destroyed by the presence of transactions with, or profits derived from non-members. Similarly, the Patna High Court in the case of [CIT v. Ranchi Club Ltd. (1992) 196 ITR p. 137] (pat-fb) has held that merely because assessee company had entered into transaction with nonmembers and earned profit out of transactions held with them, its right to claim exemption on the principle of mutuality in respect of transactions held by it with its members was not lost. The Bombay High Court in the case of [CIT v. Bombay Oil Seeds and Oil Exchange Ltd.(1993) 202 ITR p. 198] has laid down that the cardinal principle to apply the test of mutuality is that all the contributors to the common fund must be entitled to participate in the surplus and that all the participators must be contributors to the common fund; in other words there must be complete identity between contributors and participators.
3 The Supreme Court in the case of CIT v. Bankipur Club Ltd. (1997) 226 ITR p. 97 (SC) has settled the aforesaid principle. The relevant part of the head note is as follows : under the income tax Act, what is taxed is the income, profits or gains earned or arising or accruing to a person Where a number of persons combine together and contribute to a common fund for the financing of some venture or object and in this respect have no dealings or relations with any outside body, then any surplus returned to those persons cannot be regarded in any sense as profit. There must be complete identity between contributors and participators. If these requirements are fulfilled, it is immaterial what particular form the association takes. Trading between persons associating together in this way does not give rise to profits which are chargeable to tax. Where the trade or activity is mutual, the fact that, as regard certain activities, certain members only of the association take advantage of the facilities which it offers, does not affect the mutuality of the enterprise. Chemsford Club v. CIT (2000) 243 ITR 89 (SC). The Supreme Court has further held that if the activity of a Mutual Concern or club is commercial in nature or it is a trade or an adventure in the nature of trade and the transaction entered into with the members or non-members alike, is a trade/business and the resultant surplus is profit the income is liable to tax. The relevant part of the head note is as follows: The decision of the Supreme Court in CIT v. Royal Western India Turf Club Ltd. (1953) 24 ITR p. 551; CIT v. Kumbakonam Mutual Benefit Fund Ltd. (1964) 53 ITR p. 241 and Fletcher (on his own behalf and on behalf of Trustees and Committee of Doctors Cave Bathing Club v. ITC (1971) 3 All ER 1185 (PC) lay down the broad proposition that, if the object of the assessee company claming to be a Mutual Concern or Club, is to carry on a particular business and money is realized both from the members and from the non-members, for the same consideration by giving the same or similar facilities to all alike in respect of the one and the same business carried on by it, the dealings as a whole, disclose the same profit earning motive and are alike tainted with commerciality. In other words, the activity carried on by the assessee in such cases, claming to be a Mutual Concern or Club is a trade or an adventure in the nature of trade and the transaction entered into with the members or non-members alike, is a trade/business/transaction and the resultant surplus is profit the income is liable to tax. On the basis of the aforesaid principle
4 the Supreme Court has held that excess over expenditure received by the club from facilities extended to it s members as part of advantages attached to such membership was not taxable as income. Thus, the receipts or surplus arising form the sales of drinks, refreshments etc., or amount received by way of admission fees, periodical subscriptions and receipts of similar nature from it s members, would be entitled to exemption. In this context other observations of the Supreme Court are also important. These observations are as follows: In other words, the services offered on the above counts were not done with any profit motive and were not tainted with commerciality. The facilities were offered only as a matter of convenience for the use of the members (and there friends, if any, availing of the facilities occasionally). From the aforesaid observations of the Supreme Court, it is clear that the principle of Mutuality will not be destroyed even if facilities offered by social club to it s members, are, once in a while, availed of by their friends or guests. Specific provisions under The Income Tax Act, 1961 : Under the Income Tax Act Co-operative Society enjoys a preferential status.
