II.  Direct Tax Case Law:

Asstt. CIT Vs. M/s The Upper India Chamber of Commerce, ITA No. 601/LKW/2011, Assessment Year 2008-09, Date of Pronouncement: 05.11.2014, ITAT - Lucknow

Whether the deeming fiction created by virtue of section 50C in determining capital gain can be extended to section 11(1A).

Held_NO

In brief, the assessee trust register u/s 12A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 and invested net consideration form transfer of capital asset in acquisition of new capital asset. However, the AO has made the addition by applying provisions of section 50C of the Act. The Hon’ble ITAT confirmed the order of CIT(A) wherein it was held that Section 11(1A) is a complete code which lays down a complete system of taxability of Capital Gains in respect of an institution registered u/s 12A. Furthermore the section 11(1A) has specifically defined the meaning of "net consideration" for the purposes of capital gains and so the same shall prevail over the deemed sale consideration as provided u/s 50C.

The provisions of section 50C create a limited fiction to the effect that the full Value of consideration shall be substituted in the provisions of section 48 by the amount taken by the sub-registrar for registration purposes. The fiction contained in section 50C cannot be applied for the purpose of section 11(1A). In view of this, what is relevant for the purpose of section 11(1A) is the reinvestment of the net amount actually realized and not any notional amount as may be adopted by virtue of sec. 50C.Therefore, the appeal of revenue is dismissed.
