1. M/s York Exports (P) Ltd. Vs. CIT, Writ Petition (Civil) No. 646/1997, Date of Decision: 14.08.2013, Delhi High Court
Section: 80HHC of the Income Tax Act, 1961
Decision: In favor of the assessee
The assessee
is eligible to claim the deduction u/s 80HHC on account of profits
derived from exports even if the sale proceeds in convertible foreign
exchange are not remitted within a period of six months from the end of
the previous year as the circumstances were beyond the control of the
assessee and the relief is not denied merely on account of late filing
of application. Accordingly, the Hon’ble High Court allowed the writ and
quashed the orders of the Revenue.
