Delayed filing returns

Hello Experts,,

Plz suggest me regarding two queries:-

1) My income is taxable since the last three years.But I had not filled returns Although TDS were deducted on most occasions but not all.
So if I file my return now will I have to pay any penalty?If yes, then at what rate & is there any way to avoid that??

2)I'm salaried employee & So as I know I can get an exemption upto 1.6L & another 1L for investments.Now is there any other means by which I can get exemption on income above that(considering all my income is from salary only).

Section 143(2) & 144 of Income Tax Act, 1961

We, a private limited company having regd. office at Delhi and Head Office at Ghaziabad, filing our return of income for last 12 years at Ghaziabad from head office address. Returns of income were also processed u/s 143(1) at Ghaziabad. Return of income for the A Y 2006-07 mentioning therein address of Ghaziabad was submited electronically. The case was selected for scrutiny under (CASS). Necessary notice u/s 143(2) was issued but by ITO of Delhi. No notice was received by the company or any of its director. A final notice was issued by Delhi ITO on the directors of the company which was also received but on the date of hearing itself. Hence it was not possible to appear on the date fixed. Order u/s 144 was passed by Delhi ITO adding all the amount of share capital, unsecured loans and 20% of sales. There was no fresh share capital issued or unsecured loan received during the year under question. We are now in appeal with CIT challenging the jurisdiction of the Delhi ITO. Delhi ITO is saying that he has the jurisdiction over case due to our address available with IT PAN Data base which is of our regd. office at Delhi. Let me know what cource of action is best in this case.

Section 68 of Income Tax Act, 1961

We, a private Limted company, sold certain shares in other closely held companies which were held as investment. Sales consideration was received through cheques. The investigation deptt of I Tax, find that the purchaser companies were entry operator. The directors of the purchaser companies also accepted and given oath that no real transaction was entered into by their companies. Their denial was general in nature not to a particular transaction. Our case was opened u/s 148. We have submitted the purchaser's confirmation, their IT details but AO has added all consideration received on account of sale of shares held as investment u/s 68 of the IT Act. Now we are in appeal with CIT. Let me know what we have to do now. Is there any case law decided which will go in our favor. I appeal we taken the view that sec. 68 is not applicable in our case as we have not received any sum on account of cash credit, share capital, unsecured loan or share application money rather it is case of sale of investment.

Tax Audit u/s 44AB of the IT Act

Since from 1984 the tax audit provision u/s 44AB has been introduced and the turnover was Rs.40 lakhs. Now this turnover has increased to 60 lakhs. With compare to indexation the increase of turnover limit is too meagre.And the advocates who are practicing the tax matters can not audit u/s 44AB. All my colleagues are requested to raise this question in higher leve. Why this discrimination even though the advocates are capable to do the audit

Salaries/ consultations to trustees

Dear Ma'am/ Sir,

Hello!

I write to you for guidance in revising the internal HR policies of the Public Charitable Trust I work for.

The trust has 3 trustees, all of whom are highly qualified professionals in their respective fields. Currently, the trust is implementing a project funded by other national and international funding agencies. As the involvement of the three trustees is on daily basis and the work they are doing for the said project is what they would do anywhere as professionals, we are trying to figure out if they can be paid "reasonable" charges for their services which are out of the scope of administering the trust as trustees.

For almost a year, we also tried working without them, but as the team is not yet able enough to undertake such a project on their own, we had to request them to commit extensive time to the activities of the project- time that in normal circumstances would generate income for them. This is happening on daily basis for two and twice a week basis for one of the trustees. As a result, the first two are unable to take up any jobs outside.

We are aware that Section 12AA has specific conditions to tax exemption but at the same time sub section 3 informs that trustees may be paid a salary or consulting fees within reasonable amount of that they would be paid anywhere else. The three trustees are charging much less than what they would get, either in private practice or elsewhere in an organization.

Please let us know what is the right way of going about in this case.

Thank you,

Suzan Fernandes
