Ircon International Limited, New Delhi vs Acit, New Delhi on 31 October, 2019

This proposition is unassailable. One cannot take resort to a principle or rule of accountancy when the Act provides specifically for the situation at hand. But when the situation is one where there is no definitive provision, a Court can take resort to well accepted accountancy rules and principles. The Supreme Court in Tuticorin Alkali Chemicals (supra) has not derogated from this principle enunciated in Challapalli Sugar Mills Ltd. (supra).

The provision was made as per the accounting policy followed by the appellant in accordance with accounting standards notified by Central Government. Following the accounting standard, the assessee adopted the accounting policy to provide losses arising on market to market basis in respect of outstanding contracts in the light of available information.

Smt. Amita Narang, Delhi vs The Dy Commissioner Of Income Tax, Jammu on 29 March, 2019

4.5 At this stage, it may also be relevant to dwell on the nature of the interest cost. The interest cost represents the time cost of funds. That is, relates to the period for which the funds are borrowed or made available by one person, at a cost, to another. The same would stand to be incurred irrespective of the purpose for which the funds borrowed are deployed. Where, therefore, the acquisition of an asset itself involves, and essentially so, time, as where it is under construction, the corresponding interest cost, i.e., relatable to the construction period, would qualify as a cost of acquisition in-as-much as the same is incurred for bringing the asset into existence, as approved in Challapalli Sugars (supra), a decision followed in CIT v. Bokaro Steel Ltd. [1999] 236 ITR 315 (SC) and Collector of Central Excise v. Dai Ichi ,Karkaria Ltd. [1999] 156 CTR 172 (SC), upholding the principle of commercial accounting, which in fact stands since formalized per accounting standard, stating likewise (refer AS 10 by ICAI). How would then, a cost, which has nothing to do with the acquisition cost of the asset and, besides, relates to the period after its' acquisition, be regarded as a part of the acquisition cost? How, one may ask, could the acquisition cost vary with the period for which the capital asset is held, as the interest cost would? Again, how could the date of its' sale and, thus, the period for which it is held prior thereto, determine its' cost.

M/S. India Metal One Steel Plate vs The Deputy Commissioner Of Income on 13 June, 2019

In the case of Challapalli Sugars Ltd. v. CIT [1975] 98 ITR 167, this Court examined the question whether interst paid before the commencement of production by a company on amounts borrowed for the acquisition and installation of plant and machinery would form a part of the actual cost of the asset to the assessee within the meaning of that expression in Section 10(5) of the Indian Income-tax Act, 1922 and whether the assessee will be entitled to depreciation allowances and development rebate with reference to such http://www.judis.nic.in 12 interest also. The Court held that the accepted accountancy rule for determining cost of fixed assets is to include all expenditure necessary to bring such assets into existence and to put them in working condition. In case money is borrowed by a newly started company which is in the process of constructing and erecting its plant, the interest incurred before the commencement of production on such borrowed money can be capitalised and added to the cost of the fixed assets created as a result of such expenditure. By the same reasoning if the assessee receives any amount which are inextricably linked with the process of setting up its plant and machinery, such receipts will go to reduce the cost of its assets. These are receipts of a capital nature and cannot be taxed as income.
