Shaw Wallace & Co. Ltd. vs Dy. Cit on 28 February, 2001

12. We find that, as observed by Honble Supreme Court in the case of Dr. K George Thomas v. CIT (supra), "the burden is on the revenue to establish that the receipt is of a revenue nature" though "once the receipt is found to be of revenue character, where it comes under exemption or not, it is for the assessee to establish". No doubt that the Income Tax Act imposes a general liability to tax upon all income, but it does not provide that whatever is received by a person must be regarded as income liable to tax. In all cases in which a receipt is sought to be taxed as income, the burden lies upon the department to prove that it is within the taxing provisions. However, where a receipt is proved to be in the nature of income, the burden of proving that it is not taxable because it falls within an exemption provided by the Act lies upon the assessee. In the case before us, revenue has not sufficiently discharged its onus of proving that the receipt in question is a revenue receipt in nature. The revenue has at best made efforts to demonstrate that the receipt in question is not taxable as a capital gain and, therefore, it can only be in nature of revenue receipt. However, there is a glaring fallacy in this argument, since merely the fact that a receipt is not taxable as a capital gain would not imply, or even suggest, that such a receipt is revenue receipt. There can always be, and have been, cases in which receipts are held to be capital receipts in nature and yet not chargeable to tax as a capital gain.

Institute Of The Fransican ... vs Union Of India on 22 December, 2016

44.In the case of Dr.K.George Thomas vs. Commissioner of Income Tax reported in (1985) 156 ITR 0412, the question was whether donations received by the assessee therein constituted income. The said assessee carried on a vocation of preaching against atheism and received donations for the furtherance of the objects of his vocation. It was held that the receipts arose to the assessee from the carrying on of the vocation by the assessee and these were not casual and non-recurring and were taxable. What is important to note is that the said assessee was not a missionary though belonged to christian religion and he appears to be an evangelist associated himself to a religious mission in United States of America. Therefore, the said decision does not help the case of the revenue.

Al-Madeena Charitable Trust vs Assistant Commissioner Of Income-Tax on 1 November, 1999

35. Coming to the alternative plea that the voluntary contributions should be treated as gifts or capital receipts and are not taxable, the same cannot be accepted in view of the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Dr. K. George Thomas case (supra). This was the case of an assessee who got educated in the USA and came to India. He started running a magazine 'Viswa Deepam' and for achieving this object collected money through the Indian Gospel Mission in the USA. Subsequently the assessee started publishing a newspaper called 'Kerala Dwani'. The assessee received/collected donations from abroad and returned a loss income under the head 'business'. When the assessee was asked to explain the credits which were noticed on scrutiny, the assessee said that they were donations received from USA through an Organisation known as Indian Christian Crusade, USA. The names of the persons who had donated were not available. It was contended that the receipts were purely personal gifts for the personal qualities of the assessee and that the payments were voluntary. When the matter was carried before the Tribunal, the Tribunal held that the receipts were casual and non-recurring in nature and did not arise in the course of exercise of any vocation. The High Court found that the receipts had arisen from the exercise of an occupation by the assessee and should have been included in the total income. The Hon'ble Supreme Court held that the assessee was carrying on a vocation of practising against atheism and the donations received by him from USA for the furtherance of the objects of his vocation were not casual and non-recurring receipts. In the instant case of the assessee, the assessee has produced certificates from the donors who had donated more than Rs. 6,000 to establish that they are donations towards the corpus. Since we have held that the assessee's business is not incidental to the attainment of the objects of the trust, the benefit of section 11(1)(a) which reads as under -
